The great Petticoat Hunt...

I knew I wanted something unique to spice up a pretty plain dress a little 50's flare you could say .I wanted a hot pink petticoat! Now the challenge was to find one I could afford. www.pettiskirtstyle.com had some great things as a matter of fact they had exactly what I wanted… for $170 plus shipping and handling GAH!!! Needless to say I was not willing to pay $170 plus shipping on my petticoat. What do I do I go to my fave website for finding the unfindable... Etsy. After searching and searching I found it!!! a listing by dreamspunkids for an adult pettiskirt you pick color and length and get this for $75!! score. So with bated breath I convo'd them and the lady we extremely helpful asking questions about how my dress was made making sure the pettiskirt would be just right and getting my measurements etc. she offered extra fluff for $10 I took that deal and now am going to be the proud owner of a custom, extra fluffy, hot pink pettiskirt on my big dag for a grand total of $95 including shipping and handling. So to recap I paid $160 for my wedding dress, $95 for my pettiskirt, $20 for my veil also found on Etsy, $10 for my fascinator also found on Etsy and $60 for 2 pairs of shoes (1 pair heels 1 pair flats)!!! That brings my grand total for attire for my big day to $345. I couldn’t be more excited if I had spent $1000!!! The Etsy shops I used were dreamspunkids, ribboncandyhairbows, and I can't seem to remember the name of the seller I got my veil from but there are tons of choices!!! The lesson is don’t settle for ordinary because you don’t think you can afford extraordinary!!! Even a budget bride can have what she really dreams of on her wedding day!
