Unless you are a bride-to-be who uses the word “budget” only when telling a joke, you are probably being pretty smart about your wedding spend. Shopping around for best-priced suppliers, getting those venue deals, finding your wedding gown for less at an out-of-town boutique, or going DIY… yes we all know what that’s like. You will find piles of brilliant advice online about how to save money on your big day. But what SHOULD you spend your money on to have the best wedding day ever? The answer is very simple!
When we first imagined our magical wedding day, many of us saw ourselves in our dress, as carefree and as beautiful as a bride should be. One word we weren’t thinking of was ‘compromise’. However a lot of us are having to pull up our boot straps and tighten our corsets in an effort to make our cash stretch that bit further for the big day, and one of the things we are forced (kicking and screaming) to look at, is the dress. But worry not my stylish-if-a-little-frightened friends, you have PLENTY of choices to make when cutting the cost of your dress! From renting your bridal accessories, to hitting the high street, to finding out that charity shops actually stock BRAND NEW wedding dresses, you’re in for a stylish surprise.
