Short on cash?  Where to Buy Cheap Bridesmaid Dresses for your Wedding!

In general, when it comes to purchasing cheap bridesmaids dresses, there are two considerations to bear in mind: the style of the dress and the cost of the dress. While a bride will want her bridesmaid dresses to be affordable, most bridesmaid dresses for cheap have an almost comical reputation for their ugliness. However, it is quite possible to find bridesmaid dresses that will be both affordable and stylish if you know where to look for them. By following a few simple ideas for starting your search, you will find a style of dress that your bridal party will be able to afford with ease. Consider the following methods of locating these dresses:

• Rentals – Rather than buying cheap and stylish bridesmaid dresses, you should consider renting them. Most rental locations carry the latest styles, and renting these dresses cost a fraction of what it would to purchase them. Moreover, most shops are willing to accommodate reasonable alterations to the dresses, and the cleaning and steaming of the dresses will already be performed for the entire bridal party.  If you cannot locate a brick and mortar rental store in your area, there are also websites online that are geared towards bridal rentals.

• Online Comparison Shopping – Another option for buying discount bridesmaid dresses is to use an online comparison shopping search engine, like Froogle. With this tool, bridesmaid dresses for cheap that are within your price range may be located. The only potential problem with purchasing a dress online is that the entire bridal party will not be able to try this dress on before it is purchased; however, if a similar style can be found at a bridal boutique, your bridesmaid will be able to try this model on before it is purchased through the search engine. You must also bear in mind that a small amount of money may need to be spent on alterations.

• Department Stores – Department stores can actually be a great location for buying discount bridesmaid dresses. If you are willing to think slightly outside of the box, then you will be able to locate potential bridesmaid dresses in the formal-wear or dressy section of the store. Because these dresses are not considered “traditional” bridesmaid dresses, they will cost considerably less. Furthermore, most department stores cannot be surpassed in the selection of sizes that they carry. Always remember that if a dress does not fit properly, it can be taken to a seamstress for alterations.
