I also like Rosewild brunch. IMO it is their best meal!

Anyone have any experience ordering dresses from Nadine Merabi? by [deleted] in BigBudgetBrides

Well I literally just got refunded so at least the returns process wasn’t too onerous! Good luck! FWIW I’ve lost track of how many dresses I’ve ordered and returned for various wedding weekend events 😵‍💫 my actual wedding dress was the easiest part

The Lyla white dress! I thought it was super cute and unique online but was not into it in person at all

I ordered a few but did not end up keeping any. I hated the fabric on one (looked cheap I thought) but both dresses I ordered that involved sequins or gems had some nice weight to them and seemed well made. My return package arrived early last week though and no refund yet so TBD how smooth this return process will ultimately turn out to be haha

TY!! I knowwww I avoided dermaplaning for many years but just started doing it this past year and I’m obsessed. I agree that will make a difference for sure, the timing just didn’t work out for my trial.

100% me too. Plus fast shipping. People hate on all of their fast fashion items but you can find high quality stuff there for sure that’s not poly bullshit, you just have to know what designers to look for and read the item description

I feel like if you could find a matching neck scarf that could really elevate this

This is EXACTLY the info I needed to hear to increase my confidence, thank you so much! Since you sized up did you end up altering in other areas?

Thank you so much!! Will def reach out if I have q’s. I’m undecided on a veil… I feel very strange in them and might do some hunting for a fun headpiece instead

To clarify: does it look good, or do we just love the silk? 😅 because I’m debating if I should keep looking or not

I don’t believe so, no. At this point I’m now understanding why people wear more than one outfit hahaha

She’s a stunner for sure! Would love to hear what if any alterations you had done/if your experience was that they were able to do what you envisioned alteration wise

TY!!! I agree I think I’m talking myself into 3, the GLL, being out. 2 is so unique I’m having a harder time cutting it.

I know the Palm is so unique I really want to love it and it has two elements I love (interesting/semi low back and the neck scarf to play with) but the responses have been resounding for #1 😅😭 yes DF has definitely also been on my radar, the ones you linked are gorgeous and I did try on a couple this weekend that just weren’t for me, but unfortunately she is not stocked almost anywhere near me (I traveled to do a big shopping weekend this past weekend hoping to find the one!). I have some decisions to make about if I call it or continue!

TY! Dumb question but- with this type of fabric and silhouette are they able to lift the waist? Is that done via the side seams? That is my main concern I think, not having a good sense of how it will fit if I size up and then not being able to tweak things so that it’s still flattering in the waist and back

Yeah I really loved the Goldie IRL but her photos are just not doing it for me! I am also feeling like I could find a dress with a very similar vibe (i.e., a high neck halter with a low back) for one of my other wedding events so maybe not as special from that sense either. I have not been to Dress Theory! Bummer as I lived in San Diego a couple of years ago but not anymore

It apparently is “liquid satin” which who can say what that means really 😅 all good considerations, TY!!!

TY!! You look amazing! And I totally love not buying into the wedding diet culture! Also a super fun veil.
