    Hello ladies,

    Has anyone out there ordered their dress from Big Day Dress?  My dream dress, Maggie Sottero's Isadora, is on this website for $399. I know it's a duplicate, but I'm wondering if any of you have had good experience with ordering from here before I go ahead and take the leap of faith myself.  Thank you ladies! :)Big Day

    From a brief look at the stie I'd vote no.

    There is no physical address for the company and there are may parts of the website with improper spelling or grammar.

    Area Code is based out of southern Nevada, but I'm guessing it's a forwarded number.

    Also many of the reivews on the site have the same grammatical errors making me thing they are "plants" and not actual reviews.

    @KatNYC2011: That's what I was afraid of and also what my gut was telling me.  Thanks so much for your input!

    I would ask them for a picture of the dress they actually made. I got a dress from china and I love it.

    I just ordered Casablanca b044 from bigdaydress.com and so we'll see if I get it and what quality it is. I am well aware that it is a replica...but for a third of the price I'll drop the label anyday.

    If I do receive the dress and everything goes well, I will definitely post all around that they are at least legit enough to produce a product. I will even post pictures of myself in it so people know I'm real and not just some random person within the company.

    I really hope this works out as I can't afford for it not to!!

    @MoPed: Hi, I was just wondering what's happened since you posted your comment a month ago. Have you received it or are you still waiting? I really like one of the dresses on the site, but I am so afraid it won't come out right or that the reviews are fake, so I was just curious about your experience.

    I got the bridesmaid dresses from bigdaydress.com and they came out amazing.  They are better quality than what I was going to buy in a bridal store for $50 more on each dress.  I was a little scared but took a chance and it turned out great.  The dresses were made to fit the girls, you send in measurements and they make the dress then to fit you, so we don't have to waste more time and money on alterations.  I am very impressed with the service also.  Any suggestion I made went into the dress.  We got pockets put in the dress which the girls love and I even asked her to put each girl's name on the dress, as I was going to receive them all in one shipment and did not them to get mixed up.  It was just a great experience.

    The website is real. I ordered the flowergirl dresses, bridesmaid dresses and the mother off the bride dress. The dresses are a copy ofcourse, but just perfect. They were sized for free. My bridesparty just looked perfect. I can not comment on the bridedress, because I had a real Sottero.

    I just order my Bridmaid dress from there, because I have a large party they are only making one of the dresses for me and sending it to me to look at. As of right now I have been pretty pleased with them. I have been email this girl(Nicole) from the website and she has been VERY helpful.

    Here is the Dress I decided on with the colors:

    So I finally received one of my bridemaids dress and it looks great! there was two little issues I had with the dress. Here is the email wrote to the company also there response:

    Dear Nicole,

    Let me start off and say how impressed I was on how quickly we received the dress and how great it looks! There was only a couple issue I had, I notice that flower petals were only one layer of material, shouldn't it be two and on one of the flower petals it looks like it's starting to fray (picture attached). Also when my girl tried her dress on it took literally 2 people two zip it up because it kept getting caught. I was wondering if there was anything you can do about these issues?

    _____________________________________________________________________________

    Dear Jessica,

     

    Thanks for return back to us.

    Yes, I am agree the flower will be looks better we made with 2 layers of the fabric. We will send you another extra flower with these dresses. Please replace the new flower by yourself for the first dress.

    For the zipper problem.We will pay extra attention in the next dresses.

    Here are some pictures of the dress. Oh btw we change the color of the flower too.
