Do/did you have a reception dress?

2bebridejamaica · July 8, 2008

So girls did you have or do you have a reception/dinner dress to change into? If you do where did you find it?

I am totally up in the air about this but I think it might be a good option to be thinking about since my WD is a fuller style and I don't want to be a wet rag baking in the sun totally uncomfortable. Past couple of weekends I have been strolling through the malls and online seeing what might be available but nothing has caught my eye. My intention is to have a simple chiffon knee length maybe with some straps or not... who knows.

Any help would be great... I'm at a on this one, and I know you girls always pull through!!

I don't have one yet, but I definitely plan on getting a reception dress because my wedding dress is so heavy.

I am planning to get a reception dress. I have not found it yet though...I know it will be short, but not sure on the color yet...

I always said I didn't want to change into another dress bc my wedding day is the only day I get to wear my beautiful dress but as of lately I keep wondering if I'll be able to dance comfortable in my dress or not. So I may buy a reception dress "just in case". My wedding dress is chiffon so its not very heavy but again I dont know how comfortable it will be to dance. hmmm, I'll have to think about this some more I guess.

Oh this is the dress I saw in a magazine that I wouldnt mind having as a reception dress

"This flowing, chiffon, tea length halter neck dress has a low cut front and a natural waist belt detail with crystal buckle."

See now that is exactly what I am talking about ... I have been on a hunt for something like that... My dress is all chiffon too but it's heavy and with all the recent super heat we have been having I tried it on and I felt horribly uncomfortable...

My wedding dress is slim and not heavy/bulky. I have a feeling that I won't want to take it off, since I will never get to wear it again...so I will probably wear it for the reception. But it is fun having multiple dresses to wear

I have a few... Im just not sure which one I want to wear.... I just bought 2 at Jane Norman here in the UK... LOVE THEM. They arent white though. I need color. White is so blah.
