I found a $10 Thrifted Wedding Dress

[@Sheila-hn3zt]

There is a phenomenon that happens with brides....they get SO caught up in the idea of (the fantasy of) perfection that they end up unnecessarily spending thousands on a dress when there often is not much difference. Good for you!

[@terri4657]

The second dress is the winner, you looked absolutely stunning.

[@Fifa11Trickz]

100% agree! No need to buy 1000$ dress. The second one was so beautiful!

[@dorindanardelli4053]

Love the 2nd dress stunning but i think i would dry clean it

[@jillbaker4405]

Do not put it in your tub....it needs a professional cleaning

[@hildahighlander2586]

The second dress is stunning on you! It looks like it was made just for you. I love a ruched ivory wedding dress very similar to this, however I only have a picture. I don't have any idea the cost, or even what the back looks like. This will be amazing for your wedding day!

[@kimrichards8439]

Oh Jordan-you look beautiful in the 2nd dress! Love that you thrifted it cuz a new dress is such a waste of money for one day. The money your saving on the dress can be used for other things. Way to go GIRL!!!❤

[@justjordanthings]

Yes! so many dresses cost thousands of dollars and then you never wear it again. I love the idea of giving a perfectly good dress another chance in the sun

[@sallypetrea4559]

You should be thrilled… looks soo good on you straight outa the box- - just imagine what it would look like once it’s professionally cleaned and steamed… I think you SCORED ❣️

[@Thomasina-m8c]

U look beautiful in both dresses. I am watching say yes to the dress and all the waste of expensive thousands of dollars 💵 could go to a vacation back to Ireland or anything u and your husband to be, needed...both of those dresses look two to five thousand dollars and such great 😃 prices u got ...the ivory soap does work u can use it on cotton and polyester it does wonders. Lv u

[@judithburke1539]

You might want to ask the dry cleaners if they know of anyone who can make an insert to place under the laces.

[@dawnbrown9898]

Jordan, Your video just popped up on my KZbin. I guess because I watch your mom? That dress looks Like it was made just for you! Wow.❤

[@ellenhaben1217]

Smart girl you look gorgeous in the dress! 41 years ago I took my older sisters$1200 dress and had it altered to fit me. From size 12 to 8. I had the long sleeves depuffed and made the long train into a demi train. It cost me $100. I saved my parents $1100 !!!❤🎉👍👏

[@Nance54]

I was a Bridal Consultant for 12 years and also am a tailor. First, the Ivory soap does indeed work, need to rub it with a damp soft cloth. Second, you shouldn't be trying to clean it while wearing it and sitting on the floor, just trying to help. Have a wonderful wedding day! By the way, I agree the second dress is a good choice.

[@merrymaid2890]

No 2 is stunning on you! 😱 What a steal!

[@judymelchert3966]

That 2nd dress looks like it was already tailored for you, its lovely

[@christinebroderick70]

I’ve had a bridal wear obsession for 45 years. I go to the trunk shows, watch the new styles in Barcelona, and simply study each designer and trends. THIS gown grew on you for you! You are STUNNING! Great choice!

[@Carmella-ki8gy]

Jordan: I am so impressed with your commitment to spending your money wisely for a beautiful wedding!!! Good luck and God Bless!!!

[@yukokaystevenson4438]

Gurl! The 2nd dress was perfect and gorgeous on your body! You will be a beautiful bride, and I can't wait 😊

[@SandraU_1]

You looked absolutely stunning in the 2nd dress! It really suited you beautifully.😊

[@dorisbern6539]

That dress the second one is absolutely gorgeous. It was brilliant how you cleaned it good for you, sweetie.❤❤❤❤❤

[@prairiestonecollectiblescu835]

The 1st dress was simple and elegant, the 2nd dress was WOW....with the necklace, earrings, veil....perfect for you!

[@veronicaflores-mann2690]

You look beautiful in both but my favorite is the 2nd dress 👗 so elegant. Smart way to go 🎉

[@mrs.brunke443]

The first dress was very pretty. The second dress is stunning. It was made for you. The draping over the hip is so reminiscent of the way dresses draped in the 1890s and early 1900s. It lends a touch of bygone elegance without being an antique replica. You are a wise bride to see that you can have a beautiful dress without vastly overspending. And you are helping to be a sustainable citizen! My wedding was somewhat bohemian and my husband wore a very handsome handmade vest from Nepal and I wore a white cotton sundress with red trim that I borrowed from an acquaintance. I gave the dress back and have not seen it in 47 years. I've still got the husband though so it's all good!

