    I bought a second-hand vintage gown on ebay for less than 10$. Made some alterations both for the right fit and for a custom (and more current looking) design. Loved it. Kept the costs for dress, reception, flowers, photos etc. low and instead used it on a lengthy honeymoon trip.

      We had LOTR themed wedding and I've designed my dress, bought fabrics and then got it to local seamstress. The outcome was even more fabulous than my sketches and imagination were and it all cost less than 180$ -- so it was actually better than my dream dress, it fits like a glove (I'm petite and it is PAIN to find long dress that doesn't have looong torso or neckline for small chest and bodyframe) and it was cheap☺💚 So if anyone wants dress with specific theme I encourage you to do your own design and get it done custom ^^

      I hate to be the bearer of bad news but the dresses that are ridiculously affordable are often made by people who are enslaved or paid extremely low. It’s a very sad industry situation. When you pay for a thousand dollar and up dress, you are getting something that was made by people who are being paid a livable wage. I know it sucks having to pay more for a dress but sometimes it’s worth it knowing you’re supporting better work practices.

    My wedding dress was gorgeous. $99 on David's Bridal clearance. The details on it was impeccable. I was honestly surprised at the cost. It was marked down so much because the color wasn't popular at the time. Bright white and ivory were the trends back then.

    • @nikkinitrogen

      That is SUCH a risk though. I'm so glad it worked out for you, but I've had brides whose dresses get lost a week before their wedding because David's Bridal refuses to hold anything even if it's paid for. I would never recommend depending on DB to anyone.

      I got mine on discount at David’s Bridal too! It was only like $250 because it was the floor sample and they weren’t making the dress anymore so they wanted it out of the store haha Surprisingly it looked like it had never even been tried on. They also didn’t overcharge me for alterations and did a great job there (I’ve worked as a professional seamstress but wouldn’t have been able to do these alterations on myself). I loved my dress and so did my husband on our wedding day 😃 Had a great experience there overall!

    I had always dreamt of a Christmas wedding… so my heart was set on a velvet wedding dress. After some googling, didn’t appear to be a thing. However, I cheated the system and bought a $189 velvet bridesmaid dress that came in white, absolutely stunning! Sweetheart neckline, train, buttons down the back. Would totally recommend going that route! The label doesn’t have to say “bridal” for it to be perfect🎄

      This is such a great hack, I did the same thing because I didn't want a white dress. I ended up getting married in a green bridesmaid's dress for around 200 dollars, and it was gorgeous. I never understood the wish to pay thousands for a dress you literally can only wear once, we spent that money on a nice honeymoon instead!

    Luxe Redux is a legitimate store and website! It’s a consignment store, I think. The dresses are samples or new dresses that other brides have given to the company to sell for them. They have stores in the Midwest to try too (and will ship dresses to different stores if you want to try it on). I’ve bought a sold a dress through them!

    I went into a bridal salon, had the whole salon experience so I could figure out the right silhouette for me. I fell in love with a $5000 layered princess tulle gown. THEN I went online and bought the exact dress directly from China 😂 It was MASSIVE and GORGEOUS ❤Gown and alterations for under $400.

      @@cheripowers9924 fair but that's the power of planning and reviews. I researched the seller, watched online review videos and read hundreds of others. I ordered with two months of lead time and an adequate window for alterations. I also bought two backup gowns (Amazon and Torrid) knowing I could return them if I didn't love my first choice.
      Saving money does tend to require more legwork. I was ready to do it.

    My newly minted daughter-in-law bought her wedding dress at the end of year sale at a bridal shop. She then wore it an entire year later. The dress after taxes was 9, 897$ originally. She paid 2, 840$ and two months before she got married they charged her 150$ to alter it to fit. I think getting a 10 thousand dollar dress for 3 grand is awesome!!! By the way she looked gorgeous and the fit was perfect! My son cried as she walked down the isle! (My son never cries, he's a cowboy, lol!) Wish I could send you a picture!
    I think this is the smartest way to buy a wedding gown. Future brides should definitely take advantage of end of year sales!!! You can get a very expensive dress, you could never afford, very reasonably priced! You just have to be patient and willing to wait a year to get married! ❤❤❤❤
