Renting a wedding dress is an option that is well-worth considering for your big day. You should consider the following pros and cons as you make your decision:
Pros:
– Wearing the dress of your dreams for your wedding day may be more of a financial possibility if you rent rather than buy.
– By saving money on your dress, you’ll be able to spend more money on other important aspects of your wedding i.e., the photographer, videographer, entertainment, etc.
– You won’t have a big dress taking up space in your closet.
– You’re much more likely to pull out photos to reminisce about your wedding day than you are to pull out a dress.
– Let’s face it; your daughter is not going to want to wear your wedding dress on her wedding day. Fashion and trends are continually changing and dresses quickly become outdated. After all, you probably don’t want to wear your mother’s dress, right?
– This really is a dress that you will only wear once. And while it will be for the most important day of your life, a rented dress will make you feel just as beautiful as a purchased dress.
Cons:
– The style of dress that you want may not be available as a rental.
– You won’t have the dress to pull out later as you remember your wedding day.
– Other brides will be able to wear the same dress you wore.
