wedding dress on a budget?

LA brides/brides-to-be on a budget, where are you buying your wedding dress??? i have been looking endlessly online and feel like everything is too basic and/or too expensive. i would love to spend less than $500 if at all possible. an actual, physical store location where i can try multiple dresses on is a huge bonus. please help!

please help me decide!

so here’s the deal: my fiancé and i are getting married on a tight budget. i do NOT want a traditional wedding dress, but rather something more colorful and/or casual/my style. we will be doing a quick courthouse ceremony (with a photographer friend getting some film photos), a “just got married” photo shoot in Yosemite National Park with a professional photographer, then a big family dinner/reception to celebrate.

for the dress with purple flowers, i would have a tailor remove the excess fabric around the bust (held back with a claw clip in the photos lol). for the all white dress, i would have a tailor shorten it a few inches.

please help me decide which dress to wear (or if i should wear both, and if so, which dress to which part of the whole getting-married-timeline???). my style is very casual/athletic/comfy so i feel very out of my depth :( any sizing/styling/accessory recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

edit: we will be doing the courthouse ceremony one day, yosemite the next day, and the family celebration a week later!

edit: the courthouse ceremony and the yosemite photo shoot are two days back to back, and the family dinner is 10 days after that!
