So as most of you know my sister has decided to get married in 2 weeks (she just decided a few minutes ago that she wants to do it the 16th instead of the 9th). She also decided that she is even going to have a color theme at her wedding. She has chosen yellows and orangey reds. The problem is I can't find a resonable priced dress in those colors. Its summer here for pete's sake. They sell clothes in those colors in the spring time. So does anyone know a place where I can find a dress in pale yellow or orangey red that is reasonably priced and not hideous?

in a pile of open toed shoes!
Do you have any outlet type places? You may be able to find one left over, at a good price. The color yellow you may be able to find at a bridal type shop, but the orangy color will be a hard one.... alot of gowns/dresses have to be ordered. If you can find an outlet dress/gown shop, that would be your best bet. Good luck...

I love clothes shopping on E-bay. Just know your Size in inches. And you can search a color!

Given the short notice, perhaps your sister will be flexible? What about a skirt (length to match dresses I guess) and top? Or a suit?

Good luck.

If she turns into Bridezilla, try to forgive her; people can get a bit strange about 'their day'.

Really?! Yellow and Orange/Reds are all over up here. Come on up to michigan. I can't find anything other than those colors (and I look horrible in those colors)

I have a sundress in exactly the colors you are describing that I never wear! I don't know where your at or what your size is (the dress is a size 4), but I would be willing to mail it to you as a last resort.

Edited to attach picture: That is my torso on the left hand side, wearing the dress last August. I would still wear it, but I never have anything to wear it to.

Sorry about the picture, at first it was too small, now its too big and photobucket is being very finicky.

You could try here,
http://www.therosedress.com/ Even in the bridesmaids area, they have really cute stuff. My brother is getting married, and we got the bridesmaid dresses here. Totally cute and worth it.

I just bought t-shirts in pale yellow, orange and red.

These colours are everywhere here.
