Your wedding day should be one of the happiest days of your life, but unfortunately the pressure and strain of planning your nuptials can be huge. Your wedding budget in particular can be an endless source of stress in the run up to your big day, but it is possible to achieve your dream wedding on a limited budget.
A young bride-to-be who had been scouring the internet in search of her dream wedding gown, finally found one which ticked all the boxes but unfortunately carried a price tag of £1,500. After deciding to explore all her options in the hope of finding a bargain, Mother of two, Emma Dunn came across an accurate reproduction of the dress on eBay. With no reserve price and just 10 minutes of auction time remaining, Emma entered a bid of £2.50 for the beautiful bridal gown.
After an anxious and nail biting wait, Emma picked up an email from her inbox verifying that she had won the auction and that her gown would be dispatched from Shanghai, China in due course.
The elated 23 year old was advised that her wedding dress would be made in China once she had confirmed her measurements, and that she would receive it in approximately six weeks. Emma’s’ ivory coloured satin gown arrived on time via an international courier service, for which she was charged £16.50.
Emma went on to marry her fiancé Paul Worthington in mid-July in the presence of their friends and family. The overall cost of the wedding, inclusive of all outfits, the wedding entertainment and reception was just £3,000.
