Me wearing my mother's wedding dress.......with PICS!

This is me wearing my mom's wedding dress! She was married 30 years ago!

It was not preserved so it has yellowed very badly....but once upon a time it was white! I want to have it restored for her!

I honestly have to say that dress doesn't look dated at all and really is amazing. I would of worn that - it so pretty.

Thank you! It fit like a glove too! I told my mom I could have made it into a halter and wore it! But it really needs some major restoration.......and I already got my dress! LOL!

I think it's soo great you want to have it restored for her.

The dress is beautiful and not dated at all.

Re: Me wearing my mother's wedding dress.......with PICS!

that is such a beautiful dress! elegant, full of character and just plain beautiful. you're so lucky too that your mom kept her wedding dress! i remember as a kid (being bad), I actually ruined one of my mom's wedding dresses
