RP: Baptism Gown Help Please

DD Is getting baptized November 1st.  My Mom was supposed to be making her gown but has dragged her feet on it (a whole nother story and apparently it is my fault since I never made a date with her to go look for fabric(completely untrue)) and now doesn't think she has enough time.

Where can I get an heirloom gown without breaking the bank?

I would like Ivory and preferably long to 3/4 sleeve since it will be fall but if it is short sleeve it isnt a big deal.

If you know of local shops, that would be helpful too

  • Special Delivery Baby Shop in St Charles has some great gowns in the back; and I know she told us she could order any size.  I'm not sure how long it would take, but it's definately worth the look.

  • I made DDs gown out of my wedding gown, plus we have a few baptism gowns that run in the family.  I see them at Babies r us- not as cool as some of the ones you may find at a boutique.  There are also a lot of places online that make some super sweet ones too!
  • There is a lady that did my daughter's gown from my wedding dress in Tinley park.  She did a fantastic job and only charged $50!  (I was shocked)  If you are willing to drive, she is worth it. 

    Here's a picture of my daughter's dress:

     (This picture does not do it any justice either)

    Please email me if you'd like her information at misslindsayabc123@yahoo.com.  You can also get her information by calling Sara's Tailoring in Tinley Park (708) 532-5828.
