chaircover: I own a bridal shop and we sell and lease gowns. Over the years a lot more people are leasing wedding gowns. First of all people used to do it hush hush but now people are beginning to be more realistic about their spending and dont feel embarrassed about hiring a wedding gown.

Ive always said that there is no point over spending on a wedding and then having to live from hand to mouth afterwards.

JeSoul: Personally, I wouldn't. Solely because of the 'mental' factor, I wouldn't like to wear something someone else already wore - just my personal thing, it holds sentimental value though I may not wear it again (we're playing with the idea of a 10yr anniv renewal wearing the same dress/suit ).

I do agree on not blowing so much money on an item you'll only use once, very reasonable approach. Women should know that with a little shopping around, and taking their focus of "designer labels" you can find gorgeous dresses at prices that won't break the bank.

No 1, are you planning to eliminate eba, fufu, amala etc from your diet for the next 10 years?

No 2, if you had between the option (based on financial constraints) of leasing your perfect, absolutely stunning bridal gown or buying an "e-go-do" bridal gown, which one would you go for?

chaircover: Saga what in earth made you click on this link? Dont let TV catch you here ooooooooo!!!

I still think that all this sagafrontin is just an alter ego and the real saga is as we speak busy in the kitchen snapping egusi seeds and picking the stones out of beans.

JeSoul:

Chai...e go hard oh... but I think I would still lean towards the latter. It is very possible to find great-looking dresses at cheap prices - especially from chinese outlets. Two of my friends bought theirs off a website that makes imitations of popular styles starting as low as ~$200 bucks and they turned out great.

mallorca: my fiance must read this comment

buck wild: My cousin was about to get married,he set aside some money to buy the wedding gown.

When it was time to get it,his fiancee insisted that they lease it instead of buying it,stating that its not rational to spend so much on something that she is going to wear for about 6 to 8 hours.

They should use the money for something instead.i was really surprised,i was like do such ladies still exist?

Nairalanders what do you think?

Sagamite: As long as you are comfortable with Givenchy, YSL, Ralph Lauren tag not being on it, then I believe you.
