Bargain Wedding Gowns
(Robbi Ernst III, Great Wedding Tips From the Experts)
Bridal/Wedding gowns are often the first
big wedding purchase, many women have learned an expensive lesson shopping for a
bargain dress at a "one day warehouse sale". Before you shop for your
wedding gown or dress, consider these precautions:
If the price seems too good to be true, it
probably is: Don't be taken in by previous price tags they're often
inflated. The shopworn dress which seems to be such a great bargain might be
almost the same price, ordered new from a bridal boutique local bridal shop.
Don't buy without seeing the dress in a full
length, 3 way mirror, while wearing appropriate shoes. Alterations on
wedding gowns and dresses can be incredibly expensive if you buy the wrong
size or a style that is not good for your figure. The combined cost of the
alterations and the bargain dress or gown may be more than you would
have paid for a new dress in the right size.
Some cleaners will not accept a dress to be
cleaned prior to a wedding unless they know the fabric content and the stain
origins, so don't buy a wedding dress or gown with all labels removed.
Don't be pressured to make an instant decision
by someone saying "if you don't take that dress, I want to buy
it"; or "it won't be here tomorrow."
Don't buy a wedding dress or gown (or any
merchandise or service) from a merchant that does not have a permanent local
address and phone number.
If you're looking for a bargain gown
that is also a great value, watch for sales from established bridal shops,
reputable bridal shop merchants. Better yet, visit local bridal shops and
boutiques. Many brides don't realize most bridal shops have a sizable inventory
of lovely discontinued sample gowns and dresses. A reputable bridal shop will
give you the same service on a sale gown as on a full price wedding gown.
