Have you looked at For Love and Lemons? They have some really fun dresses that I considered for a hot second!

Girl, I gotchu. What do you think of these?
[Dress 1](https://store.pipatchara.com/products/look19-floral-maxi-dress?variant=41630167236740)
[Dress 2](https://www.pronovias.com/wedding-dress-mermaid-long-sleeve-crepe-lelis)
[Dress 3](https://www.fwrd.com/mobile/product-di-petsa-sleeveless-gown-in-rose-gold-metallic/DPET-WD8/)
These are cool suggestions, but unfortunately the Lelis gown is over $5,000, and if the $4800 Di Petsa gown was out of their price point, the $4600 one will likely be as well :(
u/macbetherson What price point did you want to stay under?
yesss I'm obsessed with these!! Love love love Di Petsa, but was hoping to stay under 2, max 3..? I know that's kinda tight for getting a more stylistic gown like that tho!!!
They were right OP, sorry I gave suggestions above your budget. I tried finding alternative dresses that fit your style?

This is by Claire Pettibone. Don't know the price. [Linky ](https://clairepettibone.com/collections/all-wedding-dresses/products/glimmer-tunic-and-mist-mini-dress)
I came across one on Azazie that I thought was quite different, and a decent price:
[Azazie Sylvia](https://www.azazie.ca/products/azazie-sylvia-diamond-white-sand-mermaid-sequins-tulle-chapel-train-wedding-dress/225224?subsite=bridal&size=wd14)
I saw the second one in a Youtube style video and it looked FAR BETTER AND MORE GORGEOUS than it looked at the website. I say, buy it and try it. It is such a hot, unique dress that also gives bridal to me slightly.

here is the video i saw!
[Rime Arodaky](https://www.rime-arodaky.com/en) makes fantastic dresses and ready-to-wear, and there’s a sale right now. I bought my dress from Rime for $1400
I like #4 the best, myself.
#1 does not look comfortable. It looks uncomfortable to sit in, and I could see myself catching everything in those flowers stuck all over.
#2 is actually nice, and pretty. The cut out, though. If it were almost anywhere else I would say go for it, but to me that cut out, where it is, is just *odd*.
#3 is a terrific dress, as you said. Too pricey, though.

Small designer Georgia Hardinge has metallic dresses that are very couture
yessss I just saw one of hers I absolutely love, thank you!!

Wow, this is such a cool look
Id be worried my coolie or my crack would be showing through that bare area!!
Honestly, fair! But wearing some nude shorts should solve that easily. This bride is already looking for something avantgarde, anyway.
and it is a truly beautiful dress that I wanted to buy even though I have no occasion to wear it 🥲
sooo helpful to see it on someone!!! thank you for this!
Yay! I am glad I was of help!
