I am so very glad that I found you guys! If I didn't, I don't think my dress would be exactly what I wanted! It is beyond my expectations, such great attention to detail, things I wasn't even expecting but was so pleased with! I am going to tell all my friends who are going to be married to call My Big Fat Beautiful Wedding, they will go over and beyond your dream dress! It's exactly what I had pictured, if not better! Thank you, I cannot wait to wear it! Yes! The lace is super soft, and it's my favorite part!! I'm glad it's your favorite- haha I feel special! PS- My dad saw it, but not on me- he wants to wait, but he really liked it also!! My Best and Merry Christmas! Erin Enockson, Colorado
I received my dress a few days ago, and I can't express strongly enough how thrilled I am with it!! When I had first seen the picture of it on the site, I was captivated by its beauty, but now that I have the dress here, I see the picture doesn't do it justice. The quality is amazing, and the craftsmanship and detail are stunning. And to top it all off, its a perfect fit!! The price was amazing, but to see this gorgeous dress, you would never in a million years guess what I had paid for it. And you give the option of custom making the dress to your exact measurements at no extra charge. I have truly found the dress for me, and I cannot wait to walk down the aisle in my beautiful dress. For those of you who are a bit skeptical about purchasing a wedding gown online, your worries can be put to rest if you buy a dress from MyBigFatBeautifulWedding.com. You will get a high quality, beautiful dress at a small fraction of the price you would pay for it in any bridal boutique, and there are so many designs to choose from, you will definitely find that "perfect" dress for you. A million thanks Janet to you and your team. You will always be remembered when I look at my beautiful dress:)
Sorry that it took me so long to get back with you. Since I had my dress shipped to my mothers house she actually saw it before I did. When she called me to tell me that it had arrived she thought it was the wrong dress. She said that there were too many beads on the train. I explained to her that I asked you to add more and boy did you ever. I can't wait to walk down the isle in this weddding gown. Many thanks to you and the ladies who made this dress, it is unbelievable. And very sparkly. I will send you pictures after the wedding because everyone I know knows where I bought my dress. Thank you again Janet your response time to my many, many emails was very impressive.
I am now ready to order my bridesmaids dresses from you too so I will let you know which ones we choose within the next week or two. Have a great Thanksgiving.

Dear Janet,
Beth's Dress
I wanted to drop you a note to let you know that I just received my gorgeous dress yesterday. It is so much more than I ever thought it would be. I have to admit that when I got the box I was a little nervous because I thought how can a wedding dress fit into a box this size? But when I opened it up I could not believe my eyes. I had to hang it up just like you said and I just stared at it for about an hour. My maid of honor rushed over and was there for my first fitting. We both just couldn't believe it and we both agree that I will definitely get a hoop petticoat to go underneath it. You were right, the ivory color is just beautiful. I only have one question though, why did you put it on sale after I bought it? LOL! Thank you so much for you guidance, this is definitely the dress for me.

PS I won't send pictures of me in the dress until after the wedding because I am a little superstious about that sort of thing.

Hello Again Deborah, Jennifer's Dress
Wow! I don't even know what to say. My mom is crying and I am so happy that I found your website. After ordering from (name removed for privacy) and what happend with that, I was just about to give up. Who would have thought that I would find my dream dress online! Thank you for getting it to me and I will send you pictures after the wedding. Thank you so much, you ladies are providing such a great service and at awesome prices. Truly, I am finally happy and can now get excited about my wedding again instead of chewing my fingernails.
I just wanted to say that I received my dress last night and it is absolutely gorgeous! I was a little nervous purchasing online and the price seemed too good to be true. Now I am so happy that I found your website and was able to purchase my amazing dress from you. Its exactly what I wanted at such a fantastic price. Both you and Deborah made me feel so comfortable and were so attentive! I just want to say thank you for everything and I can't wait to send you pictures of me in the dress! My mom comes over tonight to see me put it on and take pictures so you can be sure that I will send some your way.
Jennifer chose not to wear a crinoline and created a whole different look with this gorgeous dress
I couldn???t believe my eyes. I really couldn???t! The dress is so beautiful and looks just as gorgeous as the website photo. I tried it on and it truly fits like a glove. I have to take it to get hemmed, it???s a little long but that is no big deal. The bodice is so pretty. My 13 year old son came up stairs while I was trying the dress in, and he said: ???That is the most beautiful dress I have ever seen??? ???Its really beautiful Mom??? That coming from a 13 year old boy. It truly is magnificent.

Hi Janet,
I got my dress today and it looks absolutely beautiful! It is my dream dress and exactly what I imagined it would be! I had been to a few bridal shops and tried on some designer dresses and the quality of my dress is indistinguishable from those. I also like the thought that it was made just for me! Tell your seamstresses that they did a wonderful job.
Thanks a million for all your help and this great service that you provide!
All my best, Melissa Rodgers Canada
P.S. I'll send some pictures as soon as I can!

Wedding Date: June 2009 Ashley's Dress
Dear Deborah,
I just wanted to say thank you for making such great quality wedding dresses at your prices. I just got my wedding dress today, the "Meredith" and I absolutely LOVE IT!
Ever since I was a little girl, I dreamed of having a wedding dress with a train like this and it far exceeded my expectations!
I have to tell you that I was very skeptical of ordering online, but after we spoke on the phone several times, you made me feel comfortable enough to take the plunge. My mother and I are so pleased with the quality of this dress and the price that we are thinking about ordering another one with a shorter train for the reception.
No one is going to believe how much I REALLY paid for it!
I will let you know! Thank you again and I can't wait until my fiance sees me in my dream dress! I will send you pictures next June when we get married.
Sincerely, Ashley Lyons Michigan, USA
