Amazon!!! I loved my dress for our elopement!! I chose A black v neck knee length dress. It was $40

Dress

This is going to sound absurd but look on amazon. Specifically at the “boho maternity photo dresses”. Many brides have begun using these inexpensive and super cute dresses as wedding dresses because of the price and style.
This one in particular has pictures and reviews of brides using the dress for their big day! I’m even considering it!

So much same!!!! Just bought mine on amazon for $30 and for once dont feel out of place in a dress.

if you want the link!

I am also semi eloping with the same guest count ;)

For our party once we got back to our home state

I agree and I'd add Amazon and their subsidiary Zappos to that list - they have a huge stock and good return policies (as well as obviously good shipping times). Looks like you can find some Pinup Girl clothing on Amazon as well. This one has a similar waistline to the one you chose and fast shipping.

I got mine on Amazon for less than$200 and they made it to order with all my custom measurements, including length, so I didn’t have to worry about alterations.

I am also looking for a more casual dress since I’m older and it’s my second marriage.

I bought this one as a backup in case I don’t find anything I like more (it was on sale for under $100 at Macy’s)

I also think this one is nice

I’m so disappointed for you. My “look” and my dress were really important to me too, so I can wholeheartedly empathize with you. I’m hoping you find something that meets your standards. I’m sorry your friends and families couldn’t be there for your big day, but that doesn’t make it any less big and important! You should still feel beautiful and special on your wedding day, no matter the size or who is there. Really hoping everything turns out and you feel special the day of!

Not sure if you’re hoping for any advice, so feel free to ignore this if you aren’t. Have you looked into a teal skirt on Amazon and maybe some fancy jeweled flowers you can sew onto the skirt? I’m sure the quality won’t be quite what you were looking for, but I think it will still look beautiful in photos. A skirt like this with some sewed on flowers near the bottom like these might work! (I wasn’t sure what length of skirt you were going for, so this is just what came to my mind.) and there are leaves or leaf vines you could even add if you wanted to.

For the friends and family that couldn’t be there but that we would have wanted there, we still put together little trinkets with custom handkerchiefs and small 4x6 photo albums for the grandmas and moms to help them celebrate and experience it with us. It was really exciting to give them their gifts!

I made them with my Cricut! I purchased these [books](moleskine cahier journal, soft cover, pocket (3.5" x 5.5") ruled/lined, black, 64 pages (set of 3) https://www.amazon.com/dp/8883704894/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_FYBNPBQZXMATQY4NSJXD?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1) on Amazon and used metallic textured vinyl.

I got mine on Amazon for less than $200, and they even made it to my custom measurements! It’s a dream dress and I’m so happy with it.

What about those bags for holding ur dress up while u go bathroom in wedding gowns https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07YN3BK4Y/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_i_1YEQTKCM9FYMYGBTJ2RB?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 or ikea had a $13 portable changing room. https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/vuku-wardrobe-white-80331973/

If you really want wear a wedding dress go for it. Throw one of these in the car and change in a parking lot. GigaTent Portable Pop Up Pod Dressing/Changing Room + Carrying Bag https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ZPZ7NLE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_XBF29SXKV0DAETB4AJ4S

Right now this is what I have planned: • extra ribbon for flat lays/detail photos for my photographer. • bouquet attached to the backpack somehow for during the hike • tiny snacks to graze on • extra socks • blister band aids • my phone and my possibly my own camera

I feel like I’m missing so much!

I bought these for $40 on amazon for a Jurassic Park themed costume. Have worn them on a few, short, moderate hikes (since they were already in my closet) and they work perfectly fine. You get what you pay for but these do the job for easy terrains.

Perhaps this? Or this?

If I hadn’t had already bought my dress, I would’ve definitely bought this one! Super affordable, beautiful and totally wearable as much as you’d like.

Nothing wrong with jeans! You both want to feel confident in what you’re wearing.

Check Amazon! They have beautiful elopement dresses...some for only 45 bucks. If I hadn’t had already bought mine from Etsy, I totally would’ve went with one of these! I’m still tempted just because they’re so pretty lol!

Cute Longer Dress

But really you should wear what you want and it doesn’t matter if it doesn’t match him. You guys make the rules!

Congrats :)

You can travel with it vacuum sealed (if without hoops) and open it and let it breath a day before the eloping (don't know how long you plan to stay there). You can also consider using this thing to walk around, so it won't get too dirty.

Otherwise if the underskirt has hoops, they can be "bended" for a while and still keeping the shape

I had two dresses and a cape with me. I carried it with me the entire time and forced it in the overhead. Didn’t trust checking it and when people knew it was a wedding dress they were much more amenable!

This might be worth checking out-some cute options

But i do think that a wrap cover would totally work if it is the look you want! It's your day so wear what makes you happy
