Dress question

Hi everyone

I went for my first bridal gown "try on" yesterday and like an idiot I forgot to take photos.

I tried on lots of gowns but there are 3 that I loved but now I feel all confused as I can't remember some of the detailing on them. The bridal shop have written down the names of the dresses but (helpfully!) not the designers.

Can anyone help me find a picture of them? They are:

Regan
Desire
Given

I know that one just had "sparkle" along the bust and that one was coloured around the top and down the back

Thanks
Vanessa

    If you google those names and then click images, lots of pictures will come up.

    There are so many there, it will be easier if you loook and see if any are like the one you tried on, we could post picture after picture for you and it not be the one you're looking for.

    Thanks for the replies, although I don't think it was either of the pics.

    I have phoned the bridal shop today and, although they didn't really want to, they told me that 2 of the dresses were "Angel" dresses and one was "Pure Bridal".

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks

    Its quite common for bridal shops to rename the dresses. Along with not letting you take pictures until you have put a deposit down its one of their ploys to stop people trying on then buying cheaper on the internet! Or it could just be me being cynical...

    Both designers dont name their dresses so it could be the shop adding a touch of romance to the purchase.

    Pure bridal - If its not pictures on here its obviously an older design http://www.pure-bridal.co.uk/gallery.html

    Angel - http://www.angelbride.co.uk/brides/main.html

    hope its one of these. you could check the stockist lists to see if your shop is listed??
