I got my dress at the sample sale last year!

Get there early and have an open mind!

I may have to try this! How early would you recommend getting there?

I went here with a friend last year- except last year it was 2 days long and we decided to go on the second day because we thought it would be less crazy (there were not that many people there at all) and I was not even expecting to find a dress- and sure enough I did! $300 for a $1600 Allure wedding dress and I love it. The only thing I was not expecting was to basically be changing in front of everyone when you are trying your dresses on- its not a big deal and there are some curtains up but none of the dressing rooms are fully closed in, at least they weren't last year. So just a heads up to be prepared  I would definitely recommend checking it out!

<div>I think 1-2 hours? I got there about 1.5 hours before it started and was in the first group, it also started earlier and it's only one day so it may be more popular, so you may want to get there earlier if you want to be in the first group</div>
