Getting married is very expensive these days, so a lot of couples are looking for ways to keep the costs down. One of the best ways to do this is to go for a used wedding dress, instead of a brand new one.
Preowned wedding dresses are widely available these days, both on and off the internet, and the prices for second hand wedding dresses are much cheaper than new dresses, so you can really save a lot by choosing a used wedding dress instead of a new one.
Thrift shops may have wedding dresses, as may some consignment shops. Ebay has a large variety of both brand new wedding dresses (the cheapest ones come from Asia) but also many used wedding dresses. Most second hand wedding dresses have only been worn once and have been dry cleaned afterwards, so they are generally in great condition, even if you buy them from a thrift shop or on Ebay.
There are also some websites and online stores that specialize in selling preowned wedding dresses. These sites can be a great option for those looking for a designer wedding dress for a great price, since many of these stores only sell the very best. You can find these sites by entering terms such as "preowned wedding dresses", "wedding dresses for sale", "vintage wedding dresses" or "used wedding dresses" into a search engine such as Google or Yahoo.
When you buy a used wedding dress you should keep in mind that many people alter store bought dresses so that the dresses fit them perfectly. This means that there may be issues with sizing, especially if you buy a dress on Ebay.
In order to avoid that an used wedding dress has been altered too much, check the specifications. Does it say that the dress has been altered or not? If it has, always ask for specifics regarding the changes, but otherwise, opt for dresses that have not been altered in any way. This way you can alter the dress yourself, according to your liking.
If you buy second hand wedding dresses online you must also check all the measurements to see that the dress will actually fit you. Remember that it is always better to buy a slightly bigger dress, since you can have a tailor make it smaller, but it is always much harder to make a dress bigger.
