To sell or not to sell...

my dress. Im not sure what to do. Part of me wants to keep it but we could definitely use the money. I just got it back from the dry cleaners and its in perfect condition. Is anyone else selling their dresses?

I havent worn mine yet. I loveeeee my dress but I said a long time ago. Im gonna try to sell it. I hate stuff, clutter, things. If I can find someone to buy it I will sell it....

I mentioned selling my dress to my mom and was told NO, it will be cleaned & boxed.

Not that this is an answer but... I keep thinking of the scene in 27 Dresses where she is taking up a whole closet for dresses and he tells her it's NY closet space is valuable!!!

I would never sell my dress! It's going to be cleaned and boxed too!

Dont alot of people save them and then use them to make a christening outfit (if there is a baby down the road) and to make a nice baby blanket out of?

at first i thought that i might sell it or do a 'trash the dress' photo session, but i decided to preserve and keep it (now i just have to get off my lazy *** and do it!)

not selling it. i want to be able to look at it in 50 years and be like 'wow, this is the dress i wore on my wedding day' and show my kids and grandkids.... just like my mom did

Not sure yet, a part of me wants to sell bc it will really just sit there and I will probably never cut it and use it for something else and if I have a daughter she probalby most likely won't wear it so I am on the fence, but than again it will be beautiful to look back on years from now...so not too sure yet!

That's what I plan on doing.

I would totally sell mine. It's just going to hang in a closet for the rest of my life and I can't really see myself cutting it up, even if it were for my children. Plus, my dress style has been discontinued so I could probably get a good chunk for it!

I had a talk with my mom and DH about either selling or making a christening gown out of the train, they both said to keep it and don't do anything to it. But we have a day after photo session after that I am going to have it cleaned and preserved.
