Couture wedding gowns are one of a kind, made to the exact wishes of a bride, and this guarantees that no one else will walk down the aisle in the same dress as yours. Compare this to off the rack dresses (particularly if you choose not to have major alterations done - like changing the neckline) then there's always the possibility that someone you know, will wear the same outfit. You pay a higher price for a bridal gown, because it's completely original.
Not all brides want the complete lace wedding dresses 2016, but lace can also be used to add minor details. A lace overlay on top of a silk gown is a popular choice, as are delicate lace sleeves with a predominantly silk dress, or a lace bodice with a silk skirt. Lace details can be used at the waist, on the train, around the hem of the dress, or on the veil. Lace can also be used to make a shrug or jacket.
Another major factor that alters the price of a dress is its material. To keep costs low, off the cheap wedding dresses are usually cut from more economical (often synthetic) fabrics, but one of the hallmarks of the wedding gowns is how it drapes and keeps its shape, and this is due to what it's made from. Couturiers typically work with the finest fabrics - like silk - which are natural, delicate, durable and, as expected, more expensive.
The fact that you get to have a say in creating your dream bridal gowns may be personal enough, but if you can have it made by someone you know such as a friend or relative, or even a local dressmaker, it will be all the more special. Cheap Wedding Dresses don't need to be made by high profile designers. Any quality bespoke gown can be called couture.
