  [QUOTE]Hi Ladies ~ Just wondering if any of you have suggestions for where to shop for plus size bridal shower and rehersal dinner dresses. I've tried shopping in stores near me but have not found anything so I'm open to online shopping. Thanks in advance for the help!

  I have had AMAZING luck with Macy's.  I absoultely fell in love with an Alfani dress that I wore for my shower (in black) and then went back and bought the exact same dress in white for my rehersal dinner   It was originally $109, but I got it 60% off
  
  
  
  here is the black one I bought- next to my wedding dress it is the most flattering dress on and comfy...oh dear goodness i feel like i could go to the gym in it!

  It isn't heavy at all!!! The inner material is soooo soft!  I am quite short (5'2" on a good day) and it comes to my knees.

  I usually have great luck at Macys, but I recently have fallen in love with the stuff from eloquii. I bought a dress on clearance for 30, and it was fully lined and high quality along with a great fit.

  oh also, I have been going to Deb lately. I neve thought I'd find anything in there, and I kind of dread going there sometimes because I don't  "love" the atmosphere in the place
  But I keep finding REALLY cute dresses all under 30 bucks and people keep complimenting them! IT's like my little secret shop.
  
  I recently bought a highlighter pink one shouldre dress to wear for my bachelorette!

  I was at the mall with my friend and we walked by a Torrid store (which I didn't even realize the mall had one) and we decided to go in...I ended up finding the perfect rehearsal dress and was surprised the quality was so good.

  That's what I ended up getting. I saw it on the hanger and knew it was perfect.

  I would recommend Dress Barn and Torrid.  Torrid has a ton of dresses online and many are in stores.  Plus they always have dresses on sale (just got a really cute dress for $20).  I have ended up getting dresses to wear for various weddings at Dress Barn.  Not a fan of their regular clothes but they always seem to have a decent dress selection.
