Everything you need for a California wedding

I'm looking for any and all suggestions since we haven't actually locked anything in yet... we've checked out a few options, but nothing really clicked--it just wasn't "the one"

Are you just hunting for a caterer, or are you looking for full-on event design and decor too?

Hey, does anyone know what wedding dress prices are looking like in San Francisco? I'm mainly looking at places like Sposa or Victoria's Secret... I stumbled upon some prices starting at $8 $0.00, which honestly left me a little "stunned" 🙂

The prices in the city are absolutely insane; you should check out the Miles bridal salon over in Spokane
You can even find them on Facebook

How massive are we talking... roughly? I've heard of that shop before; I'll definitely take a look.🙂

I paid $3,500 for my sister-in-law's Victoria's Secret set.

I’m heading straight out to Brnaza to see Miles... the wedding dress I’ve been obsessing over for next year is $0.83 (the Saint Patrick 2012 collection). If I don't find anything there, I'll hit up some shops in San Francisco.

I hit almost every salon in the Brnaza area... ended up coming right back to San Francisco!😍

Maybe I’ll jump back in too... I'm hunting for this specific wedding dress they carry in boutiques around San Francisco, though I bet Miles over in Spokane has it for $333 cheaper. No way Victoria's Secret or Sposa is still holding onto a 2012 St. Patrick gown for $0.83. The real issue is if I see it in person and it looks totally trash on me...

Yeah, everything there is perfectly fine $0.83!😁
You can find Sposa in Spokane too!!!😉

A close friend of mine was actually checking out Victoria's Secret$1333 for her needs,
but she ended up going to Miles instead for $1000 everything from the ring bearer's outfit to the garter, hair accessories, and even those little ring pillows.

Why don't you just reach out to Mila about that specific dress and see what the damage will be? If she doesn't have it in stock, she might be able to order it for you; she's wonderful to work with, so just ask her everything and explain exactly what you're looking for.

We already chatted on Facebook, and she’s got the dress at the boutique. She told me I could swing by whenever I want to try it on... I'd go right now, but things are looking pretty grim because 😁 my wedding isn't until October of next year

4 $0.00 doesn't seem that bad to me—I've actually heard some people quoting figures as high as 8 $0.00... but if there's any way to pick something up for $333 less... man, 🙂 that extra 1 $0.00 could be put toward something else entirely. I mean, wedding costs are already massive enough as it is.🙂

You're being way too proactive; my wedding isn't until June and the mere thought of going dress shopping hasn't even crossed my mind yet.
You've still got plenty of time.

Honestly, she’s a genius; she’s even running some promotions right now, so what do you have to lose by checking it out?

I’d honestly just go to see her 😁 ...but yeah, that'll have to wait until next summer

Same here... I'm planning on going in two months. I think that should be fine—though, honestly, a little extra information wouldn't hurt.😉

Mila says it’s best to hit the fitting during Lent, since the salon has all the dresses in stock right now.

Hi everyone!
Does anyone happen to know what time the course in San Diego actually starts? I managed to find the schedule, but it only lists the dates without specifying the exact hours!
Also, does anyone know where they're holding it? Is it at the church or in some other community space? I’d love to swing by and check it out since the course kicks off tomorrow!
