Discount Wedding Dresses – Why Pay for Bad Service?
If you have recently been shopping for a wedding dress did you find the experience enjoyable? Did the high street sales assistants make you feel, firstly like a valuable customer and secondly like you were the most important person in the world. After all isn’t that what being a bride is all about? This is you special occasion and feeling like a princess should be part of the whole process.
Strangely I have had many brides report that they felt positively uncomfortable while shopping for their dress. It’s almost as if the sales assistants don’t realise that the higher price you pay on the High Street is purely and simply for customer service i.e. you indirectly pay them to make you feel special.
If you are not finding the process a joy because of a poor attitude or you feel uncomfortable getting undressed in front of strangers you might find shopping online more to your liking.
Online stores pass on the saving they make by not having a physical store to pay for but you also do not have to pay for the lack of service from sales assistants. Of course there are many great stores which do give excellent customer service but if your budget is more important to you than being pampered then you should consider buying online.
Don’t pay for non existent service. In today’s world of tight credit supply wasting money is no longer seen as a clever; the smart bride is a discerning one who gets best value for her hard earned money.

Tips to Consider Before Choosing Discount Wedding Dresses
Your wedding dress is possibly the most important item of clothing you will ever buy therefore it is essential that you choose carefully. The following points are worth considering before you make your decision.
- Time: Unless you are buying an already made dress or buying a shop sample you will need to allow 6 months for your gowns to be made. Yes many retailers will promise it much sooner but really you do not need the stress involved. A dress that is even a week late will give you sleepless nights so order early and give yourself plenty of time for adjustments.
- Style: There are only five basic styles of wedding gown, A line, Ball gown, Mermaid, Column and Empire. Very few brides will have the body shape to look good in them all so be honest with yourself and choose carefully. There is no point buying a beautiful dress that just does not suit your body shape. You want to look your best on your special day; you can achieve that only by choosing a style which best fits your body.
- Material: This is the one day in your life that you need to be comfortable in what you are wearing. If you intend wearing the dress all day then think about how heavy it is and how hot you are going to be. If you are getting married in a hot climate naturally choose light materials. Even if you are in a cooler climate remember about the weight of the dress.
- Price: The cost of hosting a wedding has grown astronomically in recent years pushed up by the publicity around celebrity weddings. The credit crunch has changed the mindset of many brides who see themselves as financially aware and so demand more for their money. To this end many brides are choosing to make savings on their gown which can either reduce their over all budget or put toward enjoying the honeymoon. There are many ways to save on your gown, store sample sales or buying online and cutting out the middle man is another.
- Label: This is directly linked to price, if the label is important to you then go right ahead and pay through the nose for it. Just remember that most dress designers have their gowns manufactured in China including the top brands. Ask yourself if paying two or three times the price for the same quality gown is really what you want to do?
- Source: Yet again this is linked to price. The high street has huge overheads which are reflected in their prices although you should at least get good service and be made to feel special. If you are not getting that extra service then don’t pay for it; rather buy online and make fantastic savings.
The Truth about Discount Wedding Dresses
Did you know that the vast majority of the major high street wedding labels have their wedding dresses manufactured in China? Despite what you may think the quality of the Chinese products are of a very high standard. So why do people pay $2000 plus for a wedding gown on the high street or from a major online retailer when they could save $100s ordering directly from China? The answer is a question of trust; will you ever see your dress, will you get your money back if you are not happy, are you protected by the consumer laws existing in Europe, North America or Oceania?
Of course the trick to discount shopping is to take the middle road by ordering through a UK based online company which supplies directly from China but guarantees your customer satisfaction. You can have your dream dress for much, much less and still have your money back guarantee. How do you know that? Well UK companies are bound by trading standards which protect you as a consumer for both quality of product and service.
So if you are considering buying your dream dress online and want to take advantage of the huge savings available from China then check out the many online bridal stores who specialise in getting you more bang for your buck. You will find a wide selection of top quality discount wedding dresses in styles you know will not be available to other brides in your area.
Be a smart bride and start your marriage on the right foot by making your money go as far as possible; not only will he think you look gorgeous but he’ll also be proud of your financial prowess as well.
