I think I've decided that I'd like to wear a tea-length dress for my wedding. I found this one at David's Bridal, but I would add a colored sash around the waist:

I'm not having much luck finding other options, but my major problem is that I don't know where to look. I'm not interested in spending thousands on a dress, but I'd welcome any tea-length suggestions.

Thank you in advance for helping out a clueless bride.

Have you tried looking at bridesmaid dresses?  You'll find a much bigger selection of tea-length dresses and they'll be much less expensive than a bridal dress.  Many places even sell the same dress as a bridesmaid dress and a bridal dress, but charge a couple hundred less when calling it a bridesmaid dress!  Here are some cute ones that The Knot has on their site:

Vera Wang makes white bridesmaids dresses and probably in tea length.  There is a place out of new orleans that a few people on here have used after I suggested them and they've had good results.  They will sell you one white bm dress unlike other places and they are usually on sale.  You can look around online and then see if they have the dresses you are interested in and their prices.

Thank you all for your suggestions. There are some there that I love and I'll have to track them down somewhere to try on. I'm getting a little nervous that I won't find the dress for me...and so much of the wedding is determined by the style of dress. Please excuse my most recent bridal freak out!
