Have you tried on your wedding gown, since your wedding??

I still haven't had mine boxed and I really want to go put it on again. I feel like I didn't get to wear it enough and I love it so much. I am crazy?? I think I have too much time on my hands.

Re: Have you tried on your wedding gown, since your wedding??

i tried to put it on, i'll be honest, but there are hooks in the back on a panel to cover the zipper, and my hands coudlnt' get it closed! i was mad because i really wanted to wear it.
now it's boxed up to be cleaned, so i cant' try it on

Re: Have you tried on your wedding gown, since your wedding??

I haven't.......YET!

Part of me is dying to put it back on again, but I almost feel like it would be bad luck or something? I also lost some weight before my wedding, and have since gained it back - not enough to make a difference, but I'm a little nervous about trying it on again just in case!

It's so tempting though! I haven't taken it to be preserved yet - maybe this weekend I'll try it on just one last time...... :) terrible!

I did get to try mine on again. I had to take it back to the Wedding Salon to prove that they butchered the alterations. I had to show the manager and the seamstress how poorly it fit.

They agreed and credited me $212.

Re: Have you tried on your wedding gown, since your wedding??

No, sadly, I left it in NY (at my parents to get preserved) when I came back to STL. I haven't seen it since the wedding

Re: Have you tried on your wedding gown, since your wedding??

Because it's preserved I won't. But I've gained too much weight since then. It would be very depressing!

Re: Have you tried on your wedding gown, since your wedding??

I did! I was dying to put it on for the longest time. But felt kind of weird doing it -- when DH wasn't home. So right before I sent it to be preserved I put it on. Ahhhh

Re: Have you tried on your wedding gown, since your wedding??

I REALLY want to, but I have a feeling that it will only make me feel depressed to have it on, knowing that the day is done...

Re: Have you tried on your wedding gown, since your wedding??

No. It's all cleaned and boxed up. The thought never crossed my mind.

I haven't, but I always tell my married friends that we should sit around in our wedding gowns and drink beer like Rachel, Phoebe and Monica did on Friends.

I do, however, wear my wedding shoes all the time. I have them on right now. I refused to spend all that money on a pair of shoes just to throw them in with my collection of BM shoes that I only wore once.
