The search for the perfect wedding dress can take months (years, in some cases, or so we’ve heard…), and finding a good deal can be next to impossible. For some, you’ll be so relieved when you finally find The Dress you’ll plunk down whatever it costs. But if you’re searching for a great gown and a great deal and you’re the sort of person capable of making quick decisions: good news! You can find sample sale vintage inspired bridal gowns and discount designer wedding dresses at truly amazing prices all over the web.
While some designer discount sites require all items to be sold as-is or final sale, there are plenty that have the same return protections and policies as other sites. The main difference? They often only have a few of each gown in stock, or one or two sizes, so you need to make a snap decision if you’re interested, or another bride might beat you to it!
Today we’re going to feature a few of our current favorite heavily discounted designer wedding dresses, and sample sale vintage inspired bridal gowns: every single one is marked down at least 50% from its original retail price, and a few as much as 80%. Think fast, ladies! And good luck.
First up, this gorgeous 1920s beaded flapper dress was originally $348 now marked down to $83 (!!). Available in only a few sizes now, including a plus size option. Perfect for a reception dress too. If you want it, you better hustle!
Mega bridal retailer David’s Bridal has a giant section on their website devoted entirely to sample sale wedding dresses, and there are a lot of stellar finds in there, including these beauties:
Another lovely flapper / reception dress find from Unique Vintage, this 1920s Ivory Flapper Dress was originally $350, now marked down 50% (this one has a few more sizes left, and is also available in plus sizing):
We’d be remiss if we didn’t remind you to be sure to check out the rotating selection of stunning vintage inspired wedding dresses in our very own Art Deco Shop (some bargains to be had!). And then finally we’ve got this collection of heavily discounted designer wedding gowns from Sue Wong, BHLDN and more. Happy shopping, and think fast!
Love this gorgeous, simple, art deco inspired wedding gown from designer Claire Pettibone (with incredible photos by uber-talented photographer Jose Villa.) The “Lydia” dress features draped cotton, a bubble hem, English lace accents and cascading bustle. Perfection. This gown is from an older collection and no longer available for sale – we suggest you check …
Well, its happened. We’ve fallen in love again, hard. Because we recently came across the designs of Eliza Jane Howell (actually designer Gill Harvey: the name is an homage to her grandmother) and we’re absolutely, crazily, 100% smitten with these incredible 1920s wedding dresses. 2024 update: Please note this popular post features a collection from …
It’s been a while since we checked back on the collection of vintage style wedding dresses at one of our favorite 1920s + 30s inspired online bridal retailers (the reliably swoon-worthy BHLDN) but we took a look over the weekend at some of their newer gowns and WOW. And yay! And wow. First up, one …
Today we’re going to talk about finding that perfect vintage style wedding dress on a budget. Unless you are some variety of many-multi-millionaire (and if so: CONGRATS!), figuring out where to splurge and where to tighten your wedding-budget-belt is a constant dance. It’s also very personal, with a lot of individual factors weighing in (total …
