Not feeling the traditional white wedding gown? Does the thought of a wedding dress from David’s Bridal gives you hives? Well we’ve got you covered, with our picks for six non-traditional wedding dresses, all for under $50. While laws might restrict certain types of marriage, fortunately, there’s no restriction on the type of wedding dress you choose to wear on your big day. We LOVE the fact that many people are choosing to diversify when it comes to wedding dresses (you have to admit that most of the dresses are starting to look the same).

Can you say HATED IT!!! SERIOUSLY – these are supposed to be alternatives to wearing a wedding dress?!! I’m ALL for being different (to a degree), but I wouldn’t be caught dead in one of these get-ups…..well maybe on Halloween!! Come on – you couldn’t have done better than 6 ‘outfits’ that scream “look what I made in home ec” or “look what I found at the flea market”?!!
@ThatChick think you can do better for under $50? Send us your post and if it’s good we’ll link to it on the facebook page
I’ve accepted your challenge and have a few looks I’d like to share!Should I e-mail them to you?
fine. They need to be six of them- not just one or two with links and prices. email them to blogs@simplygoodmedia.com
HAhaha….Go ThatChick!!
