I have finally chosen my dress :) This is the dress:

I accessorized the dress with a m0ri 1ee belt (wearing in the pic) which costs £127 & a veil (below) which costs £105

The shop has offered me £100 off of any accessory but I can't make my mind up which accessory to pick?
I think I'm swaying more towards the belt & then ordering a veil of the bay.

Have you searched for which one you could get cheapest online? I would use the £100 against whichever one you can't get as cheap online, so then you wouldn't have to pay as much from your own pocket x

That's the reason I'm swaying more towards the veil as that's whats coming out cheapest elsewhere, obviously not for the exact same designers one. I'm just worried about colour matching but then again they are so cheap on the bay I could always order a couple.

I was going to suggest the same as Flossie, get the more expensive one with th discount.
Personally I think I would sway towards the belt with the disocunt rather than the veil.

The thing with veils is some of the cheap ones you can get online feel really horrible. The ones I found in the shop were much nicer, so personally I would get the discount off the veil.
Equally though, if it was me I wouldn't want to compromise the quality of the belt, especially as it's a key part of the dress.. it would be a shame. Is there any way you could re-budget somewhere else and just get both from the bridal store?! x

I'm currently waiting on a call back from a more local stockist to see if they can beat or price match the other shop, the shop I chose the dress from was quite a drive. If they can I will be going to the shop with my mum as she offered to pay for the dress, so fingers crossed she also offers to pay for the veil lol, If not I can afford it, it just seems alot of money for a veil.
Also originally the plan was to order my dress from china until my mum offered to pay, so I would have been ordering my veil from china also. What's more annoying is that just before christmas I went to a closing down sale at a local bridal shop & found a gorgeous veil reduced to £27 which is very similar to the one above. I was talked out of buying it though as I didn't know which dress I was buying, wish I'd just got it now.

I would get the belt too, I think you have a better chance of finding a perfect veil elsewhere were as belts can be a bit more tricky x
CommentAuthorbride2b90
Definitely the more expensive one paying £30 for something like this is fab x

I'd also say belt.
I got my veil online and it's fine and feels the same as the one's in the shop. I may have been very lucky though
CommentAuthorprincesspixie
I would go with belt too lets face it a veil is literally a piece of net lol (although a very pretty piece of net) xx

I've heard back from my local stockist & they are willing to price match but they don't stock M0ri 1ee so I will have to choose a different belt. I'm going to book an appointment & try some other belts on with the dress, then I'll be ordering.
CommentAuthorFlossie
They will probably have belts just as lovely! X

I got an amazing belt off the bay for 25quid. Better thsn any designer i had tried the shop is vry impressed with its quality :-)
My veil was 45 from the shop so not too bsd but u cud probs get both if u look hard enough (took me a while for belt) for cheaper than what they offer with discount xx
I got the size i wanted and idea i wanted which was an all round detail not just front and just searched for ages(may of took a few weeks lol)
Ch@rmw3dd!ng i think it was from the bay 25quid it was from china but so well packaged and like i say the shop r impressed :-) there maybe a pic in my album of it i think x
Edited to change the name to look less like advertising them.
