I saved thousands when I found my dream wedding dress in a charity shop for £20
MANY brides fork out a small fortune on their dream wedding dress.
But a savvy woman has revealed how she spotted her ideal gown for just £20 from a charity shop - and it fit perfectly.
Claire Louise, from Leicestershire, who is getting married next year, said she “fell in love” with the “bargain dress” the moment she laid eyes on it.
Speaking to Fabulous, she said: “The dress was a charity shop find.
“I saw it a couple of weeks ago and fell in love but hadn't got my bankcard.
“When I went back it had been marked down half price. From £40 to £20.
“It’s absolutely immaculate too.
“I had been looking at the exact same styles online.”
Mum-of-two Claire works at home as a full time video game streamer, while her fiance works as a forklift driver.
