How to save money on wedding gowns
Wedding gowns are very expensive. However there are many options you may exercise to get what you want and save money.
Do you have a friend or a family member who sews? Engage them and in return give them the honor of serving as an attendant at your wedding party.
If you shop for a gown on the internet you will probably find beautiful gowns reasonably priced. Before you decide to have your wedding custom made, go to department stores and check their sales and discontinued corner.
Occasionally, department and bridal stores have sample sales and wedding gowns on clearance. When they do, you can buy a gown at a fraction of its original price and save a “ton” of money. Don’t be shy. Ask the bridal salon manager when they plan to have an end of the season clearance sale. They need to make room for the new styles. Another option is buying a sample gown which was used for a fashion show or a display.
If you still cannot find just that special gown, consider a simple gown off the rack. Or comb the wedding ads and auction sites on and off the web. You’ll probably be able to buy a gown that was used only once or even a brand new one for “peanuts”. To save even more, you may consider a “prom” or a bridesmaid dress.
Bridesmaids’ dresses
Today it is customary for the bridesmaids to purchase their own dresses and shoes. Since you probably intend to gift your maid of honor and bridesmaids, provide them with accessories. It is customary to gift them with custom jewelry that coordinates well with their gowns or dresses. Whether the jewelry is a necklace, earrings or a bracelet, it does not have to be expensive. However, it does need to be of good quality and look good.
Groom and grooms men
Depending on your wedding motif, the groom and grooms men can wear a dark suit and dress shirt.You should give them matching ties for uniformity and a tie clip and cuff links as a keepsake gift. If your wedding calls for tuxedos, have the men in the wedding party rent the tuxedos and shoes. Here again, you should gift them with the accessories. Many rental places will furnish the groom’s attire for free if all the men from the wedding party rent at the same time as one package. And, you will save money.
