Dress Trashing

3 Reasons to consider a dress trashing

There are many reasons why a couple might consider having a dress trashing and you may want to consider the option for your special occasion.
 
Some of the reasons I've come across so far are:
 
1. The day of the wedding, it rained and the couple were unable to get a lot of the outdoor shots that they wanted to have taken
Inclement weather - who can predict it!  With the wedding day is all done you will be a lot more relaxed because the pressure is off.  You can take this opportunity to get the bridal party together again and have some great shots taken.
 
2.  The couple wanted the classic photos for the parents but they didn't want the cookie cutter wedding images to dominate their album
The classic shots are great but you might want to show the future generations that you had some fun!  Let's face it; the dress is only going to sit in the bottom of the wardrobe for the next couple of decades so instead of getting moth eaten and mouldy, give it the exit party it deserves!
 
3. You want fun shots taken for your wedding invitations
Ok, so you don't actually use THE dress for this exercise!  You buy a preloved gown and the groom can wear suit pants and a ruffled shirt from the local op shop for the occasion.  Ask the photographer if they can do a package deal for the invitations, the wedding and a dress trashing after the big day!  It's also a great way to find out what gown styles you might like when it comes time to finding the one!
