If you’ve been caught out by a boutique bankruptcy, I might be able to help…

Another bridal boutique has gone bankrupt this week, leaving not only its owner but many local brides distraught.  If you are one of them, or know someone who is, don’t forget that I might be able to help with the last minute panic to find another dress.

Of course, you might have plenty of time to order another dress from a boutique, and the insurance money to compensate you for your loss.  But if you haven’t got much time left, or have been left out of pocket, a second hand wedding dress could be the answer.

All the dresses are in stock, you can even leave with the dress of your dreams the same day that you find it.  And as a second hand or ex sample wedding dress is usually a fraction of the cost of a new one you might be able to replace your dress without breaking the bank.

Alterations can normally be done even at very short notice, and we also have bridesmaid and flower girl dresses in stock too.

So give us a call.  We can’t get your original dress back, but we might even be able to find you something you like more!

Two new dresses coming soon!

I’ve got two new ex-sample dresses coming in the start of next week, and they are so beautiful I couldn’t wait until then to tell you about them!

The first is a stunning Dzage two-piece wedding dress which has a very simple but stunning skirt and a lovely bodice – it has a panel across the bust covered in flowers and beading detail.  Its a dress that oozes sophistication but still allows your feminine side to peak out.veromia-princess-dress

The second dress is the very definition of a fairytale wedding dress – it you looked in the dictionary under ‘fairytale’ you’d probably find a photo of it!  Its a Veromia dress with a fabulous tule skirt and lots of very pretty flower detailing.

The bridal gowns are due in early next week, so if you want to snap them up before anyone gets a chance, give me a call to make an appointment – and i’ve lots of other second hand wedding dresses you could try on too!

Its wedding fayre season – see you at the Hilton Bromsgrove?

Yep, its the time of year when brides gear up for their planning and buying frenzy, which means that their are loads of wedding fayres going on across the country.  Great news for you brides who don’t want to spend days traipsing round the high streets, and great news to for us suppliers as we can meet lots of you in a small space of time – if a little exhausting!

Which means that I’m off for the second week in a row to a fayre – this one is at The Hilton Hotel on the Birmingham Road, Bromsgrove.  Its on Sunday, 13th September from 11 – 3.30, with two fashion shows at around 12.15 and 2.15.

So if you are looking for a fabulous designer wedding dress at a fraction of the original cost, come and see me!  I’ll have around half of my second hand and once worn wedding dresses with me at the fayre and will be showing a few of them in the fashion shows.  You’ll be able to try and once worn dresses on if you want to, and if you fall in love all over again you can even buy one there and then.  Of course, you can always make an appointment to come and try on more of  the second hand wedding dresses in a more relaxed surrounding at my wedding studio in Kidderminster.

Hopefully see you there!

Its big and its green and its a wedding fayre – be there!

Worn Once With Love will be at the Big Green Wedding Fayre this weekend in Liverpool, so come and see us if you are planning on visiting.  We’ll have most of our beautiful second hand and ex sample wedding dresses there for you to try on, and even buy if you find ‘the’ dress!  And we’ll also be putting some of our wedding dresses into the fashion show, so you can see them on real people instead of a mannequin.

So come and say hello, we’d love to see you!  And remember – second hand is not second best, and its green too!
