Congratulations! You’ve just been proposed to or you have proposed to the love of your life and the answer was yes! This is an exciting and happy time in your life and the series of celebrations leading up to your big wedding day are about to begin.
Your wedding is a public declaration of your commitment to one another and a wonderful chance to celebrate your love with your closest family and friends. Creating a beautiful wedding usually costs quite a bit of money including venue, catering, flowers and most importantly your wedding dress! Budgeting for a wedding and the events leading up to it can be overwhelming. GlamCorner provides a solution to wedding planning stress with the option to hire gorgeous designer dresses for a fraction of the retail price! This means you can save hundreds of dollars and look amazing at your engagement party, bridal shower, hens party, and finally your wedding day.
But the good news doesn’t end there! You can also rent your bridesmaids dresses and mother-of-the-bride dress. Looking for the perfect dresses for your special occasions but don’t know where to start? We’ve put together a selection of our top picks of designer dresses available to hire for every event leading up to your special day!
Whether you are a guest or the host, planning and attending an engagement party requires some pre-outfit forethought! Your outfit will largely depend on the setting of the engagement party; be it a garden, beach, barn or hall. You don’t want to be wearing a delicate full-length gown to a beach for example so be sure to get the details on where the party is to be held, and at what time as this will guide you to what to wear. Keep it simple, you don’t want to be upstaging the actual wedding day and the dress. Stick to a special gown or cocktail dress, but less formal than the one you would be choosing for the actual wedding. A feminine sundress would look great at a beach-themed engagement party, while a classic cocktail dress is suitable to an evening affair.
Whichever dress and for whatever theme, we have included 5 engagement dresses for the bride-to-be. These dresses are available to rent which is perfect for an engagement party. Renting a dress as opposed to buying saves time and money, allowing you to focus on the day itself! With GlamCorner you can order your dress online, and we’ll deliver it to your doorstep between 1-2 business days!

Wedding Reception Dress Style Guide
For the bride-to-be, what you wear to your wedding reception depends greatly on the venue and your mood! A beach wedding in the afternoon for example, would call for a more casual dress but still be in-keeping with the formality of the reception and being the bride. Generally, the wedding reception is to celebrate the union of husband and wife surrounded by family and friends and can include drinks and finger food, music & dancing. So when choosing an outfit, look to styles which will allow movement and comfort; fun yet glamorous styles that the bride can change into to dance, but still look bridal.
We have sourced 5 gorgeous wedding reception dresses from our collection, perfect for your reception. Have ease and peace of mind by renting a dress for the occasion – it’s far cheaper than buying a designer dress at retail price, and we deliver to your door within 1-2 business days. Perfect!
