NYC IndieBride Vendor Blog

Getting married in NYC and environs? A bunch of us are too, and though we found ourselves on IndieBride, we think a blog is an easier way to share pictures and keep discussions on topic. So, post your vendor reviews here, and we'll keep a calendar of wedding dates on this blog. If you'd like to join the blog, or add your wedding date to the list, please send an e-mail to trina magna @ gmail dot com (but without all the spaces, of course.)

Hermia's vintage modern dress


Well, as I posted over at Kvetch, I found my fantastic dress this weekend at The Bridal Garden. First of all, I can't believe the dress—it's nothing like anything I'd tried on before, with a very, very simple front and an ornate back. It was originally over $5000 and thanks to the magic of The Bridal Garden I'm getting %75 off, though I do have to get it dry cleaned on top of the alterations (it is way too big in front). Still, I get a high end Italian dress in gorgeous silk for less than the dresses I liked at RK Bridal!
It will be fun to find a necklace to complement the scoop neck and simple front, and I'm thinking I'll wear goldish-toned shoes since the color is in the way off white zone, close to peach. The photos don't show the color well (and they show totally different colors!) but it is the least white dress I tried. I was surprised that the seamstress had a veil handy with the right color edging to pick up the dress color instead of clashing.
