Wondering if you know of any consignment/discount stores that specialize in wedding dresses. My daughter will be planning her wedding soon and I’d like to be prepared!

Here are a few places I managed to track down. Bridal isn’t my thing so it’s safe to say I haven’t been to many of these places.
Play It Again Val - 20 Harwood Avenue South, Ajax, Ontario

    I have a dress that has never been worn. I’m wondering if you know what I can do with it?

    Hey Tania

    I would try to sell it myself first. Craigslist is a good option. If that didn’t pan out, I would try one of the above consignment shops.

    It’s also a good idea to let people know that you have one for sale, word of mouth can do wonders

    If you have a website or blog, post about it. You never know.
