The Best Affordable Wedding Dresses Under $1000
When you consider that the average duration of a wedding ceremony is roughly half an hour and the reception comes out to about four, it makes complete sense that not all brides are interested in spending their life’s savings or, say, the price of a car, on a dress they will likely wear for four and a half hours plus pictures. If you happen to be one of these ladies (like an office friend of mine who actually requested this story!) and have impending nuptials on the horizon, then you’ll be quite pleased with today’s roundup of wedding dresses under $1000. From off-the-shoulder to long-sleeve and classic strapless styles, we’ve got something for every bride and budget!

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here atBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing , and she is currently Editor-at-Large. Upon joining, she was a senior about to graduate from business school at USC. Fast-forward to 2025, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was just starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content and her Trust Me—Buy This newsletter. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to neutral, classic pieces but will always make an exception for something colorful or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a party is dressing up for one. On her downtime, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
