[Our Story]

After Jackie got engaged and was suddenly a bride-to-be herself, she was shocked at the high cost of wedding dresses and quickly realized the wedding she had imagined (saw in magazines, Pinterest, and on bridal blogs) would cost a small fortune.

So, like any scrappy girl with designer taste, she looked for another way! eBay, marketplaces, sample sales; where were the end-of-season sales for bridal gowns? The 70% off sales for the Valentino and Elie Saab gowns she lusted after? She couldn’t find them, but what she did find were other women like her trying to buy and sell their wedding gowns and save money.

It felt like the bridal industry wanted brides to feel cheap or like they were breaking the rules by not paying full price for a designer gown.

In 2012 Jackie started NearlyNewlywed with the $$$ she got from reselling her wedding dress and the little money left after her own wedding a few months before. She launched NearlyNewlywed.com out of her living room with the support of her loving husband, family and women all over the US who sent her their gowns and believed in what she wanted to build.

Every dress we help sell or bride we help get a gown she loves, for less, is a building block to our bridal revolution.

We hope you enjoy shopping and selling on Nearly Newlywed and help us share the love!

Authentic gorgeous dress

I bought the dress about 10 months ago but just had my wedding. What I saw in the listing matched what I received exactly. The dress was an authentic essence of Australia dress, just needed a wash and to do a bit of deep cleaning on the train area after receiving it. She was gorgeous on wedding day. Communication with the seller was very easy, and concise. Not a complicated process at all. Sooo Glad I went with this method for my wedding dress.

Highly recommend!

Had a great experience start to finish with Nearly Newlywed! Felt confident to order a pre-loved dress, knowing could return if wasn’t just the one, or any major issues/concerns. It was the dress I fell in love with at the bridal shop, but best yet, already altered to my measurements. Just felt meant to be! Highly recommend buying your dream dress on Nearly Newlywed!

Outstanding

As I considered the idea of selling my dress online, I pondered what it would be like to buy a dress online. It seems so risky for so many reasons. But now that I’ve made it through the entire process of selling my dress with Nearly Newlywed, I can say I would absolutely feel comfortable buying a dress through their site! And I would also be happy to list a dress through their site should I ever have to do it again. They go above and beyond to protect the seller AND the buyer and to ensure the buyer is getting exactly what the seller has presented in their listing. The process of taking pictures and videos once the dress has been purchased and throughout the packaging/shipping process may seem tedious, but it is very evident that it’s what makes the entire process safe and secure for all involved, so it’s worth every bit of effort. Can’t say enough how impressed I’ve been with Nearly Newlywed from start to finish.
