Hey don don, if you are heading out this way, please let me
know. I can show you different places that sell wedding
gowns.
If you were here last week, you could have been able to visit the
store where I bought my wedding gown from. They had been having an
end of lease sale up to 50% off. They have very nice gowns there.
You can have a look at their collection on www.abbeybridal.com.au
Anyway, good luck on your wedding preparation. Just enjoy as much
as you can and do not let the preparation stress you out too much.
Remember, at the end of the day, it's the marriage between you and
your partner you are celebrating about. No matter how hard you try
to create a so-called "perfect" wedding, there's always minor thing
that would come up. So just remind yourself over and over again
that "no matter what comes up (if it rains, car is late etc), I am
going to enjoy the day" 
FYI, it rained on our wedding day but we had our wedding indoor
anyway so it wasn't too disastrous.
