Used Wedding Dresses

Many of us who are getting married may be doing so on a tight budget. A big way to save on wedding expenses is to buy a second hand dress. This may not sound very appealing to you, remember that the dress is only worn for a few hours. Why pay thousands of dollars for something barely worn? And it's not like you are going to wear it again anyways.

You might even be in luck on your search and happen across a dress that is being resold, but was never worn for some reason. Weddings can be cancelled, dresses can be replaced, these things happen all the time. Or you might find someone in the business of collecting deeply discounted dresses and reselling them. Either way there are great deals to be had. And you can put all the money you've saved towards a fabulous honeymoon.

You may be surprised to find out just how many used wedding dresses are available. There are thousands, if not more. If looking online, you may want to check out Ebay. The great thing about Ebay is that you can narrow down your dress search by size, style, or keyword (ie: Ralph Lauren). This makes it easier to just find the dresses you are interested in. Classified ads and thrift stores are also a good place to look.

Once you have your used wedding dress in hand, you need to take it to the cleaners. Remember that this dress may or may not have been worn, and who really knows if it was cleaned afterwards or not. Play it safe and have it cleaned. It is also unlikely that the dress will fit you perfectly so take it in for alterations.

You can take your dress to a seamstress for alterations, but make sure she has experience with wedding dresses first. Usually bridal shops will do alterations on outside dresses by appointment as well. Or you can ask your girlfriends who have married who they used.
