New Section: Dresses under a $1000

After discussing this with one of my friends, I feel it is really important to overcome a common misconception about dresses. The common assumption with many girls when they are first buying a wedding dress is that they wont be able to get anything absolutely spectacular for less than a $1000. This is not true at all. There are so many dresses that go for as low as $400 that look VERY similar to dresses that run 15 times that.

So to begin the new section: Dresses under a $1000, I picked out two very beautiful dresses that are both under $600.

The first one is a dropped waist gown by Eden Bridals. The A-line to the dress would flatter all figures and the scooped neckline adds the perfect allusion of cleavage for flat chests, or minimizes yet at the same time perfectly accentuates a bigger bust.



The next dress could easily be by Alvina Valenta or Paloma Blanca but alas it is a Maggie Sottero dress that is modern yet classicly beautiful. I love the bubble hem on this dress and the asymmetric waist. To show that I'm not lying, I found these two dresses that both range from $3000-5000. Look how similar they are to the Maggie Sottero. I'm telling ya....its quite unbelievable what you can get when you just do a little bit of research, you could end up saving thousands and put that towards a coveted band or those beautiful peony centerpieces! :)
