Supplier Review: The Dress

Yes, I had 2 wedding dresses. Only one of them was an actual "bridal gown" while the other one was just a cocktail dress, but they were both wedding dresses. I got the Singapore dress - a simple, flattering, red dress - from Spoil Yourself. On sale. Score!

I got a fantastic deal on the price, which came well under budget. This is my review of my experience with them.

I'll also quickly review the company we used, just in case anyone was looking for recommendations/suggestions on where to go (or perhaps just doing some pre-planning).
