For the next few days, I wanna talk wedding gowns…that illustrious dress that you will wear only once, yet can end up being one of the biggest budget busters. We all want a beautiful dress that we will look amazing in, and those Vera’s and Monique’s are very loudly and clearly calling our names…so what to do when your heart says “couture” and your head says “cost-effective?”
Today, I bring you Option 1-
Buy that awesome designer gown used. I know, I know…you want it to be brand spankin’ new and worn by only you. But hear me out. THE DRESS HAS ONLY BEEN WORN ONCE!!! Once! Outfits at the departments store have been tried on more times. And NO ONE HAS TO KNOW. For sometimes half the original sticker price, you can get an amazingly beautiful designer dress, have it altered, AND professionally dry cleaned so it’s perfect for your day…and even more perfect for your budget.
