So we have the "dream dress" thread out there, what about a "realistic dress" thread? I know mine are different (stupid $4000 Lazaro dress ), are yours? Hmmm? What are you drawn to that you can actually afford? LOL...Here's mine! It's Mia Solano M8960, and it's less than $1K! Woohoo!

I'm in love with Gypsy's wedding dress right now, so I pick hers. It's a Mon Cheri Liz but a few specific alterations. It seems to be in the budget (slightly above considering alterations), and it would actually flatter my body type I think as opposed to my dream dresses that come with a dream body... mermaid gowns were not made for this rear end of mine. If she announced that she was selling it, and I was engaged, I would snatch it up in a second!

Fun! I honestly haven't really browsed that many wedding gowns, but I worked in a bridal store for six years and loved trying on the samples, etc. It was such a fun job - Maggie Sottero is a great brand with a very good fit. Browsing their site this one caught my eye - and I normally wouldn't go for strapless, but the bead work is really pretty! Can't seem to upload the pic, here's a link, http://tinyurl.com/3kcrqh

There's an alencon lace Jim Hjelm dress that I adore, and what lace lover doesn't love Monique Lhuillier? But realistically - I really do like this Watters 1048b dress quite a bit, and I'm sure it could be modified into a v-neck, rather than a halter. I've seen it online for under $900.

This Jim Hjelm bridesmaid dress comes in ivory, and providing that it fit decently, would be a front runner (so I could spend the extra $$$ on an awsome photographer...).

I want the J.Crew Celeste so bad it hurts! Why did they have to quit making it. . . ETA: It is my 'realistic dress' because it sells for less than $1K. I just have to scour ebay to get it. ![]()

My dream dress is probably the Monique Lhuillier Scarlet but seeing as I wouldn't even spend the money to get a used one these are my realistic front runners: Maggie Sottero Vernice in ivory silk. Maggie Sottery Amy I'd be curious to try on this one from David's Bridal. I think that this Watters is divine and I found it online for as little as $500! I could so this all night... I can't wait to try on dresses! ![]()

Amy Michelson has the most glam-tastic dresses! The backs are incredible!
