Sell my wedding dress???

I can hardly part with it. Did any of you sell your wedding dress?

 If so, was it worth it?

 I think I'd rather someone else wear it rather than rot in my closet...

 Thanks for your throughts!

Re: Sell my wedding dress???

  • I haven't done anything with my dress yet but I'm thinking about donating it to like Brides Against Cancer or something. I would donate it before I would sell it.

  • Mine's in a trash bag in my closet.  If we ever have children I'll have it made into a baptismal gown, otherwise it'll probably just sit there.  You could try Pre Owned Wedding dresses, the trash to treasure board, charity, etc.  There's a bridal consignment shop called Chaz on Montgomery Rd & I think Snooty Fox takes them too.

  • I was engaged to the completely wrong guy back in 2000 and didn't come to my senses until after I had bought a dress. I ended up taking that dress to Chaz Bridal Consignment in Silverton, and it sold in a few months.

    For my "real" wedding dress, though, I decided to have it cleaned and boxed. I don't think that my future daughter (if i have one) would want to wear it, but it may have some use down the road--maybe even for a 10th anniversary celebration? I loved it too much to part with it.

  • Yeah, I hate to part with it but maybe I'll look into donating it taking it to Chaz.

     

    Thanks!
