There are so many amazingly beautiful wedding dresses out there, but not every one’s budget can stretch to the Thousands of pounds that many designers ask for their stunning dresses. For that reason I have done a bit of wedding planner research for you and found 21 wedding dresses under £500 for you.
I have tried to pick a mixture of styles for you, with a mixture of designers from both the bridal world and the high street. I hope you find it useful!
(Also have a look at low cost wedding dresses for weddings abroad for more ideas)
So here we are 21 wedding dresses under £500
First off are 3 gorgeous dresses from Anoushka G (OK I admit one of them isn’t under £500 but it was so fabulous I couldn’t leave it out!!)
Anoushka G ‘Layla strapless’ £350
Anoushka G ‘Lacey metallic Long pleat dress’ £295
Anoushka G ‘Strapless feather Dress’ £595Next onto the High Street for a more traditional wedding collection from BHS/Weddings and also a cute little number from Coast/Weddings
BHS ‘Elisabetta Ivory Bridal Gown’ £495
Coast £150And back to the designers and a more classic dress from Frank Usher Bridal
Frank usher ‘Georgina’ £475Here are 2 stunning dresses from the gorgeous label Biba one more traditional, the other not! I love the sparkle on the 2nd one!
Biba ‘Embellished cross over maxi ‘ £375
Biba ‘Vinatge beaded dress’ £175Two more designers for you one long, one short from JS Collections and Max Azria
JS Collections ‘Rose One Shoulder Empire’ £140
Max Azaria ‘Ivory silk chiffon dress’ £225The next 3 dresses are more traditional and show that traditional wedding dress designers can create full on bridal gown for less. Nicholas Millington bridal collections can be found in Littlewoods, Very and Budget Savy bride.
Nicholas Millington ‘petal skirt wedding dress’ £350
Nicolas Millington ‘Arianna’ £250
Nicholas Millinton ‘Belle’ £300This dress dress is for the braver of brides, and you certainly need a good set if legs to wear this one. It’s by parisian designer Sandro
Sandro ‘white lace dress’ £235I couldn’t put a collection of low cost wedding dresses together without adding in a few from Monsoon they do dresses under £500 so well. Don’t just look in the bridal wear section, the whole dress collections have a great variety for any wedding. The best selection on the high street in my opinion.
Monsoon ‘Starburst’ £150
Monsoon ‘Amira’ £150
Monsoon ‘Octavia’ £170
Monsoon ‘Vismay’ £130Another designer dress for you, a classic and very stylish number from Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti
Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti ‘Silk-satin knee-length dress’ £310last but by no means least 2 gorgeous dresses by Phase Eight both are quite classic but still have a modern twist. I love the last one inparticular, the circular fabric is amazing!
Phase Eight ‘Stephanie’ £250
Phase Eight ‘Circle Tapework Wedding Dress’ £350So there you go I hope you like my selection, and I hope it gave you some inspiration towards your own wedding dress. You really don’t have to spend a fortune on your wedding dress (although if you do I will be covering that in another post coming soon.)
Happy Shopping!!!

Great finds, I am massisvely impressed 21 finds… aces:)
They are all lovely. I do love the Monsoon ones though. It’s one of my favourite shops
You’ve found some real treasures in these dresses! Excellent research skills.
So many are lovely but I think my favourites are ‘Starburst’ from Monsoon (Jenny Packham-esque?) and the Anoushka G feather dress – very Swan Lake.
Might have to pretend I’m wedding dress shopping again so that I can try a few on!
Fab as usual Kelly! Helpful research for Brides to be and other Wedding peeps. I think I lurve most of them but my favourite is…. (drum roll) the Biba ‘Embellished cross over maxi ‘ at £375! Mwah to you xx
I really love the “Layla Strapless” and the Ferretti knee length. I wish that I had the Ferretti dress at my son’s wedding in black.
Just to show that looking fabulous has nothing to do with how much you spend.
I love going to Monsoon and seeing their collection because you never know what amazing dresses they have for sale.
Great finds! Just shows you don’t need to spend a million dollars to feel a million dollars!
i’m adding your blog’s rss feed so that I can see your new posts. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for posting, I like this blog!
Great post. As a bride to be, and a wedding supplier, I am often horrified by the extortionate cost of items simply because they carry the ‘wedding’ tag. This has given me renewed hope! Thanks for sharing.
