Lynch's $3.75 frugal wedding dress
As many brides know, the bridal dress is an important part of a wedding, and it can be a big expense.
However, with the transformation of stimulative consumption into rational consumption, consumers and online shopping platforms have also become shrewd, and frugal bridal dresses are becoming a big consumption trend.
Ohio, 32-year-old bride Gillian Lynch, a year ago, suddenly had an impulsive idea to have a wedding with her boyfriend of 13 years.
"We plan to be life partners and support each other throughout our lives, but marriage doesn't seem necessary," she said.
"I don't know what's changed, but about a year ago, we thought, 'Let's be husbands and wives'.
In Lynch and her boyfriend's view, the wedding is just a ceremony, and what they really want is a partner in later life, so there is no need for a grand wedding, a solemn ceremony.
So Lynch didn't want anything too formal, so she started browsing the second-hand wedding dress shops, ideally a simple white dress.
Four days later, Lynch found a camilla Coelho skirt: a midi suspender dress with an asymmetrical neckline and a bold slit. And the price is also quite cheap, and there are brand new labels.
When Lynch talked about the dress, he excitedly said: "I felt that this dress, like me, crossed the boundaries of the bride and had nothing to do with the wedding."
In fact, Lynch is a talent assistant to a non-profit organization, a working class. Her life was very frugal, so she never considered going to the bridal shop.
But when Lynch had bought all the clothes, she felt a little lost, because she wasn't sure if the clothes she had bought were suitable for the wedding. So she posted a video of herself wearing a dress on social media. Unexpectedly, she quickly garnered more than 2 million views and thousands of viewers who supported her decision to wear this frugal dress.
All these findings were satisfactory
"Hearing the feedback from the fans, it looked like it was made for me, and I did think it shook me,"
"After releasing the social platform, every time I try it on, I fall in love with it even more. I felt really beautiful.
Of course, the wedding on May 13, 2022, went as scheduled, and Lynch excitedly said: The wedding dress is so great that I think I have broken the tradition by interpreting a marriage with $3.75!
Lynch's frugality and Poppico's extravagant willfulness
For his honeymoon in Italy, Poppik converted more than $5,000 (35,000 yuan) worth of Tony Ward's wedding dress into a mini cocktail dress, declaring that he wanted romance, which was part of life.
Popik confessed: I used to try to keep it, but empathy, if one day I have a daughter, she will never want to wear my 35-year-old wedding dress, so I decided to reuse it!
In short, for the bride, the quality of the wedding depends not only on the quality of the goods, but on the person's idea.
