I found this cute Isaac Mizrahi. The picture has a pink sash, but the details say you can purchase a sash separately to add a splash of color. I did find another page with white sashes available, but wasn't sure if you needed one or what. Here are the links if you want to check it out:

Here's the dress:

MsSassy, when is your wedding? I think this Melissa Sweet is gorgeous, but it''s cotton lace so I''m not sure if it''ll be too casual. Accordsing to brides.com the price range is $251-300.

thanks for your input everyone! i love the idea of the form fitting dresses that flair. i''d like something that i''d be able to dance in but at the same time will make my fiancee go "wow" hehehe. i dont want it to be as much as my wedding gown, but something simple yet incredible elegant ans sexy...

i dunno, am i making sense? i could even do a halter top style dress with no back or something along those lines...

Okay, gotcha ya! How ''bout these?

I believe the regular price is $200+, but I remember seeing it online for cheaper.

Your wedding dress

I think the first dress is perfect imho! I don't think it looks too similar to your original dress at all. This dress has a sweetheart neckline and is more trumpet style than your original wedding gown, plus the front ruffle is not at all like your current dress.

ETA: Sorry about the poort quality, but this happened during sizing.

Argh, I can''t get the other dress to post. Oh well, what I was going to say was that I do think the Watters 8382 is very similar (and maybe too much so) to your original wedding gown because of the pleating and asymmetrical mermaid shape. My vote''s for the first dress

Let me know if I can help you find some other options.
 
ooooooooooooh....this dress is gorgeous!!!!
 
Oops, I forgot to attach the screenshot of it for those who don''t want to click on the links.
