Chop here, Not there: Your Quince Gown.

 You’re all game to budget most details of your quinceañera. But now your parents are giving you a budget for your quince gown and that idea has you yanking your hair out! But not all hope should be lost. There are ways to get the quince dress of your dreams while staying within your allotted budget. Here to help you through the darkest of crises are a couple of “out of the box ideas” for the most gorgeous quince gown at the perfect price tag.

What’s in a name?
When it comes to your quince gown, the first step to staying under your budget is staying away from a label dress. Although you’re dying to have your own gown constructed solely for you by a renowned fashion designer, your budget simply does not allow for it. But that doesn’t mean that you can’t have a similar couture design. Simply take an image of your desired but out-of-budget gown to your seamstress, and have her construct a similar style. With her expertise and your own creative ideas, you’re sure to design a dress worthy of international runways without going a dime over your budget.

Purchase a Quince bundle
Similar to purchasing a new XBox bundle with various video games and an extra gamer control, you can also purchase your quince gown in a bundle. If you visit a boutique where they also sell quince floral bouquets, tiaras, dama dresses and tuxedos, then you can suggest to the retailer that they give you a nice discount if you purchase many items at their location. Simply decide what items you like from that particular shop, tally up the cost, and ask the retailer to grant you a bargain. Although you may not find everything that you were looking for in once specific place, you can, however, walk away with a hefty deal on the items that you did find.

Bargain Shop
You can find the quince gown of your dreams where you least expect it, even at a discount market. When retailers need to make space for new inventory, for example, they markdown some designs and host discount days where customers can go into their inventory and look through their collection of discounted gowns. Bargain shopping is a guaranteed way of striking a deal since it requires no bargaining on your end and dresses are already marked down to their lowest price.
