  3. Maybe this will help: they don't look goth to me, but may inspire you.

  5. I wouldn't advise a lolita dress for your wedding. You can do something Victorian with a hint of lolita, but the lolita dress would have some complications. For one, you *could* have a pure white, but the lace and ribbons might look incorrect. I'm giving you a link to a customer gallery for a website. Scroll down a little bit and find the wedding pictures (a woman is in a red dress in the second row of pictures). And you can also look through the items on their website (they have lovely things). Make sure to check our their dresses and headwear/hats.

    You can go through the bodyline website and see if you find anything that tickles your fancy (the server is over right now, but here's the link: http://www.bodyline.co.jp/bodyline ).

    Cosplay is overpriced, be careful with them. They have a 200% markup on brand items. You could try the egl (elegant gothic lolita) community on livejournal and ask them if any of them have any experience?

    Like I said, you should probably try to do a more victorian or steampunk style if you're getting away with a wedding =] But if you do the lolita correctly, you might be able to get it right (do your research well!)
