Actually we could say that we are "washing the dress"... seriously, if you are going to be in the beach, the dress will be perfect, no need to worry about it. Doing a "trash the dress" in other locations may be a different case, BUT, I promise you doing it at the beach will only be great fun, amazing photos, and a wet dress, that will be perfect almost in any case (I guess it also depends on the fabric) Anyway... I'm excited about my own trashing the dress, I know the images I will get will worth way more than a dress hang up in a closet. :) “Trash the dress” is a big word…, the photoshoots I’ve done with brides wearing the dress after the wedding, and even swimming in the ocean on it, are pretty safe.

My second wedding, I wore a purple silk dress I already owned. Didn't want to trash it because I kept wearing it.

When we first got engaged, I kept pressuring The Beard to elope...more than anything, I wanted to go to the Boston clerk's office in a wedding dress. That sounds so fun, Meg!

We wandered around the vegas strip for a couple hours. I think the bottom 4 inches are black with asphalt and whatever else. Still need to remember to get that into the cleaners. :D I trashed my dress post-wedding. We wandered around the vegas strip for a couple hours.
