As we enter the wedding boom of 2022, after two years of uncertainty for brides-to-be, you may be looking for the perfect wedding dress that won’t bankrupt you.
Street brands and independent brands are releasing bridal collections left, right and center, and with prices going up in every other aspect, why not save some money on your outfit?
Whether you’re getting married abroad, on a rooftop in London or at the local registry office, there’s no shame in spending less on your dress (and you won’t feel guilty about spending more on your shoes and accessories either!).
Take your style tips from the countless celebrity weddings that have taken place this year. You can try a mini dress like Kourtney Kardashian (below), who wore Dolce & Gabbana, or a square neckline like Nicola Peltz Beckham (below), who walked down the aisle in Valentino.
From Christopher Kane’s asymmetrical feather design to Whistles’ open train lace style, there are more than enough options to ensure you find the perfect gown for your upcoming nuptials.
Even street brands ASOS, Monsoon and Rixo have entered the market, with dresses for just £38.
So get rolling and let us take the stress out of deciding which outfit you’re going to wear, all of them under £1,000.
