When I searched for bridal gowns, I had the hardest time finding a list of salons in the Washington DC area that sold gowns under $2000, preferably under $1500 (I just couldn’t live with myself if I paid more than this for a dress that I wear only once). After much research I finally came up with my own list and would love to share it with you. The following are a list of salons that have reasonably priced gowns:
- Alfred Angelo in Springfield, VA. I ended up buying my gown here.
- Katherine’s Bridal in Alexandria. This had my second choice dress. Beware: they won’t let you take pictures which was important to me since I wanted to see how I looked in photos with the dress on.
- Ellie’s Bridal Boutique in Alexandria, VA
- Moni’s Bridal Boutique in Manassas, VA.
- Jeanette’s Bridal in Manassas, VA.
- David’s Bridal in Rockville, MD.
- The Bridal Boutique in Columbia, MD. Not great for beach brides since most of their dresses are pretty heavy. However, a large selection of gowns.
- Bobbie’s Bridal in Fairfax, VA. – I didn’t find anything here for me, but other ladies may find dresses here.
- Rosalin’s Bridal in Falls Church, VA.
- Distinctive Designs Bridal in Rockville, MD. - This one was far for me but it was my favorite of all the salons. Absolutely great salon. I love the layout. Beware: they won’t let you take pictures which was important to me since I wanted to see how I looked in photos with the dress on.
- Pattrapon Bridal in Kensington, MD. Cute neighborhood especially if you love antiques.
