Wedding dresses...

I really want a Scottish dress, but authentic Celtic wedding dresses are difficult to find. I want some sort of hybrid between these dresses. Basically a regular wedding dress with the plaid showing at the back, but with a Scottish Hood (in place of the veil). Know any places who make these plaid dresses?[http://img12.deviantart.net/75e0/i/2006/066/2/4...]

Go to Etsy. Search for WeddingDressFantasy in Teaneck, NJ. Owners name is Tova Marc. She does custom work.

A hybrid dress is sometimes better than "authentic" because it is more personal and expresses who you are as an individual.

When is the wedding?

Yeah when's the wedding? Is there a wedding or are you just wanting a wedding dress to go hang out at bars with? Just kidding as always, but for some reason I thought you just got married. No your sister got married? There were wedding pictures on FB that much I'm sure of. It's been a long time these things get scrambled in my old brain.

Manthy would like a June wedding. She is not officially engaged yet because he has not purchased a ring. To her that is unimportant. They are spiritually committed to one another and that is what matters most.
Regardless of when it occurs I support them both and wish only true bliss and happiness.

Thank you for this suggestion, I was searching Etsy too but didn't come across this :)

Thank you, I love this style, I didn't think I'd like plaid in a dress, but some dresses look so amazing with it.

You're so right, but custom dresses are often very expensive, and I want something simple, elegant and inexpensive. Haven't set an exact date yet. My parents' and SO's are meeting for the first time in a few days (since they're visiting from Colorado and we're in IL). Once we get engaged officially, we will start planning, he ordered a ring for me a few days ago, I'm excited :)

Lol, I will hang out in bars with it for sure ;) but there is a wedding being planned. The wedding photos you saw were my friends' and I was a bridesmaid in it. I hope my sister isn't married, since I didn't hear about it :/

Thank you soco! With the ring on the way, I feel I can start with the planning, I've always been too impatient to wait. It's his birthday in a few days, and I get too excited to even keep his gift a secret from him. Although, I told him what it is, I stretched the truth a bit, so he will still be surprised ๐Ÿ˜‰

On Etsy, Outlanderweddings makes the sorts of 'Celtic' dresses with/without hoods for $150-$250 depending on the style, they also customise the colours. https://www.etsy.com/shop/Outlanderweddings/ite...

Learn some sewing basics and get (or borrow a sewing machine). View as many dresses as you can and find each thing about them you like and sew the garment together one piece at a time.
....maybe...?

Ordered a ring! Yay! Hopefully your family and the new in-laws won't kill each other before it gets here. Somehow someone always finds someone in the other family they don't like, or maybe that's just my family that does that. But they pretty much hate everybody, it's not just my wife and her family they hate. lol

All kidding aside good luck Manthy.

Docteur is right. There are pictures of what looks like a wedding on your fb profile. Please catch us up and if you can, post a picture of the happy couple.
More importantly, how can we help make sure your mom is there for the wedding?

I don't know how expensive this would be, but what if you got the dress in the second picture you posted and then had a tailor alter it with plaid? Idunno, the dresses are beautiful though!!
