Affordable wedding dresses???

Virginia, on June 18, 2019 at 12:54 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 19

I am beginning to feel VERY discouraged when it comes to wedding dress shopping! I cannot afford anything over $500 and have not been able to find a dress that I am in love with! Is there such a thing as an affordable wedding dress? I looked at LuLus and they just weren't bridal enough and David's bridal didn't have anything in the style I am looking for at my price point. Any other suggestions???

    Have you tried BHLDN? They’re part of Anthropologie but they have a sale right now and they definitely have some dresses under $500. Hope this helps!

    Try Etsy. Sounds odd but you might luck out

    BHLDN has beautiful dresses that you can order online and return if you don’t like them. Good luck!

    Look at Azazie! You can order dresses you like for try-on for a nominal cost. Their BM dresses are really nice quality at pretty reasonable prices, and I've heard/read the same about their wedding gowns. They have several for under $500. Good luck! Smiley heart

    What kind if dress are you looking for? Some styles tend to be more expensive, the first step might be trying some alternative styles Smiley smile

    Sleeves and trumpet. Nothing too flashy. Not a lot of beading.

    Consider looking to see if your area has any resale shops. We have a store here that doesn't sell any dresses for over $700. And a lot of the dresses have never been worn! I also second BHLDN!

    I just saw this dress on Lulus while hunting for a engagement photo dress. I think it's so gorgeous! It's on sale and has quite a few sizes left for anyone looking for something affordable!

    I got mine at forever 21. I kind of recommend just finding any kind of white dress. Or whatever color you want. Think of it as a dress you want to wear to your wedding rather than it specifically be labeled as a wedding dress. When you do that, it tends to be cheaper. Find a prom dress or evening dress or bridesmaid dress in white or whatever, but basically take yourself out of a category of just wedding dress.
