Consider Buying a Used Wedding Dress If You Want to Save Money

Many women who are concerned about the cost of a new wedding dress often opt to go the route of using a cheap wedding dress. The reasons for this are many, from simply not having enough to afford a new dress to wanting to spend the money on other things like the honeymoon. What ever the reason cheap wedding dresses are a great way to get married and save money. In fact, buying the used wedding dress will save a big money.

It may not be what you dreamed of, but if you are on a tight budget you can often easily find used wedding dresses (for much lower prices than what you would get new) by looking at thrift shops, or online classifieds like craigslist.

If you think about it, a wedding dress is only worn once. So even if you buy a used wedding dress it most likely has only been worn once, so it is likely to be in very good shape.

If you find something online make sure to talk to the seller and ask specific questions about the state of the dress. Find out whether it’s been cleaned, altered, stained.

If you buy a dress online, try to use PayPal or a credit card so you have some protection from fraud. Never just send cash. Also do not use a debit card, as a credit card provides you more protection than a debit card does.
