Hi ladies! So my husband and I never had a wedding (just married through courthouse) and we are planning on having a wedding within two years for our ten year anniversary. We will be paying for everything so our budget isn't too too much, so I was thinking to save a little money maybe I should rent a dress. Are any of you renting a dress and if so, why and where?

Congrats and welcome to the site! I'm sure you'll find helpful tips and ideas here that will help you with your planning!

 

I don't know what you're looking for in a dress, but there are tons of options available that would allow you to buy a dress. I can't say that I've ever heard of dress rental places. It used to be popular years ago, but I think more nowdays it's tough to find.

 

You could check the classified ads section of this site. As well, Davids Bridal has a number of options available that are pretty inexpensive. There is also a great website called:  www.preownedweddingdresses.com  There are hundreds of options there from used, to new still with tags to sample dresses. Definitely worth a look!

 

I bought my dress and I'm very glad I did. I didn't pay a lot for it - I don't know what your budget is - but I'm thinking that even if you find somewhere that deals with rentals, it will probably cost you just as much. You might need to do a little fingerwork on the computer in order to look but it could be worth it!

 

We're working on a vow renewal for next year too if all goes well! Good luck and happy planning!

Congrats ans welcome to the forum hytobias. 

 

I totally agree with acw271011, It may actually be cheaper to buy a dress, depending on your budget, the are lots of wholesalers shops out there. and some sites that sells second hand dress for very low prices.  keep scouting you will find something.

 

Happy Planning and congrats on your 10yr anniversary.

I agree! It would probably be cheaper to buy your dress. Etsy sells beautiful wedding dresses for pretty cheap! Also my sis in law got her wedding dress from Davids Bridal for 120 dollars! It fit her perfectly and she needed no alterations!!

If you want rent a dress there's renttherunway.com you can find a white dress that you could use a as a bridal dress.  Also there are some affordable dress options like getting a bridesmaids dress in white.  I have 2 dresses one for my church ceremony at home and one for Mexico and the second dress I bought in Macys off the rack it is perfect and I only paid $140.00 for it.   788dfeee6e428e5395720c68a99f6abc.jpg

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
