I was innocently clicking through an earning website and found a link to some really beautiful wedding dresses that are from a clothing shop rather than from a specialist wedding dress shop... And are very cheap too!! I found the perfect dress for me, bridesmaids and flower girls as well as groom, user, page boys and more! All realy Nice 'cheap'! hee hee I just had to show my other half the bridesmaid dresses and he wants a deep blue in satin so then the groom and men will all have the accents to fit the outfits.. But they only had light baby blue which didnt really look that nice really... and for some of my family being dark skin, they would look odd too. So really shouldnt be looking but had to save the link to be able to flick back for the wedding dress at least! But the smallest shoes they do are 4... I'm a size 3 so will have to shop around for them... Wonder, if there are any other Nice 'cheap' wedding sales going on...? Shall I look?

Hy I don't wanna be mean, but have you thought of a rental? You could rent the dress, and it's quite cheap, at least in my country, and you can have a beautiful dress:D and keep the money for more drinks etc, and maybe a honeymoon?

thanks for your input... have thought a rental.. but fiance wants to buy one for me and buy his as well as the rest of the family.. and teh budget does include a honeymoon... though we are thinking of asking for money towards honeymoon rather than gifts.. might be easier for them and us as well

Do what you can to keep it cheap. Shop around. One of the biggest problems new couples have is debt & an expensive wedding can be a huge part of it.

Thanks for the input dear MyLot friend.. We do want to keep a budget... haven't talked much about a budget but he wants to do things properly yet i just want my family there. dont really care about the food or design etc... lol funny really it should be opporsite really. He should be the one who doesnt really care and I should be the one who wants it all to be right... It's our day so we should just let it go as the day takes us really... slip ups are bound to happen so we just want to laugh them off and enjoy it all.

You should consider dividing your budget furter. Spend half what you were considering on the wedding itself, 1/4 on alcahol & put the other 1/4 away. You should be off to a good start that way. Care to know why marriges a few centuries lasted longer? They had an actual honey moon. The term was actually derived from the practice of bringing enough mead ( an alcahol made from honey ) as a gift for the married couple to enjoy for a whole month ( moon to moon ). You spent the first month of marrige liquired up as hell.

The wedding seasons when are on it needs all that good and best stuff for that auspicious day. There are many outlets open in the online, especially many of the closer shops to your area, these days will be providing the online shopping experiences for sure. Its best and cheap to buy out from the whole sale sellers. The excessive prices are cut sort and the margins are pretty low, for sure. www.thebridalwearcompany.co.uk/ www.weddingdressesforsaleonline.com/ Some that I found from the searches. Its good that one choose these urgent dresses from the hand touched shops else there won't be any choice but to wear them even if you like it or not, the color if doesn't go by the day or any other stuff material discomforts can all be an issue, I would say buy them offline for the best choice available, huh!

Thanks for the comment and advice dear MyLot friend.. I will take a look at those links. Do believe that the day will be the best whatever we end up wearing or what we plan for it. I'm marrying the one person who i want to be forever and the whole family will be there to see it. That is all I care about.

Did your fiance freak out when you showed him the site? Or have you already set a date, that it is actually looking at dresses, and possible savings for the big day? There are a lot of un-named dressmakers out there that actually make great dresses, but lack marketing. Or a way to get their designs out there. Goodluck in your search!

He seems more into it now... and when I spotted some bargain bridesmaid dresses, he evan said he wanted a different colour! so i do think that i will be thinking more on the saving side as he used to be worrying about and he wil want to be on the 'does this look better or that colour?' hee hee

you really need to shop around for the reason of savings having a huge wedding can be a problem in the future because of money matters.If you can still find time to look around and see where can you buy everything that is as perfect as you see it but cost you for a little then that would be a great idea and help you the most..don't just go and find dresses that is really perfect for the affair but,would give you a problem in the future and by the way congratulations
