Post all "Knock Off Wedding Dress" questions/comments here


Recommended Posts

Thankyou so so much for the kind comments! They mean a lot, especially as I can't show my bridesmaid (she just got engaged a few days ago so don't want to steal her "moment"!) or Mum (away until weds) so its lovely to have feedback and encouragement :)

 

It is so well constructed. 12 bones. Five layers -  lace on tulle,  soft tulle,  thick satin, hard net and a soft silky inner skirt to keep the hard net from touching my legs.

 

Anyone considering ordering from DressilyMe...DO IT! The sooner you order the less time you have to wait for it to arrive haha.

 

It is a little long which is strange as I am 6ft tall and had planned to wear flat shoes but maybe I'll just have to wear heels now. A hoop might help a bit too :)

 

Ooh yes, the colour is perfect. Normal bridal shop Ivory, not cream, not white, not yellowy or alabaster or oyster just a nice slightly creamy ivory. Thankyou for your guidance on that!

 

Heres 2 more pics , the bodice (on the floor and not a great angle, sorry) and the lace edge of the skirt.

I did it! I finally ordered my dress from BabyOnline. Sunny has been so great to work with and very responsive. I washing to order the Inbal dress but after trying on a similar dress - it's not the right style for me... I need more support in the front due to having a large chest. I found a Pnina custom dress I LOVED so I'm jumping the gun and ordering it. 400 400 What do you think?!?! I'm actually really excited. Instead of pinks I requested shades of ivory & creams.

What do I think? I think you have fantastic taste in dresses!!! Really beautiful, please post pics when you get it! It looks so "organic" somehow with the really soft looking skirt just melting into the dress. Congrats on taking the plunge ;)

 

I tried on my dressilyme dress properly with my mum this afternoon and I'm in love with it :) Will post pics later (probably tomorrow now), can't tonight as H2B is next to me.

Hmm I love it. But it's by Mark Zinnio, not Pnina...sorry I'm a Tamra fan lol. It is a beautiful dress. I'm excited to see how it turns out!!!

I have a 2 hoop fishtail petticoat on underneath, think I'll make the hoops a teeny bit smaller when I have the dress shortened. The veil isn't the one I will be wearing.

 

Please excuse the sheet I'm standing on to keep the dress clean and the various wedding packaging strewn about the place! Mum had to take the pics from the patio hence the strange photos of the door and net curtains, sorry they aren't the best.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
