I’ve tried on quite a few wedding dresses and can’t shake my obsession with the ruffled/layered gowns.
I’ve looked at a few Forever Yours dresses and they weren’t quite as poufy as I had hoped.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Below are some of the too-expensive dresses I”m in love with that I’m looking for a cheaper version of.

have you considered getting a pre-owned dress? i am sure you could find one of the ones you love for under $1000 if its used.

You can always adda crinoline to make it bigger, if that is your main concern.. Mori has some gowns like this that should be in your price range

I know some of the Demetrios dresses hover around $1000 and a lot of his dresses are poofy and organza! =) With tax and such it may be closer to $1300 though for most of these dresses. Some of them are a lot more so you really just have to pick the ones you like and check them out.

Allure 8862! I think it’s right at the $1k mark.

Thanks for all the suggestions so far…. I love the Allure dress! I have to do some research to see if I can find it locally to try on!

Have you tried Mori Lee? I think some of the gowns are on the less expensive side but a different option than David’s Bridal.
