Have you worn any of your wedding stuff since?

Inkdancer · January 2015

Not yet. It's hard to rewear white satin shoes. I would definitely wear the jewelry again, I just haven't had the opportunity.

I guess I did wear the corset again on the honeymoon...

decembergrl2014 · January 2015

It's only been 3 1/2 weeks since my wedding but I already know I won't fit back into it. I've worn my earrings since, and I was going to wear my headband on NYE but decided against it. I'll definitely wear the shoes again.

My dress had a plain skirt so I could shorten it without losing the beading and ruching, and maybe wear it when H and I go to Hawaii in the summer. I think I'll definitely put it on on our 1st anniversary, shortened or not.

My dress was a corset back and when my sister strapped me in, she tied a hell of a knot and cut off the excess. H had to cut the ribbon to get me out of the dress. So I'd have to get a new ribbon to wear it again.
Wha wha wha WHAT?! But whyyyyy?!

It would have taken a LONG time to get me out without cutting it. There were more important things happening at that moment.

Not yet, but I intend to wear my shoes at some point (I got them because I'd been looking for a pair like them for years and knew I could re-wear them).

If anyone can help me style my ivory satin shoes with a more normal dress, I'll love you forever. I adored these shoes.... To the point where my mom was looking at my photos online and saying, "You have a lot of shoe pictures." Damn straight I did...

Cookie Pusher · January 2015

The jewelry I wore for my wedding is part of my normal jewelry rotation, so they've been worn quite a bit since the wedding. One pair of shoes has been worn probably a half dozen times since the wedding, and the other pair made an appearance at another wedding a couple months ago. I've packed the dresses up for donation, so hopefully someone will be able to wear and enjoy them.

amelisha · January 2015

I'm wearing a bunch of stuff I already own and wear, so I'll continue to do so after my wedding. My wedding shoes (sparkly turquoise heels) have already been on a few nights out and I don't think I'm buying special jewelry, so that's that.

My mom is OBSESSED with the idea of me wearing a tiara though and after I flat-out refused, she went out and bought me a sparkly headband, so if I get roped into wearing it, I definitely won't be wearing it again.

@thisismynickname I have a navy, green & white floral dress that I'd totally wear those shoes with! It's like a sheath shape (tight), knee length.

I will for sure wear my shoes once summer hits - they are floral pumps, so they don't exactly go with six inches of snow

My earrings will be reworn for special, fancy schmancy occasions.

l9i · January 2015

Thinking back to not wearing my white satin shoes... they are dyable type so I'm thinking of taking them and getting them black. I would def wear them then.

princessleia22 · January 2015

I have worn my shoes (blue snakeprint Stuart Weitzman pumps). I don't wear heels often, but these are the only "designer" shoes I own and they are a million times more comfortable than any of my other heels, so they are now my go-to dress shoes. But, I bought more expensive shoes with the intent of getting something that wouldn't kill my feet on my wedding day and that would be wearable afterward. I figured why shouldn't I spend money on shoes that I'll wear again, and that could seriously impact my wedding day comfort, when it was okay to spend $1000 on a dress that I'll wear once... so I did include good shoes as a significant budget item.

DH bought me my wedding jewelry (tanzanite & diamond - photo below). I had originally planned to wear it more often, but it's somewhat formal and a bit too fancy to wear every day with t-shirts & jeans. I do wear it whenever we dress up though.

And, since my blue shoes and blue jewelry from the wedding are now my dressy favorites, I do find them being a factor when shopping for new dresses or dressier clothes. I tend to look for outfits that will go with my shoes & necklace now, instead of the other way around.

My hair clips are a bit too sparkly for everyday, but they are sitting on a shelf with our champagne glasses & wedding albums.

My dress is still hanging in my home office and I still need to get it cleaned (6+ months since wedding). My intent is to sell or donate it whenever I get around to doing so. But, I will say the urge has come a few times to go try it on, because I absolutely loved my dress.

I am going to have to remember that for next NYE if we do anything fancy. I usually hate NYE but I will go out and dress up if it means I can wear my awesome headband again.

