End-of-Year bridal Gown Sales??

There was a video clip on a TV show about end of year bridal gown sales, and how during October/November/December, the current years inventory often goes on sale to make room for the incoming year's inventory. Because of this, I have been waiting to go dress shopping in hopes to save some $$ with my already tight budget.

However, with that time creeping up on us, I have started wondering a couple things.. do you all think that these sales would be in regards to "off the rack" dresses only?? Maybe trunk sales? Or might it be like David's Bridal's sales where just a handful of rack dresses go on sale. I am a plus size gal, and these types of things don't typically work for me, I am probably going to need to order my dress, so if this is the case, I might as well just start shopping now!

What do you all think? Does anyone have experience with this? Is there truly a "best time" of year to buy wedding gowns?

  • Davids bridal has a couple of really pretty dresses on sale now for under 400 and some for under 200 and even though some of them are plain it gives you the option to personalize it however you want it
  • Thanks for the advice! I haven't had much luck with davids bridal so I am looming to branch out. Is this pearls place a place you can order from a distance? I am from CA so if I tried on a dress at a store near me, I could order it through them for a better deal? If so, that sounds like a great option! So far I have been unable to find end of year sale info, except for off the rack sales!
  • So you ladies can actually vouch for this Pearls Place location? I definitely won't purchase from an online store because I've heard way too many horror stories, like getting an knock off dress instead of the real deal.. but if lots of people are saying the Pearls Place is real, then I should really check into that!! Thanks for the advice :)

    Wish I could find some info on the end of year sales though! :)
