This might surprise you, but you don't have to be disappointed in the search for an affordable, fuss-free wedding dress for your special day when there are endless budget-friendly options online, secondhand gowns, and even dresses you can buy straight off-the-rack to choose from. One thing's certain is that is we've come a long way since the hassle of only having custom-made and traditional wedding dresses as options.
If the thought of wearing extravagant beading detail, multiple layers of tulle, or intricate lace on your special day just isn't your thing, you may want to opt for something a little low key. Regardless of what your budget is for your wedding, an affordable dress isn't such a bad idea. So we've done the rounds and found the best six dresses we would purchase, all coming in at less than $200.
