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


Recommended Posts

Hi ladies,

 

I just posted in another area of this website, but I wanted to be sure to also post my comment here...

 

 

Hi Ladies, Its been awhile since I've been on this site and I'm very sad to say its to report disturbing news.  I just read about a bride who drowned while having her pictures taken by a waterfall.  The article is here: http://uk.news.yahoo.com/bride-dies-waterfall-plunge-021733081.html

 

I am sharing this, because like many destination brides, I also had a trash the dress session by the beach.  I absolutely love my pictures and am very happy we did one.  However, we quickly moved from thigh high to only ankle high in the water.  My dress was very quickly becoming saturated with water and extremely heavy.  Had I gone up to my knees or stayed at the thigh height, I could easily have been carried away.  I couldn't even get out of the water on my own.  My husband had to lift the dress in the back.

 

I wore my knock-off dress that was A-line with an extremely long cathedral train.  It was made out of Organza fabric and full of beading.  

 

I'm attaching a couple of my pictures so you'll how little we were in the water by the last picture.  If you were thinking about doing a trash the dress session - I highly recommend it.  It's fun and the pictures are always great.  Just please be careful.  Have fun, but be careful.

Ok I posted the links but the post is bn held for moderation. But its jasminesbridalshop(dot)com and they have a blog which u can visit from the link at the bottom of their webpage or by adding /blog to the web address above. U can also do a search on facebook for Jasmines Bridal Shop. They post real pictures of their dresses on the blog and facebook page and that gave me the confidence (as well as the lovely dresses posted here by other brides) to order from them.

    • 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!
