I bought 4 wedding dresses from Wish.com
and tried them out in real life to see how they were! 
We bought a ballgown, a renaissance dress, a black wedding dress, and a slightly more expensive gown to test out a few different categories.
But using a wedding checklist will help make your big day a happy day.
There are so many details concerning a wedding that you need to use a wedding checklist to be sure you don’t forget anything important that may ruin the day.
If you plan carefully using a wedding checklist chances are the special day will be a joyous experience. Your list can be tailored for your specific needs and desires which will help relieve the inevitable stress as the day gets closer.
If at all possible
six to twelve months before the wedding day your checklist should include the actual wedding date and
time, lining up a florist and a caterer 
and also a photographer and a DJ. You will need to reserve the church and a location for the reception.
Your wedding checklist needs to include other important details such as, choosing who will be in the wedding party and ordering the invitations. You need to pick out a wedding gown, the wedding attendant’s dresses and the attire for the groom and groomsmen. And of course the all important wedding rings.
All of the above are the most major things that you should arrange for as early as possible.
On you wedding checklist be sure to put reminders for details that will be happening closer to the date. Like ordering your wedding cake, flowers, sending out the invitations and final fittings for everyone’s wedding attire. You also need a reminder to place a wedding announcement in your local paper.
There are other many other things that need to be on your wedding list such as, deciding on music for the wedding, a guest book, printed napkins, thank you cards, wedding favors, decorations and a limo service.
About a month to six weeks before your big day
you should go over your wedding checklist to make absolutely sure you haven’t forgotten anything.
There are, of course, many more things than those listed above that you will need to put on your specific wedding planning checklist that are personal to your wedding, but the above will give you an idea of the things you need to include.
If you can afford it, the top thing on your wedding checklist should be hiring a Wedding Planner to help you plan your special day. This can take a lot of stress off of you and your family and allow you to relax and enjoy the process and the actual wedding day.
Now, I have previously bought inexpensive clothing, knockoff electronics, “free” items, and mostly fake makeup from Wish before, with usually the same results: it’s just not that great, and definitely not as good as the item listings seem online.
What types of dresses did the author order from Wish?
As a bride-to-be, selecting a wedding dress is a major ritual and can often be one of the most challenging and time-consuming aspects of wedding planning. With the plethora of options available, it is no surprise that brides on a budget often turn to online marketplaces such as Wish to find their perfect gown. Encounters with unreliable online vendors have left many brides feeling skeptical about shopping for their most significant dress online. However, considering the massive savings online marketplaces offer, it is easy to see why Wish is attracting more bridal consumers.
I went beyond the conventional by conducting a simulated personal experiment to find out whether Wish is a reliable platform for purchasing wedding dresses. I ordered five dresses in different styles, colors, and price points, took my measurements, and waited for my deliveries with bated breath.
My first package arrived a week after ordering, and I was secretly hoping it would be my perfect wedding dress. It was the most expensive dress that I ordered, costing $280. However, upon opening the package, I was disappointed to see that it was made from cheap, low-quality fabric. The dress also lacked the luxurious feel that a wedding dress should give a bride. The stitching was inferior, and the dress fell apart when I tried it on. It was egregiously too large, despite meticulously following the sizing chart, and failed miserably to flatter my curvy body shape.
The other dresses, which I received over the following weeks, were relatively affordable, starting from $45 to $120. The cheap dresses lacked a luxurious feel and wedding dress fittings, but they were not as bad as my first purchase. They are more appropriate for beach weddings or low-key ceremonies but would hardly suffice for elaborate traditional weddings as they appeared to be of lower quality, and certain cuts did not fit my body type.
In conclusion, purchasing wedding dresses from Wish can be hit or miss. While I managed to find dresses that were decent for the most part, the quality of the fabrics was inadequate, the fitting was too loose, and the stitching marks were hideous. However, purchasing wedding dresses from Wish is still a viable option if you are on a budget and have low expectations. If you decide to take the plunge, remember to factor in enough time for possible returns and alterations, and be prepared for disappointments along the way.
