Cheap Wedding Gowns Do Exist

Cheap Wedding Gowns

By cheap wedding gowns we don’t mean tacky, but an inexpensive wedding dress that's beautiful. There are many wedding dress designs.

You can find casual or formal, long or short, one-piece or two-piece, vintage or modern bridal dresses.

Your wedding dress doesn’t even have to be white. These days there are more colored ones available. In fact, white bridal gowns didn’t even become the thing until the mid nineteenth century. Before that it was the color of your choice for your bridal gown.

The budget for your big day shouldn’t determine how pretty or how sentimental it will be. A good place to start cutting costs is the wedding gown.

Wedding Dress Tips:

Look in magazines to get ideas from wedding dress designers…if you sew this would help you a lot.

If you’ve picked a simple wedding dress or a short wedding dress, you can make a tulle apron very inexpensively to wear over the skirt. Do this by gathering tulle and sewing ribbon on for a waistband to tie into a bow. A long tulle apron over a short skirt is very pretty. Ask at the fabric store, what amount of material you need. Tulle is very cheap.

You don’t even have to hem tulle. You can leave it as is or cut around the bottom with scalloped scissors.

Sew a two-piece dress by making a top from your choice of fabric or buying a top. The skirt can be made from about five layers of tulle. Gather, add a waistband and wear a slip underneath.

Check out the mall department stores. You might find (not in the wedding dress department) the perfect dress for you. There may be some cocktail dresses, formal dresses or prom dresses on sale.

Then there are new and used as well as vintage bridal gowns on eBay.com. You can find some great dresses for very little money here. You do need to check back often, though. You might find a simple dress that you can add to or alter. Or you might find exactly what you're looking for as long as you are willing to be patient and keep checking back. It is worth the effort.
