Hey all! I just got engaged last Saturday and we are already starting to plan our destination wedding. I was so excited to see that TheKnot has a board just for us!
I've just started looking online for gowns and am really struggling to find something that isn't so formal. I'm looking for a "beachy" style gown. Alfred Angelo has some beautiful gowns that aren't as "formal," but I welcome suggestions! I'm not looking to spend any more than $500. Thanks!

Re: Suggested designers for beachy gowns
Congrats & welcome to the board! I googled beach wedding dresses and found a ton of sites but ended up with a tradtional gown I loved !
My Planning Bio!
As the previous posters have mentioned, you're going to love the gals here. Everyone is so friendly and helpful!
As far as dresses are concerned, David's Bridal has a variety of gowns that are 'beachy'. In fact, you should check out their webiste for their gowns that are on sale. You can score big time periodically. I have a friend getting married in July who found her dress and it was on sale for $350!
Good luck! And happy planning!

FYI with maggie sottero. if the bridal salon doesnt have a specific style number yu want they can borrow it from maggie for small fee. which is often applied towards purchase
My dress is by Dessy. It is part of their Sandals Destination line and cost $495. Here's a link http://www.dessy.com/wedding-dresses/ .
@Italy - I didn't realize Sandals had a wedding line! I love their try samples on at home program. What a brilliant idea!!!!

I went with "beachy" too...my gown was ABS (got lucky and found it on ebay from another bride who never wore it ~ $100!!!). I bought it as my AHR gown, but once I got it, I couldn't believe how much I loved it.
You might look at Nordstom too. They have some very affordable and beachy dresses online.
GL!!!
