what are you going to do with your gown after the wedding?
keep it & hope your future daughter wears it for her day? Sell? Donate? What will you do?
I love my gown but I dont think my (future) daughter would wear it. It'll probly look dated by then!

sit around in it while eating until it doesn't fit me so i dont feel so bad that it doesn't fit anymore.
i'll probably do dishes in the freakin thing. all that money for one day....but i love it so much.

Sell that sucker! :) Or-see if my sister wants to wear it, shes a 2011 bride. I doubt she'd go for that though.....

I will probably transform the train into a baptism outfit for my first child....so I guess I'll be butchering my dress

I am definitely going to wear it to bed every night. lol it does look like sort of an old fashioned night gown. just super fancy. stick an oil lamp in my hand and i'm good to go.

Donate it. There are so many brides out there that can't afford a dress, and I didn't spend a huge fortune on it so I guess I'm not -as- attached to it.

I have a 3 year old sister, maybe one day she will want to wear it.
That's because FH is already telling me we are having boys. lol

I'm toying with a trash the dress shoot on the beach when the weather gets warmer...
After that -- I don't know.

Me too. I'd be thrilled to know I made someone's wedding day special. I just know that I'm a klutz and keep having nightmares I'll spill something on it!!

I'm going to do a Day After Shoot (and not the day after either), so I don't want to preserve it right away.
But after that I'm going to preserve it and hopefully I can use the lace to make a christening gown for my kids one day.

You ladies gave me a great idea about making it into a christening outfit for the babies. So I might do that and just make whatever I can out of it for the kiddies.
