Hey girls-

I am hunting for my dress.  I have visited a handful of stores, and tried on tons of dresses and no luck.  So, I thought I would head to the web to try to find a store that I may not have been to yet.  In scouring the web, I came across a few interesting stores.  

One was Almond Tree, a consignment store,which was mentioned a few posts below.  And, this was another:  http://www.strutbridalsalon.com/index.html

It is a bridal store that caters to sizes 16 and up.  I thought it was neat idea for anyone who many need a wedding dress in a size 16 or above and just had to pass it along since shopping for a dress is hard!

    Awesome find, thanks!  I'm hoping not to be plus-sized by the time I start shopping (I'm a street size 12 now, but I've been 16 for most of my adult life -- so, we'll see if I can keep it off! *fingers crossed*), but this could come in handy in a few months.

    Congrats on your weight loss Celles!   You are already out of the plus sizes!   But, it may be worth a peek since wedding dress sizes run so much smaller than regular street sizes.

    Thanks for the post, lcarp203 :) I had a tough time finding my own wedding dress about a year ago and opened Strut so curvy girls like me have more options. You both are right--dresses can run really small, so we fit brides size 12+.

    Good luck on your gown searches!
