    am i just being daft, but how did you find a pic of the dress, if you cant find it in a link?

    have you tried looking through your history of sites visited?

    No you are not being daft flea - its all a little complicated :) Wife to be has been searching for dresses for a couple of weeks now and has trawled through a good number of sites and had copied her fav dress pics on to a word doc but had not saved the site in favs. To top it all the history seems to have been wiped off (most probably when I cleared my cookies recently - but she doesnt have to know that does she :p )

    Anyways - she was sure it was in a Marie Sonetti (I think that's the name) site but when she went through it yesterday it was no longer there.

    I've just looked at the Maggie Sottero website and can't find it on there :(
  • Hi, I have not got time to look myself, but try Ellis Bridal or Phil Collins (bridal)
    Best of luck finding the dress, if you have cannot find it, take the photo into any bridal shop I am sure they will try and help you.
    Congrats on you future wedding.

    Sometimes it works out alot cheaper by having it made then she will have her gorgeous dress for her big day. Hope all works out with the dress saga and goodluck to you both on your forthcoming wedding.

    I was going to suggest this too. She has a picture and a good seamstress will be able to find similar fabrics and make something almost identical.

    Get some recommendations though as word of mouth is far better than just sticking a pin in the phone book.

    PS: I think the dress is gorgeous

    Is this it:

    11002.jpg

    I'm not sure it is, as it's a different picture but looks very similar to the one in your picture.

    What I do with all my planning pictures and things, I have a folder my "my documents" labelled "wedding".

    Within that I have subfolders for invites, decor, BM dresses, FG dresses, flowers, suits ect and everytime I find an image I like I right click on it and select "save as" I then change the name of it to the designer and dress name or number.

    Mind I say I do that, I didn't at the start so I have about 25 BM dresses and I don't have a bloody clue where they are from :rotfl:

    I normally recognise designers from the backgrounds they use and that one I know I have seen, let me keep thinking.
