Dress Help

Hi, I have ordered my dress for our June Wedding. Unfortunately, My fiance was diagnosed with a very aggressive, terminal cancer. We've decided to get married on Saturday(11/20) before he gets really sick from Chemo. Does anyone know of a good place to get a simple, less expensive replacement gown? Any leads or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I wish I could wear the gown I ordered, but it's not in yet. Please, any help??

Jenni

    I'm so sorry to hear about your fiance.  For a dress, there used to be at least one wedding consignment shop here in Des Moines.  That might be where I would start looking. 
     Here are a few I found just by doing a google search

    Thank you so much!! I tried some on at David's Bridal.  I actually called the dress store and they're going to call the manufacturer and see if they can get my dress here in time!! If not, I at least have a back up at Davids...Thank you again for yuour research!!
