hi,iv just recieved my wedding dress,i bought it at***8******* (based in china!) i thought that i wouldnt really like it as i had only seen the pic of it,but i read the reviews and people were pleased with the dresses,so i decided to go ahead with it as they are soooo cheap. as soon as i open the box i fell in LOVE with it. its so amazing. i would recomend this site to other brides to be. mine cost £130 inc p&p. it fits perfectly,im normally a size 8,but orderd a size 10 (as i heard wedding dresses are made smaller) im on a budget of £5000,so i didnt want to pay loads for the dress( and not forgeting im only going to wear this dress once!) has any one else orderd online?

Hey, thats great that you've found your perfect dress online, ive been searching the net and found loads that i like but im never sure if they would suit me!! i went into monsoon at the weekend and tried on some dresses they were beautiful but ive not made my mind up yet. We are also on a tight budget and are looking into the holiday inn package for £1000 i dont know whether you've heard of it but its a bargain!! When are you getting married? xxx

I think the holiday inn package is different for wherever you are, i am from leicester and the £1000 package includes ceremony room hire, 2 course wedding breakfast for 30 guests, drinks reception for 30 guests, evening buffet for 60 guests, overnight accomodation for bride and groom, breakfast the next morning plus full use of the hotels facilities, i am hoping to get married in june/july next year. I would contact your nearest holiday inn for their package details. hope this helps! xx
ive been looking online for a dress but dont know if they would suit me!! i am going to start going into shops soon and trying different styles on, is that what u done? as for photographers i am getting one that will just do the pics for me and give them to me on a disc. there is a website called ********* where u can make your own albums they even have storybook ones, think ill order one first to see what they turn out like but they look like they would be quite nice, and always have deals on such as buy 2 get 3rd free, the highest amount i saw one for was £40! my photographer charging £500 so saving quite a bit.

thats a bargain for your photographer, my friend knows someone who stays with you for the whole day and gives you every photo he takes for £400 apparently he just enjoys what he does and hasnt got a business!
Ive still not been wedding dress shopping! we went to monsoon last week and tried on a few there that i liked there really cheap too!
When are you all getting married? were hoping for august 2010

hey i'm thinking of buying my dress via ebay through one of those chinese shops, i'm a size 6-8 what size would i need to get? also what do you reckon on a black and white theme :S lol
CommentAuthorvynersarah
edited
I love the idea of a black and white theme, we've not decided on a colour yet, i really like sage green but my partner isnt so keen we went to our 1st wedding fayre today it was lots of fun!!
Make sure you read up on the feedback of these chinese makers and some buyers have not been happy with the quality of the dress.
When are you getting married? we set a date for june 2010
CommentAuthorMel+Chris

Most dresses in bridal shops are normally two sizes smaller, so if your a 12, you really need to be looking at a 16, its really strange.
The chinese dress makers on ebay seem to ask for actual measurements, rather than dress size. I am just starting to try getting a business making wedding dresses up and running.

gonna get married june 2012 so plenty of time yet!! I'll have to look into the dress makers online won't i lol tomake sure they're reputable, and I think some of them give you extra fabric just incase it's too small or anything. this is the dress i really want (ebay lol) lemme know what you reckon lol, I've not seen one like it in shops..

This is where I'm getting my BM dresses from - the MoH's was ordered on Mon and should be with me inthe next couple of weeks as they're all made to order. Had no idea that this is the website you were all talking about until now! Can't wait to get the first dress - will let you know what it's like x
I am also going to be ordering my dress online, it was going to be made by a friend, but due to cost of fabric etc we have decided i should save the money by buying one of the china ones and she will make the alterations to make it exactly what i want. My friend bought her dress from china on bay of e, i actually bidded and won it for her as she didnt have an account, she got it for £80 and it was perfect for her.

Hi. Are we not allowed to put names of websites on here? I was just wondering if anyone had used particular sites. I have found the dress I love on 2 sites but 1 has no reviews and the other only has about 5 and they look like there is a chance they could be fake. Would be great to find someone who has ordered from the site?
CommentAuthorStaceyH683
I ordered my dress off eBay last week. I can't wait for it to turn up :-D x
CommentAuthorTrasaD
Has anyone else ordered a wedding dress online? I found the one that I love, but I have no idea what size I should order as I've heard that you need to order corset wedding stresses smaller or something? xoxox

ClareC66 we do not allow anylinks to be posted on the forum ( see rules thread ) however you are free to post them on your wall or that of another member .
in order to do this you will need to unrestrict your profile
Would someone mind posting me the link? I've also seen a couple of dresses online but I'm stressing myself out with it all :( We have a very tight budget and so I just can't justify spending a fortune on a dress I'll only wear once... plus my wife to be has her outfit already and its cost just over £100... I'll feel guilty if I was to 'blow the budget'. Help please :)
CommentAuthorLorraineL45
Hey can any ladies post me a link of websites used for wedding dresses & had successful purchases? I don't want to spend hundreds & it seems like online is goin to be my only option! Thanks in advance x

POST REMOVED TO ADVERTSING OF WEBSITE, THIS IS NOT ALLOWED ON THE FORUM
CommentAuthorSarah-LouiseC89
Right, I'll try and repost my question again. I'm looking for advice about a particular website which is selling wedding dresses. from looking at the "about us" page, its a UK based company with manufactures in China. I've been trying for the life of me, to find an independent review about this site. My previous post did have a link for the site, which I now found out is classed as advertising and got deleted. Would someone be so kind as to look at my page to see the site I am referring to and give me your reviews.
