Pick a color that is widely available. Certain colors may be more available during certain seasons. If the wedding is being held during December, red and green may be easier to find and less expensive than shades associated with spring, such as lavender and pale yellow.
Research simpler designs. A plain evening dress with few details and a simple shape can be much cheaper than a more elaborate choice. Look for styles that have fewer parts and draw on standard dress shapes such as an A-line or drop waist. A dress with less detail will be less expensive.
Buy dresses on line. On line retailers often have a selection of evenings dresses in wide variety of colors and fabrics. Purchasing dresses on line can be much cheaper than buying them at a bridal salon. If you do, look carefully at the site before buying anything. Make sure that the web site is legitimate.
Purchase dresses at thrift stores and consignment stores. Some thrift stores receive merchandise from high-end stores. Others get gowns and other higher-priced items when someone moves or passes away.
