Plan That Fantasy Wedding Gown
Every bride is unique with a unique style. The single most thing
a bride worries about her wedding day is her wedding dress. The
dress expresses the personal style and personality of the bride.
With so much emphasis on style, fashion and physical beauty
every bride feels the pressure to go for a designer wedding
dress. An average bride can not always afford the exorbitant
cost of the designer dress but can still have the same look and
style with some planning and in most cases can even acquire a
high end designer wedding dress at a reasonable price.
The first and foremost thing in planning for high end designer
look is to have plenty of time to do your homework meaning there
should be enough time planned before the wedding to look for
bargains in various places to find the right wedding dress.
Following are some tips to help brides find the bargains that
would save considerable amount of expense.
In the recent years a number of consignment places have sprung
up which carry large assortment of high end designer wedding
dresses at a fraction of the original cost. Typically these
consignment places carry the last season's originals (which is
great for one of a kind deal). These original dresses that cost
thousands of dollars on an average would cost between $500 and
$1200 depending on the designer.
If you are not going for a designer original but still want
elegant stylish high end product, in that case your best option
is to explore the catalogs. There are several high end designers
whose products are sold through various catalogs at very
affordable prices.
The other option is to rent the wedding dress instead of
purchasing one which might not be a bad idea after all as you
would never wear the dress again in any case.
If you want simplicity and elegance at the lower end of the
spectrum there are many places for that as well. Check out the
discount bridal stores, several department stores carry
exclusive wedding lines, several specialty clothing retailers
have started their own wedding lines and catalogs which not only
include the Wedding dresses but also the bridesmaid dresses and
bridal accessories as well.
The other avenue is the evening dress line. Instead of going for
strictly wedding dress you can go for an elegant evening dress
which is far less expensive and comes in various degrees of
elegance for every kind of wedding imaginable.
Last but not least if you keep an open mind and are not bogged
down by undue prejudices you can always borrow the dress from a
close friend or a relative.
