Ask a Question - Keep or Sale wedding dress? - COWGIRLZNEN88's Yellow Wedding by Color Blog

Definitely keeping it. Hopefully my future daughter can wear it someday!

I think I am just going to keep it. It is just going to sit in my closet, but a tradition in our family is to have my future little daughters try the dress on when they are about 5 or 6 years old and take pictures of them in it. Plus Brandon really wants me to keep it just in case one of our daughters will want to wear it - I doubt it because I would never wear my Mom's and my Mom didn't want to wear my grandma's, but maybe they can cut it up and alter it...

I am keeping mine....so that hopefully my daughter or granddaughter will want to wear it...I wanted to wear my grandmas wedding dress....but I dont get too :(

I would never wear my 'mothers' dress! Lol!!!! It was long sleeves and what not...Not to mention it has chocolate

Ooops... I meant chocolate stains on it. Think she said it was from cake or something? I'd be PISSSSED! Hah!

GIRRRLLLLL.... as much as my dress cost I was trying to sell it in the bridal salon during the fittings!! $$$$$$$$$$

But after it was all said and done, I can't part with it. I have one more party/reception for all the fam we couldn't have there, that's in July, and I am wearing it one more time. After that it will probably sit in my closet. :( My nephew who did our engagement photos wants to do a "destroy the dress" shoot, but I can't bring myself to do it. Maybe in a few more years! :)

keeping it!!
i know my future daughter will not want to wear it, but like alybrand said, she may want to incorporate it somehow in the wedding or her wedding dress.

Selling it. As much as I love the dress I will not do anything with it later....would be good to make some money off it before it is out of fashion.

NOT AT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!! its a keepsake even if my future daughter doesn't want to wear it, I just wouldn't want to sell it....

keep it, who knows maybe my daughter will want to wear it

Undecided

I like the idea of keeping it for a daughter. I would have loved to wear my mom's dress cause she was married in the 50's and it might have been in style again in a retro way but she eloped so she doesn't have one. I will probably sell it while it's still in style. Make it possible for another bride on a budget to have the dress she wants. Even if I do have a daughter and actually likes the dress, it might not fit. My fiance's a big guy, I might not have thin kids. Too many maybes. I might keep the veil for a future daughter though.

Actually that's a good question, I think I going to pay the $99 for the conservation and then I going to sell it back. Why I going to have the wedding dress, I'm not planning to use it again.

I'm either keeping it or going to do a Trash the dress photo shoot. I know I couldn't completely part with it.

Gosh, I still don't know.
Our house is pretty small right now and keeping a huge dress would be unwise. Also, my daughter will be pretty tall by the looks of it ( I am only 5'4", but husband is 6'4") and I doubt my dress would ever fit her. So I may sell it afterwards. Who knows...

I'm thinking about making mine into a baptism dress if I have kids and maybe taking parts of it and make it into something else as well

I have been married once before and I kept my original dress for my daughter. Though I don't think she will wear it with styles changing. It is more of momento of her Mother to have as a keepsake. This time my wedding dress is going to be donated to Brides against breast cancer. It is a wonderful charity that helps brides who can't afford dresses and also helps grant final wishes to woman and men who are dying from cancer. Tax Deductible too.
