Wedding Dress
Sash

I am married now and have no more planning to do! :-( But I guess I can make myself useful and do some online vendor reviews. I ordered stuff from a lot of great people & would love to share their information with you.

First up ... my wedding dress sash.

This is my dress before. It is an Allure gown that I purchased for about $600. I loved the dress as is, but my mother thought that it was too plain.




So, I went on a hunt to find a sash to compliment the dress. I went to several local bridal stores, including David's Bridal and Alfred Angelo. The sashes there were not cute or too expensive!!! Then, I turned to my favorite internet shop ETSY!!!! That's where I found this beauty in the Little White Dresser’s Etsy shop-- the 440 Crystals Sash!




My sash arrived wrapped in a pretty fragranced sachet, and it was attached to a very long, white ribbon. My dress actually came with a plain diamond white sash. So, I got a seamstress to sew the belt onto my diamond white sash. And Voila!!!!




I am soo glad I bought the sash. It definitely made my dress! It was also an inexpensive way to accessorize. I highly recommend Avishag’s shop – Little White Dresser!

Thank you so much for sharing!! It's like you read my mind I have been looking for a bridal belt for so long and really didn't want to pay over 200.00 for one.

Thanks everyone! You're welcome @ norcalbride. @Fallinlove- the sashes I saw in stores cost 200 or more & so not worth it. This one was half the cost. She has cheaper ones too. There's a black lace sash that I love!!!

I loved the sash on your dress.  Already I thought the dress was very simple and elegant, and the sash gave it that added glitz and glam! You looked like a movie star girl!!

By the way, i think it is GREAT that you are doing online vendor reviews.  That is so thoughtful!  I think it is very helpful to all because I know I did most of my shopping online for little things here and there.  I would want to do this too to help out my fellow ladies on wbc after the big day!! :)
