I happen to be close by in Roanoke, dying trying to find someone that can do a pretty complicated design.. but I'm also a graduate student, and slightly price conscious. How expensive did your dress end up being?

I gave Coral’s Bridal (coralsbridal.com) a chance and was disappointed with the end result. I wanted the Priscilla of Boston # 4104 and sent a dozen photos of the dress from other brides and from the website of the designer. These are the photos you see on this listing, this is not an example of the dress they actually made. I have posted photos of the dress made by Coral’s at this link http://boards.weddingbee.com/t…st-2363042 The dress was a close match with the detail in the appliqué, but the way the dress fit and the style of the skirt was way off. They turned it into a mermaid dress and I can’t even walk in it. I spent $450.00 for a dress I can’t use. At this point I’ve called off the wedding until I can afford a wedding dress. I’m looking at sometime next year. We’ve decided to just get married in the court house until then.
I also posted my review on the coral’s bridal website and they removed it. I guess they only post the positive reviews.

I'm also in this boat. I really want to get my dress custom-made to avoid the ungodly price of many bridal stores. Unfortunately, finding a good seamstress in Panama City, FL is proving to be more difficult than originally thought. So, I think what I'm going to do is take the design that my future sister-in-law is making for me and send it to a tailor I used last year in Korea. I already have clothing from him so I know what beautiful work he does and his prices are very reasonable. I hope it works!

Hi Lisa! I also live in Toronto and am trying ever-so-hard to find a custom wedding dress maker. So far I have had no luck. I think I want something that is going to be a little technically difficult but if you wouldn't mind passing on the contact info for your dress maker, I'd really appreciate it!

I had found this website that basically remade designers dresses… i think they were based in china but now I cant find the damned website :-/
I have FULL intentions of having my dress made; whenever I finally get married. :>

One of my friend had a similar experience with Kaersen. There's a lot of Chinese custom-made dresses stores online, but you really can't easily find one easy to deal with.
