I have three dresses in the running and all three were under 1200 and I wasn't even looking at price tags when I tried them on!
Two were Maggie Sottero and priced at 950 and 1100.
The other was Sottero and Midgley(which I'm pretty sure is THE dress) and that was 1150.
Definitely possible!

If you're looking around Dublin then Alexander's on Parnell St.
I was also looking in Tracey Bridal in Galway. Both are sooooooooooo helpful and have very reasonably priced dresses.

That is definitely an amount that will get an amazing dress. I have looked at loads of dresses so far from Maggie Sottero, Jasmine Bridal, Mon Cheri, Essence and each of them are around that budget, most of them cheaper.
