About

From 2004 to 2024, you knew us as PreOwnedWeddingDresses.com (POWD), but as of September 2024, we’re stepping into a new era as Nearly Newlywed (NN)!

We can help you find the dress of your dreams for less🙌🏻 or help you give your wedding gown a second Big Day with another happy bride🥰.


Our marketplace currently features thousands of wedding dresses for sale, with advanced search features enabling a search by (any or all) designer, keyword, price, neckline, silhouette, size, dress height and location. Dresses are available in all sizes and price points!

Berta, Inbal Dror, Hayley Paige, Vera Wang, Monique Lhuillier, Lazaro, Jim Hjelm, Maggie Sottero, Allure, Casablanca, David's Bridal and more than 500 other designers. Your dream dress is waiting (at a price that will amaze you!)

We also have bridesmaids, mother's dresses, flower girl dresses and accessories. Something for your entire wedding party🙌🏻.

In October of 2022, we relaunched our brand new marketplace!

Some of the big changes we made are:

  • Secure payment processing
    Sellers and buyers let us know that they didn’t like working with PayPal, and that they wanted to be better protected during their transactions, so we’ve decided to take care of this ourselves. We handle the payment, including processing fees, to help ensure a smooth and secure transaction.
  • Pay over time using Affirm
    The gold standard for digital “buy now, pay later” financing, we’ve partnered with Affirm to make wedding dresses accessible to even more brides! With Affirm, buyers can finance their purchase over time and sellers get paid upfront.
  • Simplified prepaid and insured shipping
    Fully insured to and from US based sellers, our shipments are fully insured and require a signature to be received. Buy a box (or use on from home), print the prepaid UPS label we provide you and drop the dress off for shipping. Easy!
  • A more secure bridal marketplace
    We’ve invested in creating a secure platform that sellers and buyers can trust, including a secure buyer-to-seller chat system that is private to the public but visible to our support team. Send pictures and videos or organize a video call!
  • Improved customer support

    Our team has intimate knowledge of the bridalwear industry and is ready to assist you should a complication arise during your sale. From fine-tuning your listing (to help your dress sell faster) to mediating a conflict should one come up, we're offering an additional layer of dispute protection, where PayPal’s lack of expertise and experience in the bridal space meant that both parties were unhappy.

    Our dedicated team is here to assist from listed, to sold, to shipped, to newly-loved💜

This app was great.

I had a great experience using this site. One-time posting fee instead of a subscription was huge for me and my dress found a new home in a few months. The website has a lot of high standards for the process that keeps everyone, buyer and seller, safe.

Great and much needed service!

The fact that this service exists is amazing. They made the process of purchasing a pre-owned dress very easy. I found them by just searching my dream dress on Google and am so happy that there was a seller with that dress available.

Grateful for this Site

I was looking for a gown on a budget and I am glad that I found this site. I was considering a used gown , thrifted gown, or something off a non reputable site. The dress I ordered from this site is even more stunning in person than online. The description of the dress and measurements were accurate. The tracking updates were regular. The customer service was super quick! I had a great experience overall and received a beautiful dress within my budget.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
