How much did you spend on your wedding dress?  |
|
 We've reached that point in the planning where it's time (well, actually, past time) to pick out a wedding dress. The trouble is, we can't really figure out where to set the limit. I know I don't want to spend $700 on a new one, or something too high like that, but my fiance also doesn't want me to get one second hand like my mother did because I guess he wants it to be more special or something? I'd be fine with a second hand dress (they have some good ones for $25), but it's his wedding too.
So my question to you was what did you spend on your dress? Do you regret spending that much or if you could do it over would you spend less?I know that I was talking to one of my friends who's been married for about 25 years and she spent $700 on her dress and she regrets it because it got worn once and then pushed into the closet and it hasn't been out since and they could've used the money for something more useful.
So what do you think?

1.  ebsharer (2474) | 7 months ago |  5 years ago I spent $250 on my dress. I found it at a bridal shop that sold all different brands of dresses.
My best friend had to go to a name brand store and ended up spending $890 on her dress just a few months ago.
Funny thing is we both had the same BRAND dress. Alfred Angelo! I just got a much better deal.

| phyrre (713) | 7 months ago | Wow, that's a gorgeous gown! And $70 really is a steal for it. I'll have to talk to Jake again and see if he'll reconsider the second hand thing. I really want a very informal wedding anyway and the less we spend the happier I am. | |

| 3. DkAngelPrincess (212) | 7 months ago |  I ended up spending $30.00 dollars on my wedding dress. I went with a non-tradional wedding dress. I used a cinderalla style prom dress. It is just as pretty as the wedding dresses I picked out. It looks just like one of the wedding dresses I choose. It was $500.00 and I found this one online at a store for $30.00 after Prom times. Happy MyLotting!!

| phyrre (713) | 7 months ago | I was actually thinking of doing something like this. My prom gown was actually a masquerade gown, but it could've passed as a wedding dress. This is definitely a possibility. Thanks for bring it up! | |

| 4. Porcospino (2605) | 7 months ago |  Wedding dresses seem to be very expensive in my country compared to yours. I spent about $1200 on my wedding dress, and I didn't choose one of the expensive ones! I am not even sure that $700 would be enough to buy a wedding dress here, but I guess it would be possible to rent one for that amount. I saw a wedding dress in a second shop and the price was $15, so there is a huge difference between new and used wedding dresses. My father used to joke about it, suggesting I buy a second hand dress instead of a new one, but I wanted a new one, and I don't regret that.

| phyrre (713) | 7 months ago | Yeah, $700 is a cheap wedding dress here. I can't imagine spending more than $1,000 on a dress! But yeah, even here you can get a second hand dress for about $15.:) | |

| 9. purplealabaster (718) | 5 months ago |  I don't think it matters how much you spend on your dress as long as you like it and it looks good on you. Having said that, I think I would have a stroke if I spent $1,000 or more on a dress - lol! The important thing is that you are marrying the man of your dreams that you will spend the rest of your life with.

|
| phyrre (713) | 5 months ago | I agree, that is definitely the most important thing (and I would have a stroke at that amount of money, too!) But I did find the right guy, rest assured, so I guess it worked out. | |
