Looking for a white dress...
With Hannah's 8th birthday approaching, I have decided that we need to find her a baptism dress. And I'm wondering if any of you have any advice for me. I have found a few websites that sell white "first communion" dresses but most of those are a little too frilly for me. I don't even want to show them to Hannah because I think she'll want one but I think they're kind of hideous. I've found a few things that I like but they're not cheap. Someone told me that Marshall's and T.J.Maxx occasionally have first communion dresses but I haven't seen any at our local stores. What do you think of the following dresses? And where have you seen cute baptism dresses for sale?

ooh, all three are cute. i haven't seen a white dress lately but i haven't been looking. i'll keep my eye out.
I like the third one best, but I also like the 3rd one. I bought a bunch of white dresses for my wedding at Jolene's here in UT, i'm not sure if they have other location. They usually have a few choices in white dresses, and they are usually reasonably priced and machine washable. I can keep an eye out for you.
http://www.joleneusa.com/ here is the website.
okay, third comment. I would totally be willing to shop for you at Jolene's if there is something you like. I love that store. :) These are my two favorites so far.

Okay, two more. The first one is the one I had in my wedding for my youngest nieces. Love it. The second one is very simple if that's what you are looking for.

I like them all. My solution of course is to make one, it is usually cheaper and you can get what you want easier.
Good luck trying to find something!
here are some from nordstrom, but they're all sleeveless.

I think all three of those dresses are a cute balance of classy white and dressy, but not over the top fancy - I'm also not a fan of over the top lacy frilly dresses - just not practical or comfortable.
ya know my mom made haley a really cute one and bought her one for after the actual baptism.
