Vintage wedding gowns

Post by Marcychick »

Besides E-Bay does anyone know where to view and buy vintage 80s wedding dresses?

Well Mary-chick if you are in the United Kingdom you might consider that many of our charity shops have dedicated Bridal Departments, that is to say stores or a section thereof that sell second hand wedding dresses I assume from ex-hire shops, disillusioned brides or receiverships. These are user friendly and often without an appointment you can browse lovely wedding dresses, flower girls, bridesmaid dresses etc all reasonably priced,

I suggest you google "Bridal Departments" of Oxfam, CLIC Sargant, Tenovus, RSPCA, Barnados - I frequent a great Tenovus Bridal Store in Bristol UK if I fancy (as I often do) a wedding dress for fun at a reasonable price. If not try Gum tree or E.Bid - a rival to E.Bay.

If you are not in the UK, sorry I cannot help but happy to assist as best I can, by all means PM me
