    I am not aware of a wedding specific charity shop but you could try your local charity shops as they may well have wedding dresses in stock and you can always ask. Remember if you want bits n bobs then there is always freecycle.

    It's Barnardo's on Gorgie Road, you need to make an appointment though. I believe there are a few around the UK, as well as Oxfam Bridal shops too.
    Got married 23rd May 2009, many thanks to all on the Weddings and Anniversaries board for their help and support!

    Our local Oxfam shop have a Wedding dress department. I believe they have several of these shops around the country.

    I've seen another local Cancer Charity shop that also have a wedding dept, so it might be worth ringing round some of your local shops and ask them.
