PSA and AW

Atlas is having a $99 wedding gown sale right now!  I just went there and they had a ton of beautiful dresses!  I couldn't decide between two gowns, so I bought them both!  hahaha.  I got a Mori Lee and a Maggie Sottero for a total of $211.  How crazy!  I love them both and I don't know which one I will wear.  I will post pics of me in them as soon as I can.  They had a TON of size 8-10, and also had lots of 12-16, and then size 18 and up.  My dresses were originally 900 and 1300.  I am so excited!  I hope this helps someone.  Woohoo, yay

Awww man! Too bad I'm not quite ready to go dress shopping yet :-(

ETA: I told my mom about it and we're going Monday I guess lol She said I was nuts to pass up a beautiful $99 dress if I can find one and essentially insisted we go. They're apparently closed tomorrow though, otherwise we'd be going tomorrow.

Yay!  So glad you girls are going to check it out!  Atlas does get a bad rep on this site a lot.  I have been there three times and each time the staff has been great to me.  However, I have always gone on non-peak hours, like on a weekday afternoon, so that might be the trick. 

My Mori Lee is similar to this: http://www.preownedweddingdresses.com/dresses/13648/Mori-Lee-rare-model-Size-14.html

The Maggie is similar to this:

I can't find exact web pics because they are discontinued styles... but the dresses I found are beautiful! Good luck and report back with y our findings!!

I really love the Maggie Sottero dress!!   I am a huge fan of the dropped waist look- I just didn't think I had the correct shape to pull it off.  In any case, based on the models wearing them in the pictures, I vote that one!   Not that my opinion matters though...

I'm glad you found 2 dresses that you like for such a steal!

Thanks :) That one is my favorite as well, and seems to be the top contender right now based on who I sent the pics to.  I am taking them both to my parents' house tomorrow to model them for them and get their opinion in person.  I can't believe I got a Maggie for $99, I am so excited :) :) :)

I called and it said 10-5 on saturday. I'll be out that way tomorrow so no lost if theyre closed

I'm the opposite! I love the Mori Lee! GREAT deals! I'm sure you look marvelous if both the dresses, so it'll be hard to choose.

That is an amazing price!  And I always had great experiences at Atlas.  I don't understand how they got a bad rep on here.

I ended up stopping in today and found a dress! AW and pics to come after the FI leaves lol The person who helped me was really nice and very helpful. I went in with low expectations after reading some horror stories about them, but was very surprised :-)

Aw, this is awesome, too bad I am just seeing it.  Was it just over the weekend?

rak123

Kelly, it is still going on!  Not sure what the selection will be like, though.  Good luck
