Alternative Wedding Dress Ideas

I have had at least a few requests to look for affordable alternatives to the standard type wedding dress over the last few years, but it's so hard to find something like that when you're looking. Perhaps the first in a random series, this Rachel Comey fringe dress is so pretty and is $169 right now from Bird in a size 6 (was $690 -- still way less than I think wedding dresses tend to run, but my knowledge is based solely on Say Yes to the Dress). For a bit more bling, there's also this.
