wedding dresses for Kyrra's friend

Okay, let's start with inspiration. I think the below is a super cute wedding. She dip dyed her strapless chiffon gown in green, or bought it that way.

Here are two chiffon gowns by BCBG Max Azria, one is 328, one is 348, there is another strapless one, you can get them at Nordstrom:

this green dress is on sale for 110 at BCBG. Too dark but pretty anyway. Also, this white is on sale for 174 at BCBG, but only a size 10 is left. Could be altered?

Now I keep talking about used wedding dresses at Once Wed, there are so many good deals. Many of them are not used, they are samples, or were bought and never worn, etc. The problem is you need to know the size and measurements to really look. Here are some examples though

Badgley Mischka about 100 (size 2):

Lots of JCrew for 100 dollars in all different styles or so as above. You can search by designer, search lowest price first. There are real designer wedding dresses, for instance Ann Barge a 4400 dress on sale for 299. or one from Maggie Sotero in a light gold color for 300 with a matching veil.

Kyrra's friend wedding post J Crew, Nordstrom, Dillard, etc

Many of the major department stores and online shopping sites have wedding sections. If you feel more comfortable dealing with a company that is more established and where returns might be easier this might be a way to go for you.

J Crew I think is very pretty and well made stuff. A little pricy though. Here's a dress from their wedding section. It is in Dusty Shale, which seems to be blue green.

Lots of great bridesmaid alternatives on sale if you think you can make short dresses work with the tennis shoes. I think you can if you make the dresses almost sun dress looking like the one below, which is on sale for 70 bucks:

Nordstrom also has a Wedding Shop. Wedding dresses from 100 to 400 dollars mostly, a good variety of informal styles. This dress is on sale for 170 dollars. There are reviews too!

Also bridesmaid dresses, like this one in light green satin for 40 bucks.

Also try Dillards and Macys for reasonable alternatives. I thought this gown in cream for 180 dollars at Dillards was pretty

Finally, there is Ebay and Google. Just search for green wedding dress or green bridesmaid dress and you will get an amazing amount of dresses including for very cheap prices. I feel a little leary of the quality in some cases, but just pay very close attention to who you are buying from and make sure you are comfortable with them.
Hope this helps!

Kyrra's friend's wedding post Start with Amazon and Once Wed

With glitter Converse as the inspiration, here is a compilation of links where you might be able to find what you want for your wedding. Let's start with Amazon. You can find almost anything on Amazon. Search for wedding dresses. This one is 150 dollars. Search for green wedding. I saw some super cool looking cuban sage green shirts that would look great on the guys.

I also found this dress for 65 dollars on Amazon by searching for Green Wedding.

For the bridesmaid, you might want to consider shorter dresses with a full skirt or short skirt, even with the sneakers. There is a very cute wedding on a wedding blog called "Once Wed" that shows what that can look like. I love that blog by the way. They have lots of weddings where all the details were handmade, so there are great inexpensive ideas. Here the bride wore sneakers with a short dress, it looks really fun:

There are all kinds of real weddings to look at here, as well as used wedding dresses, DIY wedding ideas that are SUPER cute, etc etc etc.

I will post more a bit later.
