Wedding Budget Tip: Wedding Attire

Wedding Budget Tips brought to you by: Bravo Bride

* Most of the big bridal shops have huge sales once a year, which are typically held at hotels or other venues like wedding shows. Look in your local paper or ask a wedding planner to find out what time of the year the sales are held.

* Think about looking in unconventional places to buy bridesmaids gowns.  Go shopping for them during prom season and after New Years Eve at department stores or online.  A bridesmaid’s gown doesn’t have to come from a bridal shop.

* Many menswear shops will let your groom rent his tuxedo for free or provide a discount if his groomsmen rent their tuxes there.
