So- we run Dynamic Creative Optimization (DCO) for our clients display ads in a feed and corresponding google sheet via Google DoubleClick. My q is- does anyone know what systems out there allow for creating a template that will automatically pull a product image from say Target.com and automatically building the ad & copy without manually making 1000 ads via row for row in the google sheet? I know this is possible but curious if Sizmek or Flashtalking are more common in this type of creative development.

My advice is go to many shops to compare styles and price, remember to budget for alternations which can be $500+ and try resale stores. I bought a $1700 sample dress for $500. Had a few snags but alterations fixed it and no one's looking that closely to your dress except you
Glamour closet! With alterations mine was ~$2k but since it was originally a $10k dress it was a little less painful.
That’s so cool! What a discount
Had a few friends that really liked David’s bridal! Otherwise revolve has some nice white gowns that aren’t specifically wedding dresses.
I am in GA and I didn't know this. Thank you for sharing!!!!
Find a brand you like, find out your size (wedding dresses usually run two sizes smaller than street sizes if you’re a street size 6 you’re a wedding 10) and check out Poshmark or EBay.

Yes or Stillwhite!
I got my dress from Vow’d for $800 and love it (it’s for pockets!). I don’t think they have locations in CA but they do online try-ons where they’ll ship you dresses to try
If you go to the boutiques just ask to see their clearance. I got mine for $900 and their starting price for dresses was $1500
Anthropologie has some under 2k. Also try Jenny Yoo!
Rising Star
JJ’s House! It’s online, but you can return within 10 days of you receiving it. What I did was order a standard size, try it on, return it, and then order it again using custom sizing, so I didn’t have to get it altered. The dress was $300.
I originally went to a bridal shop and fell in love with a dress that was out of my price range. I realized that if I wore it though, I would spend the day feeling bad about spending that much money on a dress, so it wasn’t with it. I don’t like the one from JJ’s House quite as much, but for me, it’s more about enjoying my day than the dress.
David's Bridal has some great deals! I was able to get my ceremony dress and a reception dress for under $1,500. I wasn't intending on getting two dresses but the second one was so cute and the price was right
I got mine on sale from BHLDN - just put my size in and ordered a bunch of dresses to try on at home. I luckily found one that I loved! You can also try looking at bridesmaids dresses if you want something simple - those in ivory or cream tend to be cheaper than the same style in pure white!
Paid $50 for mine from fashionova, I’ll be adding a gold belt with jewels and pearls on it ($60) and a cathedral veil w/ gold embellishments which was about $60 as well. Got the belt and veil from Amazon!! Although my dress is a little roomy in the waist, it’s nothing a few alterations can’t fix. Everything came exactly as pictured online 🥰
This is really beautiful and the extra accessories will make it come to life
Revolve! Just buy a bunch and try them on and return the ones you don’t like
Facebook marketplace or poshmark!!! These dresses have only been worn one and for a few hours. Def worth looking
I went to all the fancy stores and my dream dress turned out being $1700 even though I told them a slightly higher budget
What state are you located?
That way maybe you find your dream dress in person but at the very least you’ve tried the shapes and brands you like!
Has anyone tried hebeos? I see a few JJ House recommendations
Well that is good to know! Thank you!
Jenny yoo
Got mine at David’s bridal. Veil and belt also for about 850
I got mine from Shein and it's amazing
Search your area for pre-owned bridal shops, if that doesn’t bother you (it doesn’t for me). Found a Maggie Sottero in mint condition for $300 that fit like a glove. As others have mentioned, don’t forget about the tailoring expenses when you order online like from StillWhite. Seamstress fees in my area can be in the $500+ range so it was important to find one with as few alterations as possible.
