If you got engaged over the festive period, here’s how to find a knockout frock for a lot less . . .
SHOW TIME: Bridal shows often offer exclusive discounts and promotions on the day.
Now is the time to book tickets for The National Wedding Show, which takes place on March 1-3 at Birmingham NEC, or at London’s Excel Centre, March 23-24. Head to ukbride.co.uk to find a multibuy discount code for tickets.

Websites like stillwhite.com and rockmywedding.co.uk sell worn dresses at significantly reduced prices. There are so many on offer that often you can find the exact designer and style you want.
SIMPLE STYLE: Intricate lace, beading, and embroidery can significantly increase the cost of a wedding dress. Why not go for something more simple and then add your own details at home or with the help of a local dressmaker?
SAMPLE SALE: Bridal boutiques often host sample sales and trunk shows to clear out older stock or showcase new collections.
This is a golden opportunity to snag a designer gown at a fraction of the original price. Keep an eye on local shops and don’t be afraid to ask staff about upcoming sales or events.
