Affordable Wedding Dress

Lauren, on July 9, 2019 at 5:28 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 23

Hi All. I am looking a wedding dress that is under $600. I am okay with ordering online as I am pretty good at knowing my size and good fit, but I am afraid most of these sites offering in my price range offer bad material and hard to return. Do you know any reputable and affordable shops for wedding dresses online? Or if you are in Southern California, any shops?

    David's Bridal has several options in that price range. You can also try finding used designer dresses that way you know the quality is good.

    Another vote for David's Bridal! My dress from there cost less than $600 with tax and I love it so much!

    I found the perfect dress that I was looking for at David's that had been discounted to $99.. I think it was pure luck 😂 but it can happen. I've heard good things about azazie bridal dresses and you can order and try them on at home.

    Since everyone said DB I will give you another one (even though I ordered mine online from DB 😊). I also ordered several from BHLDN that were gorgeous, but they just were a bit heavy for my beach wedding. Check that site out. You can order and return with no problem.

    I agree with all of the above comments (David's Bridal, Azazie, Cocomelody)

    Another option is ordering a pre-owned wedding gown. There are different sites you can go onto and find gorgeous wedding gowns "like new" within your price range that originally would not have been. One site is preownedweddingdresses.com and I've heard good reviews from that site, and before I bought my wedding dress I looked on there and found GORGEOUS dresses for half the price I paid for my gown!

    We got our bridesmaid dresses from Azazie and they are really nice. I would expect their wedding dresses would be just as well made. I got my dress from a local shop for $588 in NH though, so you could at least try local shops and just be clear with them about your budget.

    My dress was more, but I went to a few different quinceanera shops and they had tons of BEAUTIFUL wedding dresses in that price range, as well as quinceanera dresses that could be used as a wedding gown if you wanted a huge ballgown.

    I would look for local stores going out of business or having sample sales. My dress was 80% off and cost less than the alterations ($250)
