Consider buying a second hand wedding dress or buying one online (these are usually made in Asia).  Before you do, here's some tips to consider:

What to consider before buying your wedding gown online

The 7 dos and don'ts of buying a wedding dress online

6 factors to consider when buying a second hand wedding dress

Here's the dress I ordered online, with a few minor alterations it worked out exactly as I wanted it for a fraction of the price.  I met with the Australian based business owner and sent her plenty of photos. I think the dress was made overseas but it was good to have someone here I could liaise with regularly.  Purchasing your dress online isn't for everyone, but if you are considering it, my tip is to leave plenty of time for alterations *just in case*!

Most importantly, don't forget to have fun and enjoy this time! It's beautiful :-)

Good luck brides to be! x
