Justin Alexander bridal dresses

POSTED BY: tessb 2 weeks, 1 hour ago

I have fallen in love with Justin Alexander dresses, but at over £1K I'm finding it hard to justify the expense. Does anyone know of anywhere where I can get one of these wedding dresses for a few quid less? Maybe import one from abroad?

My neighbour sells wedding dresses, shall I ask him for you?

If so do you have a number, picture or description of it.

Hi, last year i found the perfect dress for me and again it was over £1000.00 in the bridal shop, i found the same one made to measure on ebay from china for £250.00 the only difference was, when it arrived it was lighter in weight than the one in the shop, when you think that you are wearing it all day this was actually a big advantage. Maybe worth a look

remember - buyer beware - if it seems too good to be true - then it probably is -

I have been looking at this site to buy a nikon d300 - prices range from $900 to $4000 quite a spread you would agree

have done a little search and this is the first result - have a look at it before you part with any money

take care

I had wondered about the dresses from China, but I was concerned that the material would be cheap or that the dress wouldn't be well made. Yeah I know I only get to wear it for one day, but in my book that's all the more reason to get the dress I really, really want, it's my only chance!!!

If you google once worn dresses there are several sites and shops that specialise in selling on wedding dresses which will obviously be at a big cost reduction as they aren't brand new - normally sold at about half price. They give exact measurements etc and most have outlets so you can visit (by appointment) and try the dresses on. Sorry, I can't remember any names but I looked into these a few years ago as the dress I wanted was £1800. I remember there was one near Reading......If I can remember anything more i'll post again. Good luck

I searched once worn wedding dresses via google and came up with the following:

www.thedressmarket.net
www.theweddingdressmarket.co.uk
www.1stcal forweddings.co.uk
www.almostnewweddingdresses.com
www.preloved.co.uk

and a few new ones that weren't around when I was searching. Definately worth a look as you may get lucky. Unfortunately I wasn't and had no choice but to buy my dress new as I couldn't find a preowned one. I definately would have bought a nearly new one given the chance as £1800 is a lot of money to have sitting in my wardrobe doing nothing!!

I had a look at these too and there are some nice ones available.
