And thank you for the sympathetic words about our pics -- it helps;-) That could have been a good way to go about it, I didn't think of that! I've found my dress since, but I still think about this one though.
Since you no longer have it to shoot with, you could always get a new dress (a much cheaper one!) and hire a local photographer to get some shots of the two of you around the city? I wouldn't suggest to get into the Vancouver water at this time of year, but you could still get some awesome shots! It's not the same, of course, but it could be fun! There's some great photographers in Van (I'm flying one down for my wedding) and some of them have quite the affordable "engagement session" packages that you could use for that.
