You can save a lot more money that most people would think if you shop smartly for your wedding dress, and you may well shrink away going “second hand?? my wedding dress?? I think not!” stop for a second and think – it’s not second hand in the musty thrift store sense that immediately springs to mind, in fact it is worn once, and only once and for that fact probably only for a few hours. The savings you can make buying a used wedding dress are phenomenal, and more and more people are catching on to the fact that there really isn’t much point having their wedding dress sitting up in the attic gathering dust when it could in fact make up to half its original value back. Most pre-owned wedding dresses will have been dry cleaned by a specialist and wrapped carefully to protect it from the attic dust, and if you are really lucky and find you have the same size feet as the person you are buying from you might bag some low cost wedding shoes as well. You can always buy second-hand bridesmaid dresses if you don’t like the idea of having a second-hand dress yourself? Again, you will find people who have a beautiful set of bridesmaid dresses, cleaned and gathering dust, sometimes even with matching ,cheap wedding accessories, who are willing to sell them on for a fraction of the price.

One concern you may have about buying a worn-once wedding dress is that it won’t have been tailored precisely to your curves, but don’t let this be an obstacle to you buying your dream dress at a fraction of the price – wedding dress alteration specialists can work miracles with dresses, and will make your dress fit you like it was tailor-made and you will still have saved yourself a considerable amount of money.
