Pronovias Brides: Come on down!

[CDNinNYC]

Since there seems to be a few Pronovias brides posting on PS, I was hoping we could post our dresses in one spot so we can drool all over them!

I''ll go first

.

Here''s my dress, Violino, from Manuel Mota''s 2009 collection. I already have it in my closet.

I''m so excited; can''t wait to wear it!

Here's a head-to-toe shot with the model wearing the matching coat.

Thanks CDN! I love your dress

I tried on one very similar but didn''t have the top to hold it up! I think all of their dresses are extraordinary.

Here is Musey''s Nerveo. (Hope you don''t mind?) I loved this dress but it wasn''t available when I was trying on dresses.

Thanks Maggie! My dress has a built-in belt underneath the bust to help me hold it up or I would have the same problems you''re describing.

I also tried one on similar to yours (I really wanted a non-strapless dress) but didn''t want a long train. Did your come in yet?

Not a bit

Your dress is amazing Musey. The beading and coloring is pretty similar to mine. Do you mind if I ask what shoes you wore? Or are going to wear?

Here''s Mandarine''s stunning gown.

My question to all you Pronovias girls is...if you aren''t buying these full price, where are you finding them? I love the look of them but don''t think I can afford a full price one!

I LOVE your dress CDN!

 

[enfianced]

I didn''t end up getting a Pronovias, but I found them to be very affordable and extremely beautiful! All I tried were under $1000US

Here's my shoe thread:

I chose relatively simple gold flats (as FI only has about 4 inches on me--want him to look as tall as possible! ). Haven't worn them yet, as the wedding is in Oct.

Hi girls, I''m a fellow Pronovias bride.
I''m not really great at posting pictures though......

Can someone help?
I''ll be wearing the Pronovias ''Diamante'' dress along with the ''Cordoba'' bolero jacket.......
Bought the Diamante online from Lee Phillip Bridals and I bought the jacket here in Ireland as a sample..........saved myself over €1300 in total!

 

[MaggieB]

Hope this works.

 

[MaggieB]

I did it!!!! I posted a picture! Sorry, but huge personal victory for me there.

The above was Hazel Eye''s Diamante - lovely I might add

 

[angielea]

I am a Diamante bride as well.

 

[CDNinNYC]

hazel eyes and angielea, the Diamante is lovely! You guys are gonna look awesome on your wedding day. Yay!

 

[CDNinNYC]

Here is Soon2bMrs.B's Homenaje (without the sleeves). Love it! Will you be wearing the matching veil?

 

[FoxyBride]

Lovely dresses in here ladies!

Now that I realize they're a Spanish company, I understand why I like their dresses so much. I lived in Spain for a while and those ladies certainly know how to dress! It also helps me not butcher the name, b/c I don't know where I got this extra syllable from but I kept saying to "por-no-vee-as".

 

[Soon2bMrs.B]

Thank you for posting the pic of my dress! I won''t be wearing that veil. I am wearing the veil my mother wore when her and my dad were married. Her veil does actually look similar as far as the design going around the edges, but not that long.

Wow...I must have been looking at the most expensive dresses in the Pronovias collection then! I think I was seeing some for 2 and 3k! $1,500 is my max (without alterations) and if I can get one of these, i''m in! Keep the pics coming ladies!!! They are so pretty.

The Pronovias I purchased was the least expensive dress I tried on. Not on purpose - just turned out that way. I went to a boutique where you can''t pick dresses - they bring them to you based on what you talk about. I had tried on just prior a Lazaro in the $3,000 range, which I LOVED but it did nothing for my body. The next one I tried on was my Pronovias, which looked great on me. I said - I really hate to even ask how much this is, and she responded just under a $1000. I was extremely happy. First time in my life I picked the "cheap" dress.

 

[Lanie]

Wow Maggie! I would have felt the same way!

I just visited the netbride site, and they don''t seem to offer Pronovias...does anyone know?

It really depends on the design and the salon. The simpler ones obviously are less expensive than the elaborate beaded/lace numbers (like mine). The first price I saw on my dress was $2200, and then I visited a salon that had the exact same dress for $1500ish. That is a HUGE difference!

 

[shimmer]

I have a San Patrick, does that count?!? Also, I think I checked with NetBride and they do not sell Pronovias, but I'll have to go through my work emails to make sure I'm thinking of the right place...

I covet Musey''s dress now too!! My covet list is growing. I

Haven''s dress, and after seeing Museys, I would totally wear that dress if I were to get married. And because I am so old with chicken arms, I would wear that bolero with it. I adore Mandarine''s dress too. I am just not that into the straight unadorned trumpet or mermaid dress much...except Haven''s. Something about her dress is so different. Eh, it was probably her body.

Bring on lace and spanish sytle and I am so there.

Of course it counts; would love to see it!

Lanie, have you checked RK Bridals? I am not sure if they carry them but they might...l

 

[shimmer]

Here it is!

 

[shimmer]

And on me...

 

[Lanie]

Shimmer, the dress looks gorgeous!!!! I love that veil too!
