Are you a bride on budget? These days so many of us are, so what options do you have for a wedding dress? Well for starters most new order-able gowns cost around $800 and up. That said this is usually a more basic gown. If you are looking for something with a little more bling you might have to be creative in your shopping. Maria Lin on Living Frugally gives 6 tips for scoring a cheap wedding dress. http://www.learnvest.com/living-frugally/style-and-beauty/would-you-buy-a-used-wedding-dress/. In her post she talks about sample sales, online venues, and some mass retailers such as JCrew etc… However she left out the famous Running of the Brides at Filene’s Basement, and the local used wedding gown shop. There are many used and sample wedding gowns for sale online, but would you buy a dress without trying it on, or even seeing it? What do you think? Online wedding gowns a good idea? Or would you prefer to try them on? If the price was low enough would you buy it sight unseen anyway? Let me know!
