Don't know if ou will have time to order it the traditional way (maybe with a rush fee?)
Check out RK bridal in the city. If you can find what you like and they have it in stock, you can walk out the door with it. My cousin got engaged and married 4 months later, and that's what she did.

I think yyour options maybe less unless you pay a rush fee. You may have to buy off the rack or maybe get a good deal on someone cancellation

My best friend decided in Dec to move her wedding up to Feb to save money and found a dress at Macys (demetrous or however you spell it lol). They waived the rush charges for her and she got it in plenty of time
I know that for my dress store Allure dresses currently have a delivery date of around July

I bought my dress last April, the dress only came in just before Christmas - that's 9 months. When I bought it they did told me it would be 7-9 months. I think it's cutting it close. I hope you find an amazing dress. Congratulations hun.

If you want something made and delivered, definitely get on it. I went in July of last year and my dress came in beginning of October.
I got my dress at RK Bridal and they have a ton of dresses you could go home with today. My sister planned her wedding in 3 months and got an off the rack dress at David's Bridal.

my best friend ordered her allure gown at princess bridal in farmingdale and when it came in (2 months before her wedding) it was a knock off... the gown looked different the beading was falling off and when they looked for the tags they were completely stripped off the dress (because they were trying to hide the fact that it wasnt the allure gown) she demanded her money back and got a nasty remark from the lady working 'i hope you enjoy walking down the isle in jeans' ....she went to the bridal center in commack which carried the same dress and she was able to get her dress in time with a rush fee... so i do think youll get it in time but it might cost you...and everyone stay far away from princess bridal!

I think 8 weeks before the wedding is cutoff. That's what a tailor told me.

Omg. I can't believe what happened at Princess Bridal. Never even heard of the place. Thank God I never I went there. Scary what can happen. I lost some weight after I bought my dress. I didn't think I had but when I went for my fitting it had to be taken in as well as hemmed. The dress was actually loose on me. I felt so much better since in my head I was scared as hell thinking it would be tight and not close. That was in February. I spent a month and a half working the up courage to go. I have another fitting next week. We will see if the alterations remain the same. I know lots of brides who have lost so much they end up having to rush order a whole new dress because they went dieting crazy.
