This post is all about tiered wedding dresses. Smart brides know that there’s no shortage of options when it comes to the look you want for your big day, but if you love layers, texture and tiers, you’ll definitely want to check out our top picks. Whether you’re looking for layers with an architectural, romantic or modern feel, we’ve got you covered with beautiful options from Vera Wang, Demetrios, J.Crew and more – all available for a fraction of their retail cost.


Modern Tiers: Demetrios Wedding Dress

For a unique take on the tier trend, have a look at this brand new size 12 Demetrios wedding dress from the 2010 collection. We just love the high neckline (very Queen Elizabeth) – it’s unlike anything we’ve seen lately. It’s a perfect complement to the figure hugging silhouette and the 3 tiered skirt. A modern and completely unique wedding look for just $500.
