Getting married is a beautiful celebration of love and visions of a bright future, but last time we checked, there was no admission fee for love or a happy future. Yet, as the cost for weddings continues to skyrocket faster than a Tesla stock, it can feel impossible to celebrate your special day without taking out a loan for love.
More and more brides are catching on to the unnecessarily expensive structure being foisted on them by the wedding industry. They are instead seeking low-cost alternatives to save that money for the shared household that a wedding is meant to celebrate. One significant way to cut down on wedding day expenses is to find a low-cost wedding dress. Not to worry, low cost does not mean low quality, and here are ten gorgeous wedding dresses all for less than $1,000 to prove it.
