Trash The Dress

You’re probably heard about the Trash The Dress trend. Basically, after the wedding the bride destroys her dress in some kind of crazy / artsy / funny photoshoot. (Check some lovely ones out right here) Some of them are really quite beautiful, with the bride jumping in a lake in her wedding day white, or playing soccer in the mud. And they’re a nice final shot for your wedding album!

 Some of them, though, just seem like a huge waste. Yeah, I don’t think I’d ever wear my wedding dress again (especially one of those big meringue poufs) but ripping up or burning my dress is just too wasteful. Donate it, save it for the kids, turn into a quilt, but don’t destroy it!
