Trash the dress

 How many are planning on trash the dress? It seems like more fun than a normal portrait session to me. 

Re: Trash the dress

  • I didn't do trash the dress. Mine's in my closet to this day. But I've seen a lot of trash the dress photos and they definitely look fun!
  • Even though it seem's like such a waste, wearing once and packing away, i couldn't trash it! I spent too much on it and love it too much.  It's been almost 7 months since my wedding and I have yet to do anything with it, i really need to get it to the cleaners and just going to preserve it for now. 
  • I couldn't bear to ruin my dress. I wonder how many of those pictures online are just fake photo shoots because I don't know anyone who's done it in real life.

  • I think it would be a really fun idea. Haven't decided if I want to keep it in a closet forever or do something cool like that yet.
  • I can't imagine doing that. Spending that kind of money and what it means to me, I would never be able to trash it. I plan on preserving mine and keeping it. I don't know anybod in real life either who has considered it or done it personally.
  • Some of them look cool and fun, but it just seems too wasteful to me. Mine is preserved sitting in a closet... so not much better. But if I want to donate it or use it for something someday I know I can.

    Anniversary
  • Not going to do a trash the dress thing but am planning on having my dress shortened to wear out on our anniversaries. A friend of mine did this a few years back and said it makes her remember how special the day was (not that she doesnt think about it more often)

  • When I was a kid around 10 years old, we had neighbors a few houses down, a married couple.

    Then they had a huge fight and broke up, left the house, and threw all kinds of things in the middle of the street, including her wedding dress.

    That's trashed!
