Trash the Dress - crazy brides!

[NABUMBAH]

I am strongly considering getting soaked post-ceremony and having my mom make me a short vintage-inspired dress for the reception & dancing. I need to see how mom feels about that, I guess.

 

think photos like this:

 

where i can keep my hair & makeup looking good. I guess that would mean that Chris would need another outfit too though... we'll see.

I think it's a cool idea. I would love to see someone on this forum do these types of photos.

My bridesmaids jumped in the pool in their gowns toward the end of the evening. It was very funny. Too bad the photographer was gone. I don't think we got any photos.

 

Day after sounds cool. Maybe there's another way of thinking about this. Maybe you find a very inexpensive dress that you wouldn't have to alter but still gets the point accross.

 

You could have a fun shot mid-air jumping into the pool or any number of those photos in the water. The guys clothes are still an issue, though. Especially since they can still wear them again.

These shots are amazing but it hurts me to think of putting my (not that I have one yet) gorgeous wedding dress in a chlorine pool or sea water. Now if therre was a fresh water pool available I'd be a little more willing. I dfo think it would be really cool to do this the next day in a second (cheap) dress - just for the amazing pictures!

I agree - I may look at getting a simple, inexpensive dress to do some shots like this. Why not?!

[gkashmira]

I think I want to do this! The more I think about it the more cool it seems (in a different dress though). I think it would actually be amazing to do in a saree too!

[gkashmira]

I actually realize I already have a cheap dress to do this in! remember that dress i got for $50 from loehman's? perfect!

I forgot about that dress Kash- that would be perfect!

I'm planning to do this with my 1st dress I bought forever ago...

I was just searching on Craig's List and eBay - I should definitely be able to find something.

I love the idea of doing those kinds of pics just like the rest of u said in a cheap dress...somewhere in a cave or off a boat sailing into the sunset...lol sry im getting a little carried away
