Why Women Are Buying Inexpensive Bridal Gowns Under $99

I'm going to ask for comments regarding what I am about to discuss with you and I hope you will come forward and share your honest thoughts. Let's talk bridal gowns. Yes, it is true that your wedding day is one of the biggest days of your life and most women that I knew also want a wedding dress that was the most beautiful for this day…but at what cost?

Nowadays, a wedding dress comes with a price, most often a price tag much higher than women would like to pay, nonetheless they pay it because they want all eyes on her as she marches down the aisle.

When I got married years ago, my parents spent so much on the wedding itself that they couldn't afford to buy me the wedding dress of my dreams so I was fortunate enough to get one on lend from a family member. Although I was most grateful, I still had wished that I had a dress of my own to pass on to my daughter or at least to keep in a box in my closet or attic to remember my wedding day and reminisce about the magical memories of that special day. Unfortunately, not all weddings last.

It's 2018 and times have certainly changed. In this era that we are now living in the divorce is on the rise and in 2017 the statistics showed that somewhere between 45-55% of the people that got married are getting divorced or have already divorced. Are women purchasing bridal gowns because they want to save money or are they buying them because they figure why spend so much if the marriage may not  last?

First of all, we hope that all marriages last forever. We aren't going to chat about divorce today…we are going to talk about why women are turning to lower cost wedding dresses. When a woman buys a wedding dress that is on sale or at an inexpensive cost people think that they are being cheap, and to say that you bought a 'cheap' wedding dress to many people honestly just sounds tacky. The word 'cheap' in itself just sounds bad....so just say inexpensive.

Truth be told, there are a lot of beautiful wedding dresses on the market today that are stunningly gorgeous and super inexpensive. Inexpensive is a much better word to use than cheap, wouldn't you agree? How inexpensive? I'm talking under $99 inexpensive. At Simply Delicious our online store takes great pride in delivering women affordable bridal gowns that are exquisite.

Brides-To-Be...Don't Stress, Delegate Responsibility!

Oh ladies...we stress out over this for months on end. Your wedding day, the day that you have played over and over in your head for years and years is finally here. Do you know how to delegate responsibilities so that you don't fall apart at the seams? Lets face it, most women have been dreaming and fantasizing of their wedding day since they were little girls. A bride to be has a clear idea of how she would like every detail of her wedding to be like. While it is very important to know exactly what you want, it’s also important to realize that planning a wedding is a major responsibility and that it’s entirely too stressful for the bride to take care of every detail herself. Many brides have a difficult time relinquishing any responsibilities involved with planning her wedding for fear of losing control but it’s really in her best interests to learn to delegate responsibilities. The maid of honor, parents of the bride, parents of the groom and even the groom are probably all eager and willing to help out with the wedding plans and it is important to let them do so. 

The key to delegating responsibilities is to entrust others to take control of areas that you may not be especially particular about. For example the favors are a very important part of the wedding and the bride most likely wants to shop for and choose the favors herself. Her maid of honor or soon to be husband may accompany her on this shopping excursion for support and to offer their opinions but this is not likely a task that the bride will want to relinquish. Conversely, the bride may not be too particular about how the place cards are written out so this might be an example of a responsibility that can easily be delegated. 

While the bride wouldn’t want to allow another member of the wedding party to choose her wedding dress, she may be interested in delegating other responsibilities related to her dress. For example the bridal shop probably sent the wedding dress out to be steam cleaned subsequent to the bride’s final fitting and it would be acceptable for the bride to entrust a trusted friend or family member with picking up the wedding dress and storing it wherever the bride will be dressing for the wedding. Although the wedding dress may be one of the most important items to the bride, she will likely not mind having someone else run out to retrieve the dress because it gives the bride just one less thing to worry about. 

The bride may wish to work on the design and layout of the reception area but once all of the planning has been done, it is wise to delegate the responsibility of actually setting up the room to another friend or family member. The bride may wish to draw up exact specifications to demonstrate the look that she wants but she will surely be able to trust a family member to follow her directions and prepare the room to her expectations. As the reception area likely has to be set just prior to the reception it is really not feasible for the bride to be completing this task as she will most likely be needed elsewhere for photography sessions. 

Still another aspect of the wedding that it may be wise to delegate is the addressing of thank you card envelopes. Once the guest list has been finalized and the guests have all RSVPed, it can be assumed that you will need a thank you card for each guest who responded affirmatively. The bride is likely to have no particular opinion on how the envelopes should be addressed so this is a perfect task to delegate. This is a menial but time consuming task that doesn’t directly affect the wedding so it is a prime candidate for delegation by the pastor. 

The stresses of planning a wedding can be extremely overwhelming for a bride who has not learned to delegate responsibilities to friends and family members who are likely standing by eager to help in any way possible. While it is understandable that a bride may wish for everything to happen according to her vision, it is also important to realize that although you may want to control every aspect of the wedding and the wedding planning; sometimes it is necessary to delegate responsibilities. Sharing certain responsibilities not only makes the bride feel less overwhelmed but also gives her more available time to focus on the critical aspects of her wedding planning. Today is all about you...this is your day, so enjoy it and make memories! Let others help you out so that you can relax a little and savor the day!
