Wedding Whispers is proud to support the 'Brides Aware' campaign to ensure that brides don't get caught out by internet traders selling wedding dresses online and who may not be what they seem. Don't take a risk. You need service when buying your wedding dress and with The Dress List you can still find a wedding dress at a discounted price and get a service from the bridal shop as well. To find out more about Brides Aware visit www.bridesaware.co.uk
We have been doing our bit to match personal service with finding a wedding dress at a discount since 2008 and we'll tell you when we hear about the shops that have them. At present we are featuring Wedding Elegance based in Bridgwater, Somerset and Orange Blossom Bridal Boutique in Weston super Mare. The list of wedding dresses on the Dress List changes on a regular basis so please check availability before your visit.
Generally, discounted wedding dresses become available when the shops get their new collections, or have a line which is no longer available to order from the manufacturer. Discount wedding dresses are usually sold 'off the peg' and unless your dress needs to be altered, you can have it the same day.
The Dress List means you can find a discounted wedding dress and have the reassurance of a personal service from the bridal shop. You may be taking a risk when you order a discount wedding dress online; some dresses may not be what you expect; you can't see the quality of the fabric and you won't be able to try it on. If the size is wrong or you don't like the style you will have the hassle of sending it back and you won't want this hassle.You don't have to take these risks with your precious wedding dress, see the dresses on The Dress List instead; there are many different designers, sizes and prices and best of all, you can try them on before you buy. We should let you know that the discount wedding dresses are never around for long so call the shop first to see if they have your size.
Have a look at the current bridal collections and designers on the Dress List from Orange Blossom Bridal of Weston super Mare. We are expecting a new list from Wedding Elegance based in Bridgwater, shortly. Click on the shop's page to bring up their list and find wedding dresses at a reduced price from Eternity Bridal, Benjanim Roberts, , Ellis, Margaret Lee, Essense, Sincerity and other collections. Many dresses will be at least 50% off which is great if you are on a budget. The wedding dresses featured on The Dress List are not seconds, nor are they 'once worn', but are in store samples that may have been tried on. Some dresses could be new i.e from collections that have been discontinued.
It's easy and it is free to use. Just view the list of bridal shops on this page to see the wedding dresses currently available. The dresses are listed by collection with size, previous price, discounted price and a short description. If your size is not listed, the next size may be worth trying, as wedding dresses vary from standard dress sizes. If you need more details on all the discounted wedding dresses call the shop directly.
Make a note of the code or style listed by the dress. Then call the shop with this code and a short description, so they can advise if it is still in stock. As demand is sure to be high, you are advised to call and establish availability and make an appointment as soon as possible. Some shops prefer brides to make an appointment, so ring first as the shop may be busy with fittings and may not be able to see you if you just call in.
Buying your wedding dress from the Dress List is great for last minute weddings! When you purchase your dress, it is available that day unless it needs an alteration. The dress price will be payable to the shop on the day of purchase and they can advise on cost of alterations locally. Most bridal shops accept credit card transactions, however each shop will have its own trading terms.
If your wedding dress needs an alteration, these are an additional cost. There are also specialist cleaning services for wedding dresses.Ironing 4 U in North Somerset and Geeves The Dry Cleaners in Bristol are both good contacts for wedding dress cleaning.