[@justjordanthings]

having the husband still is what makes it all worth it in the end

[@ladydutches7717]

You know Jordan you sitting down and cleaning your dress is actually very beautiful picture watching you get excited plus the fact that you only paid 30.00 dollars for it ,your going look stunning on your special day. ❤❤❤

[@francesfehrman741]

I paid $25.00 thrift store. Long vail. No stains no tears. It's just what I was looking for. Loved it

[@Loulouchewy]

The second dress colour and style look fabulous on you! What a bargain. Congratulations on getting married :)

[@susanhagen9505]

That gown fits you so beautifully

[@nansea6318]

Only Jordan would sit on the floor and clean a Wedding Dress. You always make me smile 😊. I wonder if a very pale pink or blue or green insert would look good in the back. My wedding dress cost $100.00 in 1970 at a bougie dress shop. In 1998 my young grandaughter wore it as an Halloween costume. She made into a scary bride look. Guess that was my way of recycling.

[@marwatson7408]

The second dress looked absolutely beautiful on you.👰💐

[@jackeeschwartz7647]

The 2nd dress is absolutely stunning!

[@justjordanthings]

Right! I am so pleasantly surprised

[@JodieLeith160]

I love the 2nd dress! God Bless your and your future husband. ❤

[@justjordanthings]

❤❤❤❤❤ Thank you

[@JodieLeith160]

Your very welcome

[@jacqueline8559]

Dress 2 is fabulous! So very beautiful on you. No contest, its got to be THE ONE ❤

[@RoseMiller-xh5ei]

Yes, yes, yes on the second dress! Smart young lady to thrift. Don't understand how some brides-to-be think spending thousands of $ when it's only for one day.

[@kathyallen6238]

So glad you found a reasonably priced dress; it was gorgeous on you. PLEASE don't wait until the night before to steam it in case something goes wrong! I think getting it cleaned professionally would be good! I got my wedding dress (for my second wedding) at SEARS (?!?) on a clearance rack for $90 in '88! I suspected it might have been worn for a wedding or even a prom with underarm shields as there was only one dirt smudge on it...but the price was SO right. When my daughter got married, I found a $30 dress with jacket in a consignment store!

[@sherryblake8352]

That second dress You look so pretty in that dress. Yes! Definitely get a 2nd hand dress.

[@jnelsimpson1190]

You couild even have the second dress Dry Cleaned and it would be pressed and perfect for your wedding!

[@susanstancliff2937]

Yes the second dress is beautiful and perfect! Amazing how you cleaned it! I would check all the seams etc and then have it cleaned professionally! If you shop for a wedding veil I would take a piece of fabric the color of your dress with me to see if the color matches…. in indoor light and outside in the sun, daylight! Same for shoe shopping! Congratulations! I know you are so happy! Your husband to be is wonderful too! God bless both of you!🙏❤️🕊️

[@justjordanthings]

Ooo this is a good tip! Thank you

[@nofaves]

We got so lucky when my daughter was dress shopping. There was a thrift store in a nearby town that specialized in formal gowns. The entire basement was racks and racks of gowns, from prom to bridesmaid to mother of the bride to bridal. My daughter is so tiny that we didn't think we'd find one, but we did! She bought forest green ribbon to close up the corset back, and that pop of color was stunning.

[@justjordanthings]

wow that sounds amazing! I love the forest green color

[@donnachace-larson4795]

That second dress is an absolute winner! You look lovely! Best wishes to you and your groom on your wedding.

[@lindacombs7424]

The second dress is beautiful and I love how Dozer is giving his options. 🐈‍⬛️

[@justjordanthings]

Always! I couldn't wear a non dozer approved dress lol

[@cindytaylor8530]

Please don't put Satin or silk in the bathtub. Just get it dry cleaned. It may only cost 100 to 150 to get it dry cleaned and have beading reattached. Love the 2nd one and you can get a ivory panel from a bridal shop for the back.

[@justjordanthings]

Good call Good call. I think getting it dry cleaned will be the easiest solution since I love it so much

[@swatson1190]

You can put satin and silk in the bath tub. Hand washing is the only way to clean them. I have done it many times and it doesn't hurt the fabric at all. Just be sure to line dry no dryer.

[@mylois62]

Hobbybobbins cleans wedding dresses on her channel.

[@sandravasquez7628]

There is nothing wrong at all with washing satin or silk in the tub. I had a satin dress that I used for YEARS for a weekly activity and my grandmother would hand wash it in cold water with soft soap and it would come out radiant every time. We would then line dry it and iron the pleats and it was good as new. Having that experience I decided to wash my own wedding gown before and after using it (A friend loaned me her dress as a wedding present) and when I returned it to her she was amazed because it was better looking than when she gave it to me. I managed to restore it to it's original shade of white because it had become off-white because of the storing. I algo repaired all the loose threads and some missing beads. Sometimes "only 100 to 150$" can be a lot of money for some of us... no need to waste money if you can do the job yourself well.

