"Since meeting Linda, I've seen terrific changes in Paul. He seems much more confident these days. He's surer of what he wants. He's happier, and he's much more willing to bend these days, too. Although he’s still adamant that Arsenal will win the next seasons Champions League."

Instructions

1. Online Listing and Auction Sites

   • 1

     Create a detailed listing. Advertise your dress in local newspapers and online. Be specific in your description and include pictures. Describe the dress with as much detail as possible, including the size and measurements, the cut of the neckline and the color of the dress. If there is lace or beading, describe the type of lace and beading and the location on the dress.

     If you are including accessories such as the veil, note this also and consider this when pricing.

   • 2

     Research the price that you are asking. Make sure to make the price reasonable so you can sell it quickly. Do not forget to allot enough money for transporting the dress to the buyer.

   • 3

     Take a lot of pictures. Take photos from different aspects and views, and the more shots, the better.

   Consignment Shops

   • 4

     Locate a local consignment shop that specializes in bridal wear.

   • 5

     Negotiate the selling price. Be fair with the price as you will most likely not get what you paid for the dress.

   • 6

     Sign the shop's contract. The terms of the contract are also negotiable- however, it is usually 90 days in duration with a 50 percent split of the profits. If the dress remains unsold at the end of the contract period, it can be renegotiated.

     Maintain contact with the consignment shop. Make sure to keep them updated in case of a move or you change your phone number.
