What did you do with your Dress AFTER?

[Allaballa]

I plan to get into mine at least once a year. This is my weight maintenance plan. I want to be able to say 15 years from now that I can still get into my wedding dress.

 

Having said that, my best friend pointed out that it's a corset back, so really if I gain weight I can still get into it. But I think it will still keep me motivated to keep my weight off regardless.

 

Besides, think of how much fun it would be if you can wear your dress like 20 years from now for a vow renewal ceremony.

Oh yes we are!!! Mine is still in my closet, filthy, someday I'll get it cleaned!

We can make it a group thing, imagine if we ever had a group meetup and we all wore our dresses, hanging out somewhere having drinks, all of these past brides, that would be funny!

I've still got my mum's and her veil I wouldn't part with it because she made it herself - I wish I could have fit in it but I'm way taller than she was lol

 

My first dress went in a bin liner and in the waste with the rubbish - mind u i did get divorced lmao

 

This one not sure to be honest might keep it, I could wear it for allsorts because its not really a wedding dress
