Attn destination wedding brides

[hlinnea10]

Hey,

I need a little insight from brides who had a destination wedding, or are going to have one.  We are having a reception back home in MN a few weeks after we get back, what do you wear??  It will be at a really nice restaurant with a dance/dj after apps/wine.

Help!

I will be wearing my wedding dress.

Depends on the vibe you're going for. Some wear their wedding dress, and others dress more casual or slightly formal. I think it's all in the tone you're going for. Sounds like you wanna wear something semi-formal from your description.

all depends on the kind of reception you want to have and well basically, what you want to do!

 

i for one am going to have a TON of fabric leftover from my wedding dress after the alterations are done and am planning on using that fabric to make my own AHR dress.   we're having a very low key BBQ type reception so it will be perfect

If you search for AHR (At Home Reception) you will find a ton of ideas. Here is a link to my AHR thread. I was going to wear my dress again, but decided to wear a short dress from BCBG. Happy planning!

I would either wear the same dress again, or another 'wedding' type dress. Its so fun being the bride, so make the most of it!
