I have absolutely fallen in love with a bridesmaid dress I found at this website, but I have heard it is a scam :(Does anyone have experiences with them??? I found out who the real designer is, but the real dress is almost 3x the knockoff price. The dress I want is:

    This is the orignal desgner. Do not order off a knock-offsite. Read the sticky at the top of the page.

    If you cant find or your girls cant afford this dress, take it to the salon,they can help you find something simiar.

    One of my bridesmaids ordered this actual dress.I thought it was good quality. She will have to get altered,even though she custom ordered to her size. Have ordered all my bridemaids dresses from site and had no problems.

    Can you post photos of the dress that she received from the knockoff site?

    Now you and I both know that's not going to happen. Is it just more, or has the spamming gotten worse?

     I don't know what's going to happen! I'm so new to this I don't understand who is real or who is fake or proper blogging etiquite I guess... <div>Will they send a fake picture of the real dress? The post wasn't the clearest english, and that made me hesitant to believe them.</div>

    TERRIBLE SITE! Awful customer service. I have ordered 7 bridesmaid dresses though them and 1 came way too short even though they were all measured the same exact way. This was their fault and they would not re-do the dress. This "Molly" person that is their customer service representative had me going in circles. I had sent her about 15 pictures of the dress and how it was not made to what we have specified!!! DO NOT ORDER THOUGH THEM!!!!! Terrible quality as well. There are plenty US websites that you can order from and they will admit and re-do their mistakes!!!

    I know the original post is old, but I'm posting this mostly for new ladies looking around about this site without much luck (like I did)... I couldn't imagine paying top dollar for a dress I was only going to wear for one day, and I couldn't find what I wanted in my budget-savvy dollar amount range. Then comes a Pinterest post with this dress that I just KNEW would be amazing, in the exact style/shape I wanted with all the detail I wanted...click on the link and I was redirected to www.weddingdressbee.com for this dress at the budget-friendly price of $350 including shipping and custom measurements.... too good to be true?

    NOPE! I kept looking  a couple more months, but I just couldn't get over this dress and I couldn't find anything else that I even thought I liked enough to wear. So I sucked it up and decided to take the gamble and order my dress. I ordered larger (gave custom measurements 1-2 inches larger than I really am, to avoid being made too small at all costs, and sent in my paypal payment... and then crossed my fingers that I didn't get scammed.

    Low and behold, my dress showed up yesterday!! (a full month before the date they told me to expect it). It is too big, but was made to my measurements which I thought was comforting. I'll need it tailored, but for $350, I have lots of room in my budget to do that. Is it a designer dress? no, so if you're a bride that has dreamed for years about your wedding dress - maybe this isn't the route for you- but I'm not a fashionista, I don't care about labels, and I wanted a beautiful dress without having to sacrifice my budget for it... and I'm glad I went to this site! My dress is perfect. I know this site has mixed reviews, but I had no problems what so ever, and I'm one happy bride.

    Just got a dress.  Extremely disappointed.  The dress will have to be COMPLETELY remade as it is 5 sizes too big even though exact measurements from a seamstress were sent.  The dress has shoddy workmanship.  DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM!!!
