Using an old wedding dress

daisiesgirl

I am getting married in a month, it was a quick decision to have it so soon because my parents live out of state and are going to be visiting next month, my fiances family all lives here. Anyway, this is my 2nd marriage and my fiances first, we are getting married at his grandparents house, they have a beautiful house on a lake. I can't find a dress. I have my old wedding dress and was going to have alterations made to it, I am starting to feel that is very tacky. But I am panicking because I do not know what else to do. I am a bigger woman and also am pregnant so its hard to just get something off the rack. Any ideas, please!!

I think using a wedding dress from your first wedding is tacky.   Go to David's Bridal or even JCPenney, Macys and look for something off the rack. 

I don't know how casual you are looking for, but you can even try target. They come in plus sizes are are pretty flowy. What about something like these:

You can also try Sydney's Closet or Igigi bridal selection.  They are usually in stock, and can be shipped immediately.  Just make sure you check your measurements and their size chart and don't order by the size you wear in street clothes.

Yes, No previous wedding dress.. Shop Department store like nordstorms (Ive heard they have nice dreses) Go with off the rack somewhere like David's bridal  or buy someone else dress used, alter if it does not fit right.. No matter how you alter your old wedding dress it's til your old wedding dress..