[@dianeblake2527]

Get it professionally cleaned to bring it back to its former glory!! It is gorgeous.

[@swatson1190]

Dry cleaning is harder on the fabric and your body. Very harsh chemicals.

[@jacqueline8559]

​@@swatson1190 She needs the advice of a professional Wedding gown cleaner. It would be stupid to find her dream wedding dress, for that price, then take the advice of every stranger on the Internet.

[@sandymilton2508]

Way to go Jordan! The second dress looks beautiful!

[@sharonjackson1445]

That second dress was it girl. Love the shape of It. Good to go.😊

[@traceyhacking7109]

The second dress is PERFECT, you look great.

[@bethb7965]

Love the 2nd gown‼️I bought my wedding gown at Penney's outlet for $130 in 1993. My bouquet was a little more than that.

[@elizabethcrooms2006]

You look MARVELOUS in the 2nd dress! It's a joy watching this journey with you, thanks for letting us come along with you!

[@sherryturner1102]

Your mom will be so proud. It looks beautiful and like it was made for you.

[@ClaudiaMartinez-iw1je]

The second dress is beautiful. I can wait to see you on your wedding day. One thing I almost forgot to day should try your dress with the shoes you are going to wear on your wedding.

[@justjordanthings]

Yes! I need to find my shoes so I can try them on together

[@debbylawler4309]

Definitely the 2nd dress!!! You are stunning in it!!! Girl, you got it going on!!!👍❤️🥰

[@cherylcook6284]

Even new dresses need alterations and pro-cleaning. Both dresses are beautiful! I like #2 best!

[@QuirkyGirl10]

I would most definitely buy and wear a thrifted gown, esp if it looked as good as that second one on you. What a steal!

[@joanneyoung2716]

Second dress is wonderful! I recommend a necklace on the day, perhaps pearls, or a sparkly necklace and earrings and bracelet that compliments the necklace. Congratulations and may you have a wonderful day and many to come!

[@Bondobaby59]

What a beautiful dress! I would absolutely wear a thrifted wedding dress! How exciting!

[@cherylvaverka9042]

Loved loved the second dress. I think it is very smart going second hand. Brides spend thousands and wear it once. That dress is very classy and timeless. You will love it in your pictures 25 years from now. I would not dry clean it. Google how to clean the kind of fabric it is. I’d use a hand held steamer after it is clean. The length was perfect. I can see it with a beautiful veil. I hope we see bits of your wedding on your channel. I’m excited for you. Lots of luck getting everything. I don’t know if you’re having a sit down meal for the reception. I have see people mix and match China. It was beautiful.

[@judithburke1539]

You might be able to find a person who does alterations who can make an insert to go under the lacing in the back using some of the extra fabric from the train, so it will be a perfect match with the dress.

[@Lovestodance22]

I borrowed a 50's dress for my 70s wedding. It was beautiful and fit like it was custom made for me, I believe when you put it out there things come to you. Keep making lists before you go to thrift stores. I am 68 and have always felt the universe provides when you ask. Good luck in all you do. I just subscribed and will be enjoying your fun.

[@gailsernaPsychicMedium]

Great tips thanks. Loved your dresses. Enjoy your special day.

[@dittohead7044]

Your mother must be beside herself!!!! I remember when you first started modeling. So beautiful

Beautiful dress! You look amazing. Thrifting for your wedding is the smartest way to go.

[@justjordanthings]

There are so many options out there!

[@juanitagibbs2100]

I used I plan. Baking soda two cups Dawn blue I soaked the dress in ex. Large ice chest, bath tub would do. I put a clothes line up put the dress over it and hosed it down. It had wine dirt.so many stains came out like new. You are so smart good luck. 👍

[@hatarismom]

Looks fantastic. I got married in September last year in 3 days from proposal to wedding…wish I could have had a wedding dress, but I’m lucky to have found the best man in the world….good luck!

[@aem3313]

I hope you get it cleaned and wear it for your wedding it’s beautiful and so are you!!!!! Congrats on saving on the wedding

[@bronxtucker7941]

Jordan. Wonderful dresses the 2nd seemed so perfect I love how excited and happy you are. And enjoyed how you were cleaning it and explained that even with professional cleaning it will be less than buying brand new. And I wanted to add when your taking pictures you sitting down with the dress around you I think will be a sweet one because just seeing you sitting with it now was such a beautiful sweet moment in time.

[@flygirl6108]

Just stumbled onto your video. The dress looks like it was made for you. Perfect fit. Love the color on you and you and the dress are beautiful!!

