Nobody ever has to know that you got a great deal on your wedding dress. The single most important factor when it comes to clothing is the way it fits: If a gown is perfectly fitted to your body, it will look like it was made for you by a famous designer, no matter what it cost. So if you’re on a tight dress budget, plan to put a significant portion of it toward the services of an expert seamstress. Other than that, keep an eye out for telltale low-quality work: Does the beading look flimsy? Are the seams well finished? If you spot a flaw that can’t be corrected easily, move on to the next mannequin.

2. Things to keep in mind when buying an inexpensive wedding
dress.
1. Where can I get a cheap wedding dress?.
The good news, it is possible to get a cheap wedding dress
that doesn't look bad.
Nobody ever has to know that you got a great deal on your wedding
dress. The single most important factor when it comes to clothing is the
way it fits: If a gown is perfectly fitted to your body, it will look like it
was made for you by a famous designer, no matter what it cost. So if
you’re on a tight dress budget, plan to put a significant portion of it
toward the services of an expert seamstress.
Other than that, keep an eye out for telltale low-quality work: Does the
beading look flimsy? Are the seams well finished? If you spot a flaw
that can’t be corrected easily, move on to the next mannequin.

3. 2. How do I make sense of all the different fabrics out there?
You can find descriptions of common fabrics but your best bet is to get
your hands on the real thing, either at a fabric store or a bridal salon .
Fabrics have individual strengths and weaknesses, depending on your
priorities.
Some materials, like silk satin, are best for providing support and
structure, while transparent fabrics, like organza and tulle, are better
for achieving a romantic, ethereal effect. It never hurts to ask if you can
order your Wedding dress in a different fabric.
Want to save some money? Check out rayon blends, which have the
look of silk without the expense.
To get a sense of how a fabric will behave over the course of your
wedding, bunch it up tightly in your hand. If it’s wrinkled after a
minute or so, imagine what it will look like by midnight.

4. 3. You can find pretty alternatives to traditional wedding dresses.
You can shop for your wedding gown keeping in mind other popular
options:
A skirt suit in a light color, which is a sophisticated look that flatters
most body types. Make sure that the cut is very feminine, so you look
like a bride, not a CEO.
A two-piece skirt-and-top combination, especially if it is made from a
silky fabric or has beading.
Baby-doll and tube-style dresses in any color are cute and playful for
more casual affairs.
When in doubt, a stunning black dress never fails and it can be a very
inexpensive wedding dress.

5. 4. You can incorporate parts of a family gown into your wedding dress
You probably don’t want to wear your great-grandmother’s dress as is.
But, luckily, there are other ways to incorporate an inherited gown. You
can try these tips to get an inexpensive wedding dress:
You can use the lace from an old gown to create your veil or an overlay,
or have the lace made into a rosette on your dress.
The material can also be as the base for your bouquet or used for a sash
that you can wear around your waist, or placed onto the bodice of your
gown.
If you like the basic structure of the gown, have a seamstress shorten or
lengthen the dress, removing or adding features as you see fits best on
you.

6. 5. Try saving on trains: How long is too long?
Almost anything goes―just remember that you’re the one who’s going
to be wearing it. Your choices range from no train at all to a full royal
train, which extends back for more than nine feet and are normally
more expensive.
If you’re looking to make a dramatic entrance but would rather not
require the assistance of a small army, opt for a four-foot chapel-length
train. Avoid adding up length if you are on a tight budget.
Whatever train length you prefer, ask your dress retailer if it is
detachable, meaning you can take it off after the ceremony, or will need
to be bustled at the base of the bodice.

7. 6. How do I ensure that my dress will look its best on the Big Day?
In Two words: Handle carefully.
Should anything happen to stain or wrinkle the dress, don't take
matters into your own hands. Call your bridal salon for help or take it
to the nearest cleaner.
Put off picking it up from the shop for as long as possible. It should be
given to you in a garment bag. Once you get home, take it out
immediately and hang it from the highest possible point, so the train
and hemline don't touch the floor.
If you are traveling. Place the dress to the garment bag and repeat the
process later. When flying, ask if you can carry it on-board.