ShesSoCold · January 2015

We also cut my headband off. I'm learning that we're impatient.

wandajune6 · January 2015

I wore nude open-toed slingbacks from Cole Haan. I've worn them in black for years so I'll inevitably wear these a lot too, once the snow subsides.

There's not much else I could wear- borrowed jewelry, no bra, broken hair piece, etc. Only the dress and it's already too small.

cupcait927 · January 2015

I've worn the underwear from my wedding day but that's it. My headband is too fancy for anything I'll ever go to, and I don't wear jewelry so the earrings most likely won't get worn again. My shoes were ivory kitten heel sandals that I never see myself wearing again and should just sell or donate them.

I need to get rid of my dress as well. I absolutely hate my dress and can't even bring myself to look at it since the wedding, let alone put it on again.

southernbelle0915 · January 2015

Nope. None of it. I love my bright green pumps but just haven't found the occasion. They're patiently waiting for me.

VulgarGirl · January 2015

I've worn the shoes...3 times now I think. And the dress once.

The jewelry a few times too but honestly it was mostly stuff I already owned. Nothing too special.

Ditto. This makes me sad to hear you hate your dress.

I got myself way too stressed about the dress shopping experience and ended up with something I hated by the time the wedding day rolled around. I settled for something that I only kind of loved because I was so concerned about the budget and not going over it. Then the alterations went horrendously so I hated it even more. I will forever regret (sounds so dramatic, I know) not buying the very first dress I tried on. It was stunning and the only one that made my mom cry happy tears. But it would've been about $500 over budget when all was said and done and at the time I couldn't bring myself to do it. Now, I wish I had. I'd wear that dress every damn day.

HeatherKat · January 2015

Not married yet, but I've worn the bra/tummy-sucker-inner under dresses for several other weddings already. And I wear my shoes around the house. Both because they are amazing and because they are tight and I'm hoping I can stretch them out before the wedding!

bellaluna290 · January 2015

I have worn my shoes again (Kate Spade Charm in silver) and the panties I wore underneath, but it was just a black seamless thong.

kaitlynmichelle · January 2015

I've worn all my jewellery again already to a staff party and I wore the shawl I made for the same occasion. My shoes were a bit too big but they're actually designed to be flats worn while backpacking once you set up your campsite. They'll get used for sure this summer.

I already rewore my dress a week after the wedding on a hike we did to get some epic pictures. I'll put it on again when I'm around the house one day likely. Otherwise I'll probably never wear it again. I love them so here's a few!

Vivandiere8 · January 2015

My friend had a large joint Bachelor/Batchelorette party in which they asked everyone to come dressed as "sexy brides and grooms". Well I had a knee length white wedding dress I changed into for about the last hour of the night so I could get in some crazy swing dance moves with my husband (the lady I bought my dress gave it to me since she knew I was a dancer. It was a display dress they were getting rid of). So I wore that to the party! I have also worn the earings and shoes.

SBmini · January 2015

I wore the bracelet to a fancy work event last month. I almost wore the earrings too but opted instead of wear a wedding gift. Which isn't too different.

My dress is still hanging in my closet. Unwashed and un-preserved! I need to do that.

jdluvr06 · January 2015

I've worn shoes several times. I've worn the dress a couple of times too. My dress wasn't fancy though and is mint green.

Sugargirl1019 · January 2015

I wore my necklace and earrings to a Christmas party.

I still tell DH he's gonna find me in my wedding dress one day, begging him to lace the corset up before he can undo it again..

ashley8918 · January 2015

Yep. I've worn the necklace, earrings, and bracelet (simple pearls), bolero (pretty causal, really), and the shoes multiple times.

I mean, what occasion are these shoes NOT appropriate for, really?!

Hint: The answer is none. No such occasion exists.

lovesclimbing · January 2015

I wore a pearl set for the wedding and have worn it a few times since. I expect to get a lot of wears out of it.

I've worn my shoes a few times.

I put on my wedding dress for our first anniversary and was planning to do so for our second but totally spaced.
