    So my bridesmaid was originally due 8/23 (two days after my wedding) so I didn't think she would be able to make or be in the wedding.  Low and behold she had the baby yesterday (mommy and baby are doing well).  Can I get a bridesmaid dress in 4 weeks??

    It's Bill Levkoff - style #537 - In Balck

    I'm going to start calling this morning and seeing how rushed I can get it...I also know there are sites that make knock-offs that can come in 20 days - anyone have any good experienes with any of these sites..

    Would you be willing to let her wear a similar black dress?  

    I would think you would be able to find somewhere that could overnight it to you, but will she know her size?

    Check with her first to make sure she still wants to do it. There are tons of things going on with her body right now, some of which are sometimes VERY painful. She's also giong to be getting used to her new baby too, so just make sure and check. I know it's exciting because she is able to come, but just make sure that she's physically, mentally, and emotionally ready.

     

    P.S. Check eBay. One of my posse did that and she got her perfect dress.

    She e-mailed me last night saying she can now come and be a part of it....so thats why I am thinking about the dress (and offering to take care of it for her)

    Checked ebay...no luck there...

    Oh, then awesome!

    And I'm sorry the dress wasn't on there. Have you posted in the Classified Section of WB?

    Would you consider a similar dress?  If so, check out J.Crew. They ship super fast and aren't too badly priced.

    This one looks similar to your Bill Levkoff dress!
