Whilst you may compromise on the guestlist, whilst you may compromise on the venue, whilst you may compromise on your first song (OK, you hate it, but your partner enjoys it, and you need to let them win at least one thing), if there’s one thing it’s totally reasonable for you not to compromise on, it’s the wedding dress.
Yes, this is your special day and you deserve to look and feel extra special. You’ve probably been dreaming of this moment since you were little, and nothing should stop you from looking your radiant best.
But not compromising on your dress doesn’t mean you have to break the bank. You can still find that dream dress at budget-friendly prices – you just need to know where to look.
… and you’re in the right place.
Here at GoHen, we’ve once again scoured the UK for the best wedding dress shops about to help you secure that breathtaking, showstopping, eye-popping number that will most definitely wow the crowds on your big day.
