Plus, I find it hard to believe that it is NECESSARY to spends thousands on a wedding gown. It might take a little more time and effort to shop around and find the perfect dress with a smaller budget, but reasonably priced dresses that aren't horrible are there. I have a formal dress that I joke will be my wedding dress...it won't really, but it was a $600 dress from a popular designer and was meant to be an evening gown, but really could be a wedding dress just as well. Now I know to think outside the box.

From watching this show you'd think it was normal for wedding gowns to be $5000 and up. It's not. In 2/3 of the shops I went to, almost every gown was less than $1,500. The only ones that are thousands of dollars are designer/couture dresses. You can find hundreds/thousands of beautiful dresses - in nice fabrics, I might add - for a fraction of the price of a designer dress. I would never pay a designer price tag for a dress I'm going to wear once, even if it is my wedding gown.
