How To Pick A Wedding Dress (Buy Or Rent)

Fact: Wedding dresses are not cheap. Usually costing at least a thousand dollars (sometimes more), the price of a gown is even more expensive when you think you’ll only wear it once in a lifetime (unless of course you’re creative and will wear it again).

If you want to spend more on your honeymoon budget than an expensive gown, renting is a popular option that allows you to save money while still wearing an expensive dress in the aisle. It is up to you and your partner to prioritize what really makes the most sense for your wedding day.

Here is a simple guide to help you decide how to pick your wedding dress (buy or rent):

Buying a wedding dress: Pros & Cons

Pros: When you choose to buy a wedding dress, you can go with an available dress or have a dress made just for you. Designing your own wedding dress is a great way to show your personal style and will fit you perfectly. Besides, you can keep it forever as a special memory.

Cons: However, buying a dress can be very expensive and time-consuming, with all the time in the fitting room. And a wedding dress will take up a lot of space for you to store and maintain.

Renting a wedding dress: Pros & Cons

Pros: Renting a wedding dress can really save you money, and time with fewer fitting. You also know the dress style early so you can start shopping for shoes and accessories. And of course, no maintenance for storage is required.

Cons: There will be certain aspects of a dream dress that you can’t find, and even the perfect fit can be a challenge. Also, you won’t be able to give a personal touch on the dress and have to be careful all the time wearing it, or get ready for some liability cost.
