Buying the perfect wedding dress in Houston doesn’t have to come with an expensive price tag. There are places in Houston to get the wedding dress of your dreams on a budget! I’m sharing my top 5 places to buy a discounted wedding dress in the Houston area.

My absolute favorite television show on Friday nights after a long week is Say Yes to the Dress. Even though I have been married for over 5 years and am no longer planning my own wedding, it’s still great to see brides enter into Kleinfeld Bridal with dreams of finding that perfect dress. For me, dress shopping looked a lot different, visiting different boutiques in the Houston area, trying to find the perfect gown at the right price.

I was determined to leave no stone unturned and that included exploring the city for consignment, resale, and sample wedding dresses. There are a multitude of ways to find a bargain wedding dress, including many online retailers. But I wanted to focus on brick and mortar stores around the state where brides can find deals on sample and/or gently used wedding dresses.

You may have read our other posts on where to find a wedding dress on a budget, or where to buy a sample, consignment, or used wedding dress, but in this post we are focusing specifically on the Houston area. The locations below are my top 5 recommendations for where to get a wedding dress on a budget in Houston. Even if you don’t live in the area, many of these shops actually sell their dresses online, too! This list will help you find your dream wedding dress at an amazing price, without sacrificing quality. Is there another affordable wedding dress shop in Houston that you think should be on this list? Let us know in the comments!

Houston Affordable Wedding Dress Shop #3: Cheeky Vintage | 2134 Richmond Ave. Houston, TX 77098 | (713) 533-1121

Cheeky Vintage is more of a vintage dress and accessory shop, than a specialized wedding boutique, but that doesn’t take away from its awesomeness. We listed it here because they occasionally have wedding dresses and the style we’ve witnessed is impeccable. Although they update their Facebook page with new arrivals, you can browse and shop their inventory from the shop website. We searched for “wedding” and came up with several interesting listings. Because Cheeky Vintage receives new arrivals almost every day, you’ll want to keep checking back or follow them on social media to keep your eye out for your dream wedding dress. And remember, if it’s not exactly your size, you can always take it to a seamstress. This is a great way to find an affordable wedding dress in Houston.
