Our mission to find the best in affordable bridal continues with this month’s top 5 wedding dresses under $1000. From sassy bridal separates to bohemian lace gowns and handcrafted designs from our favourite Etsy sellers, April’s roundup has all bases covered.

We can’t get enough of the upcoming bridal collection from Needle & Thread (see it here) but as it’s not available to shop until next month, we’ve included our fave separates ensemble from the current range – a full tulle maxi skirt paired with a beautifully detailed chiffon top.

Price $437 (top) / $218 (skirt) / From Net-A-Porter (top / skirt)
