I had DDs dress made & it was GORGEOUS! The woman is in NJ but we emailed back & forth frequently; I sent her pics of styles/details I liked & she sent me progress pics. I got the custom dress, a custom slip, & a bonnet for $150! She even embroidered DD's name & Christening date into the inside. I highly recommend her-- FM me for pics/her email :)

My friend did. She went to Ginas in Deer Park. I think she was originally going to charge about $300 but hey negotiated with her.
