DD's dress cost £250 on EBay, (sample) & is still in shops at £850 / £950:)I can cook and sew, make flowers grow.0

I bought a sample for $1000 (700ish pounds) it was orginally
$5500 (3900ish pounds), so I was very happy! It's 100% silk, Priscilla of Boston, which is a very popular brand in the US.
Right after the wedding I plan on putting up on several wedding sites for sale, preownedweddingdresses, oncewed, plus in my knot signature, as well as putting it in a bridal consignment store local to my parents' house. I hope to get at least what I paid back since I paid so little of the retail value, usually dresses go for about 50% of retail value on preowned sites.0 -
Mine was from an Ebay auction - was brand new and i got it for £55 incl postage.
Alterations (length) cost me £20
I paid more for my shoes than I did my dress!
I really couldn't justify spending £'00s on a dress for one day0 -
wow some of you have got fantastic bargains!! I'm aiming for under £200 and am considering a bridesmaid dress for myself as I want purple, and don't really want a mega 'bridey' looking one if that makes sense!0

Mine's £66 plus free postage on Ebay !!!
It's coming from China, which I know some people are put off by as we've all had bad experiences, but I chose a seller with great feedback and checked out previous buyers. I had an email today to say it's on it's way so I am one happy bride-to-be!:kisses2:August 1st 2010...so happy I wanna jump up and down on my bed :j0 -
Mine is £980. It should have been nearer £1100 but i bought it on a desinger weekend and got a discount. I would have paid the full price tho.0

Mine was over 1K but I don't care, it is the only thing we are splashing out on and it is the most beautiful dress ever!:)0

I think mine will be in the £500 to £1K price range, I'm ok with a copy dress from Landy, but my mum and dad are paying for the dress and they arent so if they are happy to pay then thats ok with me
