The hassle of getting your wedding dress can become very stressful, and while it is nice to have the freedom of customising your gown for the big day, it can get too hectic or too expensive. We surely love top-name designers such as Iman Saab, Samo Hagras, Maison Yeya, and more. Sometimes, however, one’s looking for a bit more reasonably-priced wedding dress. So, if you’re looking for something ready-to-wear and not too highly priced, this is the list to check.
One of Cairo’s biggest shops for wedding dresses, you can find it at 18 Abdullah Draz Street in Heliopolis. They have bridal dresses on offer for rent or sale. Rent ranges from 5,000 up to 35,000 EGP, and sale ranges from 52,000 to 100,000 EGP.

Shop from their collection of designer dresses whether for sale or rent. You can find Bloom Bridal Boutique in El-Sayed El-Merghany Street, Heliopolis.
When in doubt, preowned is always an option…
When you’re on a tighter budget, it’s smarter to go for preowned dresses to save a few bucks for more important things on your list. Some of the best picks for that approach include La Reina, an e-commerce platform with hundreds of dresses and gowns to pick from. They also have a veiled collection, and can even drop off up to 5 dresses at your doorstep so you can try them all, and only pay for the one you pick.
The Wardrobe Egypt also offers a huge collection of wedding dresses that have been “preloved only once”, as they put it. Just like La Reina, you can buy or rent any of the dresses they have on offer.
Finally, you can shop at PreOwned Dresses, they connect buyers and sellers of used wedding dresses and other special gowns. Their price range is between 6,500 to 20,000 EGP for sale.
BONUS tip: we highly recommend you follow the social media accounts of all these places, as they keep their accounts updated with special sales.
