Getting married is not an easy decision especially since it involves a lot of financial considerations. One of the considerations that needs to be made is purchasing of the perfect wedding dress.

The problem is, it may need breaking the bank when purchasing that wedding dress. The good thing is, there are ways to find cheap wedding dresses that still look presentable and can even rival those made by popular designers.

Here are some tips:

•    Other brides tend to sell their dresses in a bid to regain some costs or use the money to buy more clothing. This may be the best time to buy the dress at reasonable costs. You can check the internet for reliable sites that offer pre-owned wedding dresses.

•    Ditch the train: You may want to go for a shorter dress because it tends to cost less. Weddings these days can be more casual than normal and shorter dresses would pass.

 

Rumors are swirling over the upcoming marriage of Renee Zellweger and Bradley Cooper.

The popular Page Six of the New York Post has created an impression that the actress may soon be tying the knot once more after she was photographed near a stack of wedding dresses and wedding lignerie at Carolina Herrera located in West Hollywood.

The magazine reported that the Academy Award-winning actress only smiled when she was asked if she’s going to get married once more. She left the establishment with a new purse, rather than the dress.

However, the rumors sparked once more when Cooper was seen visiting the actress’ parents at the Tribeca Grand in New York. Speculations arose that Cooper may be asking for their daughter’s hand in marriage.

Even if the rumors are not true, it is clearly obvious that the two celebrities are in a serious relationship. It is just a matter of time that they’ll announce something big in the coming months.

 

Bridal gowns are usually worn once by women – during their wedding. However, the dress is just too pretty and expensive to be stored in the dark after the wedding. Women are wondering if it financially feasible to restyle their bridal gowns into regular dresses. This way, they can use the dress in special occasions.

However, fashion experts believe that it won’t be financially reasonable to restyle bridal gowns as regular dresses. In fact, it may be hard to find the right dressmaker and the results may not be satisfying, and there’s really no way to go back to the original design.

The best option is to sell the dress and use the money to buy a great-looking dress. The price may be enough to buy more than a dress.

Should there be a push for restyling the dress, then experts suggest to cut down the gown by removing the train and the skirt will be shortened to knee level.

 

Former glamour model Katie Price is reportedly in a dilemma right now because she could not find a designer to make her wedding dress and the ceremony is just a few weeks away.

According to tabloid reports, Price is still looking for a popular designer to create her dress. However, some of the biggest names in the industry have reportedly declined the opportunity because they find the upcoming nuptials to be very “tacky.” Price is set to marry Alex Reid.

Price was reportedly quoted saying that there’s no need for these designers to be “snobby” because she has the ability to pay them. She added that the dress will certainly get media interest since she will be photographed and the pictures will be posted in prominent magazines and in the news as well.

 

Traditional white wedding dresses have always been the preferred choices by women but modern times have changed that view, with a wide array of coloured wedding dresses that look great and do catch the attention of everyone.

Several dozens of coloured wedding dresses will be featured at the third annual Rose Walk at the Rosemount which takes place from June 8 to 12. This event was made possible by the Rosemount Museum Auxiliary.

Event co-chairman Nancy Lomax said that this is the perfect time of the year to stage this event especially since the rose gardens are in full bloom at this time. She added that the scent of the flowers has made the visit to the museum very refreshing.

Lomax said that different coloured wedding dresses will be featured in every room and most of the dresses have dated back in the 1800s.

 


It is an obvious revelation that actress and reality TV star Tori Spelling has a thing for shoes. She cared more for them than the wedding dress or the wedding lingerie.

In the renewal of her vows to husband Dean McDermott earlier this month, Spelling decorated the set of the event with her favorite shoes, ranging from regular, branded and wedding shoes.

The renewal of vows happened in front of the couple’s family and friends. The ceremony was held in Beverly Hills at one of their closest friend’s mansion. After the event, the guests and the couple went inside the mansion for cocktails.

Spelling revealed that they planned the ceremony several months ago. She said that she wants the motif of the wedding to be both her and McDermott. She revealed that her husband loves scuba equipment and motorcycles while she goes for jewelry and shoes.

The couple married four years ago. They have two kids named Liam and Stella.
