Finding your perfect wedding dress can be one of the most exciting moments of the wedding planning process. But it?s also often a significantly expensive endeavor. Here are some ways to save money on this big purchase and still end up with a beautiful gown.
1. Consider Renting a Wedding Dress
There are many websites where you can actually rent a dress for your wedding day. The great thing about this is that it gives you the option to rent a gown that might be much too far out of the budget to purchase, but costs significantly less to rent?and therefore might now be an option for your big day! If you?ve fallen in love with a gown that you?re positive is out of your budget, check out a dress rental site and see if you might still be able to make that dream come true! 2. Shop at a Bridal Outlet or Sample Sale

Bridal outlet stores selling ?out of season? designer gowns for a fraction of the cost or sample sales at bridal boutiques, where dresses are significantly marked down from standard pricing, are both great options for brides looking to save some serious cash on a gorgeous designer gown. These vendors and sales make great options in particular for brides who have designer dreams but require a lower-budget choice. Sometimes these pieces sell for up to 80% off their retail prices! This is also a great option for brides who know they need the dress sooner rather than later, as these sale prices generally mean you will be leaving with the gown in hand.
