Sandra86says 92 Posted October 3, 2015 Hello WLS peeps! I'm getting married on 09/24/16! Venue is booked, photographers etc...So wedding planning has commenced! On top of all that, I am halfway through my 6 month Physician Diet... I am on Month 3... SW is 265 im 5'2 I'm hoping I'll be done with the process in January, prob get approved for surgery sometime in February. ANYWHO... I was reading that wedding gowns must be ordered about 6-8 months ahead of time? I'll be about 6-7 months Post Op (down a lot of lbs hopefully) by the time of my wedding... my question is... Do they sell bridal gowns "off the rack"? Planning on getting my dress 1-2 months prior to my wedding. I am freaking out. This surgery is very important to me, got denied in July because they required 6 months which I immediately jumped on! Lol. I have no intentions of pushing the wedding back either... I understand it's going to be a stressful time but I need all the advice I can get! Planning on calling David's bridal on Monday! Anybody have experience with buying an emergency wedding gown? Thanks in advance!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chele H 427 Posted October 3, 2015 Yes they do....often they are discontinued samples. A large chain like David's Bridals should have a decent selection.

Tssiemer1 549 Posted October 3, 2015 I bought mine off the rack and David's. It was discounted from 900 to 150. I loved it. I had time so I had the zipper back taken out and they put in a corset back. I got it about 6 months before my wedding. The corset back worked out due to weight fluctuation.
