Help!!!! I am new bee and I need help! I’m in love with two lazaro dresses, the 3819 and the 3002!!!! However I currently live in Costa Rica (awesome honeymoon spot btw) and my gorgeous small country does not carry lazaro gowns! And the 3819 is now discontinued 🙁 I think I must mention that I am petite 5’1 and hourglass 35-25-36 and that the 3819 has already been altered by the bride I am buying it from to almost my exact measurements and height with heels (1/2 inch smaller in the waist but working out and spanx can fix that right?) while the 3002 is a sample size 12 and I would have to get it tailored a good deal and I am worried because of the detail on the bodice it might be very hard to do so…. They are both almost the exact same price too about $100 dollars from each other so that is no help either!
Did any of you bees try on both dresses? What did you like and dislike about them? What would you recommend???

Number one! I also wore a Lazaro dress and loved it!!! It has the same shape as number one, but different colors and no flower in the back. This is a pic of me wearing it-we have similar measurments, but I am 5’4 and i think i have more waist than you. It looks gorgeous in person-go for it!!! I loved the shape that it gave me -and you have a perfect hourglassglass shape so it will be stunning. I think number 2 is more appropriate for winter to be honest, and the alterations are a pain in the butt! I love the colors of number one. i actually saw number one recently on “say yes to the dress”! Believe me it is amazing:)

@Ilovetruffels: Your dress is gorgeous! I’d be wearing number 1 in ivory though, minus the butt flowers lol and I saw it on Say yes to the dress too!!! That’s actually the reason I started looking at lazaro gowns, I just can’t believe how much attention he puts into the details

I like the 3002 better! I don’t really like the flowers on the butt of the other one

HI!!!! Just wanted to check back and let you know that I went with the 3819!!!! I’m going to modify the neckline into a sweetheart and no butt flowers!!! I didn’t want to risk the alterations on the other one 🙂 Thank you for your advice!!!

@little_d: I will 🙂 I’m not that organized I just fell in love with it over a year ago and knew it was THE dress, had momentary second doubts but I just knew and now that I could finally buy it without looking crazy and it was an amazing price soooo I got it!!!! More impulsive than organized 😀

If a dress happens to be altered almost perfectly before you buy it I like to take things like that as a sign lol. Congrats its a beautiful dress 🙂
