You are so freaking good at this, Britt! Can I consult with you about bargain shopping all the time? I doubt I'll be in the market for a wedding dress, oh, ever, but you are definitely the queen of taking inspiration and running with it.
The Vera Wang dress isn't actually one piece. You can buy the black bow separately and add it to anything. And it's huge, just fyi.

Oh look! It’s Fleur Delacour from Harry Potter. I loved her peacock dress!
Anyway. I think I like the Sophia Tolli and Eden Bridals ones best.

Really nice alternatives and some good finds

I agree with Brittany- that gown was striking! (as were the dresses worn by the other principal characters) I wish I'd thought to emulate Fleur and Bill's decor way back in the baby stages of planning.
I'm not into black and white wedding dresses for myself, but I always love reading these posts!
I ran across this dress today and totally thought of this post and wanted to add it in case the asker of this post was still reading. Another gorgeous option: http://www.jasminebridal.com/ugC_Product_Detail.a…