[@patlavender8615]

For some reason, watching your excitement while cleaning that second dress, was awesome! The gown is gorgeous on you. Your wedding planning is so much fun to watch. 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@brennagreenglasspeacock]

Stunning!! Glad the stains came out so easily too.

[@cindymichaud7111]

Good for You! A thrifted dress is YOUR DRESS! It's perfect for you. As for the back panel, yes a piece of fabric inset may work, or it may bunch up, so secure it well. I'd think about the petticoat you'll need for the skirt to take the right shape. In that case, a slip may have the right backing on it (strapless of course!). You look phenomenal. Oh, what about a glitzy belt to bring more bling, if you want more. Best wishes on your wedding! This is the first time I've seen your channel and I love weddings! Have a blessed day! 💖 ✝👰🤵✨🎁💍🎩🔔🔔🎹🎵🍰🥂PS when I tried to get my wedding dress cleaned I was told that the sparkles and sequins would melt, so if you go that route, beware!

[@justjordanthings]

These are all great ideas! Thank you

[@esmeraldagreen1992]

A coworker found a very nice 1990s dress in an antique mall, she had it cleaned and altered (puffy sleeves reworked, waistline reworked and train shortened and some other minor stuff).I went to the wedding, the dress was stunning and she spent about 300 dollars.

[@justjordanthings]

incredibly! I love giving life back to clothes

[@maxinejordan9609]

You look stunning in the dress you cleaned. Would love to see your wedding photos. Blessings on your marriage.

[@Brandi62]

The second dress is gorgeous! After just having my daughter's wedding, I wish she would have tried thrifting a dress. It would have saved soooo much. I have some cleaner called Dryell. If they still make it, it is great for getting stains out of dry clean only clothes. There is also another cleaning item for dry cleaning. It is cloth stuffed with some kind of powder. Good luck with your dress and congratulations!

[@Momofredheads2]

So I had a similar wedding dress. It did come with a slip for under the dress. The slip was an a-line full slip. It was to help keep the dress full to show of the dress. Just a thought. 🖤

Oh Wow Jordan ❤don’t wast a cent on another dress 💕that dress is just perfection and looks absolutely stunning on you🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

Carbona stain removers work the best they come in little yellow bottles and each remover is specific to the stain.

[@Green.heron24]

Wow, the title of your video drew me in. Excellent shopping. Both were good but the 2nd one, the color and fit are perfect. Just treat yourself with a professional clean and press for the big day. You have a fun personality and best wishes for a beautiful wedding. I really love 2nd dress !!👰

omg u look beautiful this dress is a winner girl. good luck god bless.

[@gloriapotter2920]

Jordan, Love love the second dress!

[@rosehanchar4162]

I think that you would be able to wash the 2nd one in the bath tub with a mild soap now that you have spot cleaned it. It seems to be the standard wedding fabric for wedding gowns unless it is real silk. Then I would take it to a dry cleaner. I had made my daughter's wedding gown from the standard satin wedding material. During the wedding, she had stained it with wine and the usual dirt on the hem and we knew that it would have to be cleaned. So because I had some leftover scraps, I washed the material in water to see how it would react. I didn't see any material changes to the scrap, so into the bathtub went the gown. The wine stain and the dirt came out with a light scrubbing of soap (Ivory) with a soft brush and then I just swished the gown around in the lukewarm water with Tide detergent in it. I then hung it up on a sturdy hangar ( the dresses are very heavy to begin with) in the bathtub to drip dry after I rinsed it. It came out beautifully. For those who might be wondering, the materials cost app. $300 +70 hours of sewing and beading @15.00/hr.

[@rumbleinthekitchen_Amy]

My wedding dress from almost 20 years ago was Mori Lee gown that I bought as a sample. Stunning & less than half the cost of the exact same dress if I ordered it instead of using a dress other people had tried on. (Yes, there was someone else there refusing the sample idea because others had worn it.)

[@cindytalwar8438]

The second dress is just gorgeous on you…it looks like it was made for you! 💐🙌🏻❤️

[@kimresnick7052]

I got my dress for $20 because it had a pen mark down the front. Cleaners got it out and I saved a ton of money! You look lovely in both but the second is the best.

[@shawnmcpeak6184]

The second dress is Great. If you get it cleaned do it as soon as possible. Sometimes there are issues with cleaners.

My daughter wore my 31 year old wedding dress for her wedding in 2019. It is your typical 1980s dress. She had it altered and revamped into her taste, corset back, narrowed sleeves. We cleaned it with oxy clean and a hose in the back yard. Then hung it in the sun, all the 31 year old stain came out. The sun bleached them all out. She looked gorgeous on her day. You don't have to spend a fortune to look great.😊

[@emilydavidson275]

They are both beautiful. Lovely on you. Good luck with the stains. Very lucky!
