spinoff to gown perservation

so i got mine perserved at bridal reflections....i paid more than most of u girls but i guess i took the convenience over cost....it was $263 but i got the gown, veil and purse perserved together....it was kind of sad bc it made it all final....but i came to the conclusion that im gonna make small things out of the dress so that i get good use out of it....for example christening outfits for any children i might have....communion dress even?...so that made the sadness go to giddiness of whats to come
