Buying from wish?

Fmv, on March 26, 2019 at 5:25 PM Posted in Planning 0 11
So i saw a few videos on youtube and brides have mentioned they have bought some odd and end things from wish for their wedding.
I took a look and there is actually some cute stuff for pretty cheap.
What have you bought from wish?
Do you recommend or should i totally avoid it?

    I haven't bought anything wedding related from wish. But I have bought a few shirts from there. They were smaller than normal sizes, but I'm guessing because it's in China that might be why. So I would say hit or miss with them. I have been thinking of ordering from them as well, but haven't found anything on there I need yet.

    Its definitely not high quality stuff usually although I did get a bluetooth aux adapter for my car that has worked great for 2 years so far. Clothes are always way way small but I've gotten a couple pairs of boots that were nicer, they only lasted a season but I also only paid like 10 bucks so I'm okay with that. Honestly, it's kind of hit or miss but for anything wedding that really only needs to last 1 night I think it's worth the risk...honestly I kind of forgot about that site...might have to go looking now

    I haven't bought any wedding stuff from Wish, but I plan to look there. My daughter loves this site, and orders things all the time. She swears by it, and she hasn't gotten anything cheap or trashy, so I think it's a good place to look.

    I agree with the hit and miss, i order little odds and ends there all the time, but be sure you have PLENTY of time because most things take about a month to arrive and sometimes its not what you want. My biggest advice if going with Wish is reading the reviews on whatever you want from each seller as they have been the most helpful.

    There's actually a youtuber that did a video recently where she bought 4 wedding dresses from Wish and it did not go well. Here's the link if you want to check it out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcZdTvOqmvI&t=1368s

    I was really curious myself which is why I watched it and the dresses are hilariously misrepresented on the website compared to what she received. They looked like doll clothes quality.

    My mom buys clothes from Wish sometimes and it's hit or miss but I wouldn't recommend them for a wedding dress.

    I think it depends on what you're looking at. I bought some cute lights and fake pedals for an arts and craft project, both which came in fine condition. The clothes though usually come nothing like they look like and are much smaller than the size you order. What I suggest you do is order a few cheap things you like and see how you feel overall about it. That's what I did.

    What types of things are you thinking like decor, lights, material, or candles? If you have the time, yes it takes awhile. If you don't have the time I am sure there are deals elsewhere. I am going to look at wish just to see if there's anything I could use since I have the time to wait!

    I was going to order some things from there but I heard that it takes them forever to deliver. So with your wedding being so far out you should be okay.. More than enough time for you to order see delivery timing and quality of the merchandise...

    It takes at least 1 month to get anything you order so keep that in mind. I would steer clear of getting any clothes related items but it is great for the décor/jewelry type of stuff.

    I bought a few various head pieces(higher than a dollar) which were not bad...read the reviews and look at the actual customer pictures.Ya never know....
    As for clothing,everything needs sizing up unless you are rather small in stature and super lean.
    Plus with Wish,the item may come in two weeks or 6 months..Good luck and congratulations.
