Where you get your dress from will depend on where you are - are you UK or US? If in the UK how about Monsoon they have some really lovely stuff. If you want to keep the wedding low key or low cost BHS do a good bridal range too...

Hi, well the best thing is to look in all your local wedding dress shops. and try on a few as a dress that might no look nice on the hanger it could look wonderful on. I kept trying on all the big flowing dresses but they did look nice but never made me feel like it was the dress for me, So i tried one on just for the sake of trying it and it was the dress it fit well and was perfect.
It all depends on how much you are wanting to spend also as the shop i went to didnt tell me how much it was till i actually chose the dress. But if its not a problem then im sure you will find one eventually.
My dress is an Amanda Wyatt dress called Charlize, you could maybe take a look at her website and see if there is any stockist in your town. I hope you find the dress you are wanting. Good Luck.

Hi! Congrads!:) I just got married this past August, lovely month. There are some really elegant ivory or pale colored simple flowing gowns (mermaid style would be really elegant to those ball gowns) at most bridal stores these days. I actually got a Japanese silk taffita dress from Davids Bridal in golden ivory that was not expensive. However, I would also really suggest going to an elegant small store that specializes in cocktail dresses. They always have pretty pale colored dresses that are beautiful alternative to the overdone normal wedding dresses. I highly recommend the store USA GROUP who specializes in providing affordable gowns for any occassion. Good luck!

where are you from? since i dont know where you are from im just taking a guess. any department store would be benefitial to you. you can get a good deal on a lovely, elegant, yet simple dress. nothing over-the-top because it seems you want something thats effortless to pull off. any questions contact me, i work with a company called EA Wedding Planner. good luck :)

This may sound crazy, but check Ebay. There are some great things there, especially from sellers with their online shop setup so you can browse everything they have. Good Luck!

WELL, depending on how much u wanna spend - i wud suggestmaybe getting something made from an indian taylor. they are brilliant - and it wont be wot you think - like all overpowering and stuff. they can make it to your body shape - to your exact specification - in any material - with any type of embroidery (like threaded, beaded, jems....You can have a one piece, 2 piece - wotever. My friend even had a headband and gloves made. and they look so lovely and elegant. its was lovely!! something different, dont you think?

The sales are on now so take advantage.
Go to department stores, or big shopping malls.
