Wedding gear only gets worn once, and cost a fortune. There are other choices:- check the local charity shops - several Oxfam stores around the Country have bridal departments (the nearest to Shrewsbury is Coventry). If you make your own dress you can be more creative with materials (e.g. recycled, organic, reused, fair trade). Some designers specialise in making wedding dresses out of organic fabrics.

Jewellery

There may be some family jewellery, or buy from antique shops or commission local skilled crafts people to make bespoke jewellery, 
or choose ethically-mined and sold gold - this makes a lot of difference to the lives of miners and their communities.
