It wasn't real silk, but for one day, I did not actually care. I believe their smaller sizes might work for you, and if not, they can make alterations.


Thank you very much! I'm super excited as well. Never thought that I'll find someone again.

Also look on the Real Real --they might have something that's not a wedding dress but wedding-ish.

Wow! Beautiful gowns and definitely some that I could wear, but unfortunately not in my price range. I was thinking around $600 or no more than $800. It will be a small wedding (around 35 guests).

Are you comfortable with sleeveless and/or strapless?
Budget?


Yes, I have toned arms and I'm comfortable with sleeveless or strapless. My budget is no more than $600.00.
