Wedding Forum - Price negotiable?...

The price is always negotiable especially as you're looking to buy accessories from the shop as well. It's worth a try. You could always try getting a sample dress as well.

I email the shop I got my dress from saying it in this other shop for x price knocked a little more off ( shop had a 10% sale on for the month didnt tell them that) and said but I really liked they shop and how welcome I felt and it much closer to me and what deal could they do for me I got nearly £400 off the price of non sale price of dress in the other shop and £200 chaper then they sale pric, and they shop I got my dress didn't stock the sample of the dress I wanted but is a stockist for the designer so they could order it and still done a deal for me. I alway say if you done ask you don't get and there no harm asking as they price are price up high so they can knock money of and they still making profit and you think your getting a good deal.

It's always worth a try. You've nothing to loose.

as my dress comes with a veil attatched.... i didnt really need any other accessories from the shop, and to be honest i never even thought of asking for discount off.. but the lady was lovely enough and just knocked 10% off saving us over £200

to be honest these shops are making nearly 100% profit from the dresses anyway, so you got nothing loose

go for it and ask, all they can say is no

Thanks ladies, I think I might try asking then.....Thats if I can convince my Mum it is the 'one'! (See my new posts!) x

Just ask them, what's the best price you can do on the dress and then when they say whatever they say say ok and what about throwing the veil in for free? U don't ask u don't get :) good luck x

You can always get a little bit knocked off I think. Mine was £1000 but I got it down to £700 xx

Wow that is a good discount Sarah, I strongly believe that if you dont ask you dont get x

Well, to update you all.....I went back today and tried on the dress again, and loved it....However, my Mum wasnt convinced... Which is fine, she's allowed her opinion....However I tried an even more expensive dress on, and we both agreed it was lovely. So now, heres me wanting an even more expensive dress and a £225 veil.... Typical me! (I promise I wasnt even looking at labels!). I asked for her best price, and she said its the one on the label (£1350). That sucked completely.... However, she did say maybe she could do something on the price of the accessories (I only had a veil and have my own shoes already) so I presume she might give me something off the veil. I didnt order it then and there as I have an appt booked somewhere a bit cheaper this Sat. I kind of hoped this might make her worry I'd buy something else, but she stuck fast on the price. She wont sell the sample and I cannot find anyone else locally who stocks the designer. Any more ideas ladies... (Anything except tears! I dont do tears!!!) x

I got the shop owner today and it was a second viewing....so not really thinking I am going to get much more TBH! The sister of one of my BM used to work there so we'll try and pull that one out the bag on Sat, but not sure its going to work! x
