Getting the perfect dress at a reasonable price is not the easiest thing. Brides tend to spend thousands of rands on either having the perfect dress made or hiring it. If you’re running tight on budget or would just like to save on your overall look, the Wedding Etc style team found the perfect ‘I do’ look for just under R3000.

When choosing a store-bought dress, here are a couple of things to look out for:

– How the dress flatters your body type.
– The seam finishes and quality of the material.
– A style that you can also repurpose by wearing it to an evening out or any formal occasion.

Next up, choose an earring based on the hairstyle you will be having. A slightly larger earring suits an updo perfectly. A mix of silver and gold is also a huge trend in jewellery right now, as it will go with almost anything.

A neutral heel is always a perfect solution when deciding on the colour of a shoe. Not only is it a good staple shoe to have in your closest, but you can wear it with almost any look, whether it’s casual or more dressed up.
