Where Is the Shop Seunghoon Dance Wedding Dress Busan

The average cost of a wedding dress now stands at £1,385, while an average wedding tots up to a staggering £27,000 in total.

Before I got engaged last September, I would've rolled my eyes at these kind of figures, struggling to understand how anyone could spend the cost of a round-the-world holiday on one single day of their lives.

But now I'm planning a wedding, and have experienced the shock of being quoted £1k just for canapés, I can definitely see how costs start to spiral.

The 'no expense spared' approach is particularly true when it comes to wedding dresses – most women have been brought up on the idea that their bridalwear is the most important outfit of their lives, and that their dress should make them feel a million dollars, with a price tag to match.

However, not everyone has the means or desire to blow a couple of grand on a wedding dress, as is evident from the increasing availability of bridal gowns on the high street.

Topshop, Dorothy Perkins and Boohoo are among the latest brands to introduce wedding dresses to their ranges, starting for as little as £30.

But are these budget gowns any good? And can you really feel special in a dress bought off the peg for hundreds rather than thousands of pounds? I tried on a selection of high street wedding dresses to find out…

Theodora Wedding Dress, £599, Whistles

Whistles' wedding dress collection caused a stir when it was unveiled to fashion editors last year, and with good reason – the collection is chic, modern and flattering, as you can see from this elegant tiered gown.

I love the nipped in waist, high neckline and unusual skirt on this dress, which manages to feel both contemporary and classically pretty all at once.

Sure, this is going to be a bit off-the-wall for people who prefer a big ballgown-style dress, but I think it would work perfectly for a chic city wedding.

Ivory Arabella Wedding Dress, £150, Dorothy Perkins

Dress, Sleeve, Textile, White, One-piece garment, Pattern, Formal wear, Day dress, Fashion, Grey,


Dorothy Perkins is one of the latest brands to enter wedding dress territory, with a range of very reasonably priced gowns.

The Arabella design is vintage-inspired, featuring a fit and flare silhouette and lacy fabric.

Although it feels very demure, you do get a flash collarbone thanks to the Bardot neckline, and it's a good option for brides who prefer a shorter hemline. Ideal for rocking a pair of statement heels, perhaps?

Clarabella Wedding Dress, £325, Phase Eight

Clothing, Dress, Product, Textile, White, One-piece garment, Formal wear, Style, Gown, Day dress,

Phase Eight's Clarabella gown is ultra-feminine – I can imagine any mum would be very happy if their daughter wore this dress to say their vows!

It features a semi-sheer mesh bodice embroidered with flowers, a ribbon around the waist and a soft-sweeping skirt, which makes for a very figure-flattering shape.

I'm a huge fan of mixed fabrics (e.g. lace and mesh) on a wedding dress, so this definitely ticks a few boxes for me!

Sequin Maxi Dress, £50, Boohoo (coming soon)

Sleeve, Shoulder, Textile, Bridal clothing, Dress, Gown, Wedding dress, Beauty, Bride, Waist,

Let's be honest, this dress is a bit out there - a mesh sequined dress over a tiny white slip might not make your granny beam with pride.

However, not every bride wants classic or demure, especially if they're jetting off for a destination wedding.

It's probably not appropriate for my October church wedding, but each to their own!

Rose Wedding Dress, £599, Whistles

Brown, Dress, Textile, White, One-piece garment, Formal wear, Pattern, Gown, Day dress, Wedding dress,


The Rose dress lives up to its romantic name, largely thanks to the all-over lace material and sweeping A-line skirt.

It also nods to current trends, with the Bardot neckline and raised front hem.

I can see this dress working perfectly at an outdoor summer wedding - it's definitely got that English country garden vibe.

Ivory Clara Wedding Dress, £150, Dorothy Perkins

Dress, Sleeve, Standing, White, One-piece garment, Formal wear, Pattern, Day dress, Aqua, Teal,

There's a bit of a Swan Lake vibe to this wedding dress thanks to the 3D floral applique fabric.

One element I did like was the high neckline - I can't stand strapless dresses that you have to keep heaving up, so this is a nice alternative.

It's pretty minimalist, and personally I don't love the figure-hugging skirt, but that's just a matter of personal taste - if you have a killer figure and want to show it off, this dress will definitely do that!

Caleigh Wedding Dress, £325, Phase Eight

If you're a fan of beading, you'll love this striking dress, which features a bodice covered in exquisite pearls (which, incidentally, are very on-trend!)

The elaborate top half is s balanced with a simple skirt, giving a cool, modern feel overall.

My inner magpie is definitely drawn to the detailing, which mirrors some of the (much more expensive) dresses I've seen in boutiques.

Debut Ivory Samantha Dress, £150, Debenhams

Clothing, Dress, Shoulder, Joint, Human leg, Standing, Floor, Flooring, Interior design, Waist,

When I think of wedding dresses, it's normally sweeping floor-length gowns that spring to mind, but many brides prefer a more casual approach.

Take this Debenhams dress, for example, which features a fitted skirt just below the knee, a shawl neckline and satin finish.

There is also statement draping detail at the waist – a great way for creating and enhancing curves.

Vivian Wedding Dress, £549, Whistles

White, Clothing, Dress, Outerwear, Beige, Gown, Light fixture, Sleeve, Lamp,

Traditionally, full-length wedding gowns are the go-to, but many people prefer the cute, casual feel of a knee-length hem.

This Whistles dress is totally different from your standard wedding gown, with its playful organza fabric, flared top and A-line skirt.

My favourite detail is the bow at the back!

Joanna Hope Lace Dress, £50, J.D. Williams

Clothing, White, Dress, Sleeve, Day dress, Outerwear, A-line, Lace, Neck, Cocktail dress,

Simplicity is the key to this J.D. Williams dress, which, at £50, is 26 times cheaper than the average wedding gown in the UK!

The dress is made of stretch lace which means it's ultra-comfy, and has a simple shape with a fluted sleeve for interest.

Just add a big bouquet and you're done…

Debut Ivory Joy Dress, £340, Debenhams

If you love a bit of bling, then this Debenhams number will be right up your street.

I definitely felt ready for the after-party in this hand-beaded dress, which moves nicely thanks to the weight of the embellishment.

I think this would be perfect for a relaxed boho bride, or anyone with a love of sparkle.

Cutwork Lace Bardot Bridal Dress, £450, Topshop

Product, Textile, Dress, One-piece garment, Day dress, Pattern, Grey, Beige, Ivory, Fashion design,

I have to say, when I first saw this dress I thought it looked a little strange, but once I tried it on I actually came round to the quirky, off-the-shoulder design.

The dress is made from silk and a green-grey lace, lending it an ethereal, whimsical feel.

Featuring double slits up the front of the skirt, this dress is not for the faint-hearted.

With its light fabric and halterneck, it's got an Ibiza vibe going on - and at £35, you'd certainly have money left for flights!

Conclusion

I'm actually surprised at how much I loved some of these dresses. There's a real variety available on the high street, ranging from fashion-forward designs to simple, classic cuts.

With all of these dresses costing at least a thousand pounds less than the average bridal gown, I can totally understand why people choose to opt for a high street dress in order to save much-needed funds for their wedding.

And although there were a few dresses that definitely weren't to my taste, I've learnt that buying a dress on the high street definitely doesn't have to mean settling for second best.
