Something Different..


Hey. As you may have noticed I tend to share white/ivory wedding dresses with or without a colorful accent. Well two days ago I found this lovely dress but wasn’t sure if I should share it with you since its not my normal dress. Well today i decided to share it…instead of white with colored accents how about a colored dress with white/ivory accents?

I found this beautiful iridescent rose colored dress online at “House of Brides“. This dress was designed by Eden Bridals and is style # 2313. Made with taffeta fabric this amazing gown features a tank top with a accenting band at the waist tied into long flowing streamers at the back. The bodice is beautifully accented with heavy beading. With an a-line skirt that sits at floor length this dress is stunning as well as affordable since it is being sold through “House of Brides” for $598.00 when it would normally sell for $899.95.

I'm in Love..


Good morning. Yesterday while I was looking through dresses on House of Brides to find the perfect dress for the ‘Budget Dress of the Week #1′ post i found this amazing dress that i fell absolutely in love with. Unfortunately it didn’t meet the ‘Budget Dress of the Week’ requirements so i was unable to use it. I woke up this morning and felt that i simply had to share this wonderful dress with you.

This is style #2308 designed by Eden Bridals.  The beading of this gown is what really caught my eye as well as the wonderful cap sleeves.  Made with satin and lace this dress features a sweetheart neckline and a beautiful empire waist and skirt. The train is chapel length with amazing bead-work flowing down the length of it and accenting the hem.

While I first fell in love with the picture of the dress, I fell in love all over again when i saw the price! Normally you’d be paying $1,170.00 for this masterpiece but through House of Brides you pay only $779.00.  They are also offering a free bridal headpiece and shoes with value at $170.00 if you buy this amazing dress. It just keeps getting better and better. I’m going to have quite a few bruises from all the falling I’ve been doing over this dress!

Designed by Alfred Angelo style 1797NB is a wonderful dress that is made with satin. Featuring a lace-up corset back, this strapless Princess gown flows to a beautiful A-line skirt and chapel train. This gown adds a splash of color to any wedding with contracting bodice band,lace, and hem which always match each other. You may choose between 55 colors for the contrasting areas. Normally you’d pay $699.95 for this amazing dress but with House of Brides you only pay $449.00. This dress is sure to make your special day that much more special.

Your eBay Wedding: The Dress


As you start your wedding dress search on eBay, here are a few things to help you find the perfect dress.

It’s All In The Measurements

j0309331 150x150 Your eBay Wedding:  The DressNow is NOT the time to worry about finding your size by number – you need to concentrate on finding your perfect size by fit.  So, get out your tape measure and well, measure yourself.

You’ll quickly find out that each designer has a different idea of what measurements go with what size number designation so it’s always best to look at the measurements noted on the auction page and order the size closest to your largest measurement.  You’ll probably want or need alterations anyway to make sure that you’re looking absolutely stunning on the big day.

If measurements aren’t listed, please ask for them.  This becomes especially important if you’re purchasing a “used” dress that has been altered from an individual rather than a dress from an online shop or seamstress.

Look Through The Magazines Before You Search

j0403302 150x150 Your eBay Wedding:  The DressPeruse the bridal magazines to get an idea of what dresses are being offered.

It helps to be specific in your search so if you like dresses from Mary’s Bridal then do a search on “Mary’s Bridal” to see what dresses are on auction.  Often bridal stores will sell of sample dresses this way.  If there is a dress name or style number add that to your search.

In It To Win It

One more thing to stress – If your dress is not listed as Buy It Now – DON’T Get Caught Up In The Excitement Of Bidding To Win!!

j0422622 150x150 Your eBay Wedding:  The DressYou want to make sure you stay within your budgeted amount for your dress.  If you don’t win one auction, look around -or even do so before bidding so you know what your options are- chances are that you’ll find that same dress listed somewhere else.

Don’t be afraid of purchasing a dress from eBay.  The same things that protect you when you’re purchasing the newest video game system or diamond ring will protect you for the items you purchase for your wedding.  Just make sure you are purchasing from a reputable seller and everything should be fine.
