in California-Los Angeles
Hello Everyone!I am starting to look for my dress and I was wondering where to go. I live in the Pasadena area and I dont want to go somewhere that is out of my budget. I'm looking for a dress no more that $500. I'm going to Davids Bridal already, but was wondering if there was anymore inexpensive or discounted places around me. PLEASE Help!

    I love Alfred Angelo and bought my dress there. The closest one to you in probably the one I went to, in Beverly Hills on La Cienega near Olympic. Try to talk to Valerie! Good luck.

    Check www.unique-vintage.com They have a store you can visit in Burbank, but their website also has a whole section of bridal gowns to look at.

    Actually the closest Alfred Angelo to you is probably the one in San Gabriel. Other than DB's and AA I can't really think of any other stores that would have dresses under $500. But you can always check out other bridal shops when they have sample sales, or you can call around and let them know what your budget is and they can tell you if they carry any in that price range. As far as the Pasadena area goes, I definitely know Mary's Bridal in Pasadena is $$$ and I also checked out Yelena Bridal in Monrovia and they were overpriced compared to other stores I went to. I got my dress at Mariposa in Anaheim and they have great service but I'm not sure if they have any under $500. Other stores I went to... Mary Me Bridal in Orange, Bridal Elegance in Torrance, and Karoza in Glendale. Doesn't hurt to call!

    dlx81- what negative experience did you have at the wedding shops on las tunas? I went there too (I don't remember which one was venus bridal), and it wasn't the best customer service, but I wouldn't go as far as too "warn" people about going there. They did have some bargains.

    Try Karoza Designs in Glendale.  They are super nice and not snooty at all.  If you tell them your budget they will work with you.

    If you're somewhere in between a size 4-16, go check out the Jessica McClintock outlet in Montclair.  They have wedding dresses for $75!  Totally worth a look.
