Since you ladies are legendary...

Where the heck do I find this dress?
(Or one pretty darn similar?)

I've been in love with this dress since ever but can't find it or anything like it anywhere :(

The overall shape is the most important part, to me. The shiny material, not-so-much.

Thanks in advance.
So, maybe things don't always go as planned... Maybe that's okay. I may be alone for now, but my baby boy is on his way, and I wouldn't change a thing.

    On the other hand, I've actually only just noticed the big train-y bit at the bottom... That, I could live without.

    You could always have the train shorten or removed completely if you want.

    I'm sure your seamstress could add similar sleeves to this dress:

    @itzMS and @Dreamergirl8812
    You ladies are like, genius! How on Earth did you know that? I googled, you're spot on, and they have a store 20 minutes away from me!!

    @southernbelle0915
    That dress is actually beautiful, and I'm going to have a look through their website too. I think that one makes second choice if the EoA one doesn't work out.

    @Maggie0829
    I never even thought of that!

    See, I knew you ladies were awesome.
    Thank you so much :)

    Hmm... It's around £800(GBP, I know the pound sign doesn't always show).

    Is that a stupidly AWish amount for a dress?

    No, I don't think so. That's about $1300US. It all depends on your budget though. If your budget can swing it, get what you want. :)

    Thank you so much :)

    We're going to look at setting some sort of budget. We're fairly easy-come-easy-go people, kinda three days after pay-day, all our bills go out, after that, or money is "free" for the month.
    Basically, we're the sort that would put the deposit plus X on a venue one month, then pay it off the next. We don't really stick to a budget, so gonna have to sit and figure that out and keep to it, or we'll end up dropping loads on a party for no reason.

    I clicked as soon as I hit post, and can't figure out how to edit via mobile...

    It's not at all a "party for no reason", (it's a party for a bloody good reason, actually), I just mean that for us personally, we're having an approx. 10 people wedding, so a party (in the obvious sense), is pointless.

    Just don't want anyone to take offense over a mistake.

    Oh for goodness sale. Then I thought I was in the quote box and I wasn't.

    I'm so done right now.

    I cyber stalked E of A for awhile. I ended up with a WTOO dress though.

    Not at all.  If it is within your budget and you feel willing to spend that amount on a dress, then go for it.

    I had a EoA dress and mine was about $1200.  And when I tried it on I made the dumb move of forgetting to tell my consultant my budget.  Of course when I fell in love with it I was very afraid that it was going to be way over my budget but was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't.  I think that EoA dresses look and feel a lot more expensive then what the prices reflect.

    Hmm.

    Dress budget is still in the works.
    Most important was venue (nailed), then food (on it), then will be music, additional requirements for cocktail hour, gifts, photography, then dress.
    I think.

    I figured out what it is I love so much about that dress. Of all things, it's the waist and shape. I love that the bodice and skirt are one flowing piece rather than a "join", if that makes sense? (I'm not a dress person, can you tell? Lol).
