I have decided that as my dress is huge and quite heavy etc that it would not be too practical to wear all evening for the reception as it would be hard to dance etc in it, so im going to return home at 6 and get changed into a green cocktail dress which i will wear with my ivory faux fur shrug and that way i still look like a bride but can relax more :)

what about everyone else??

No way!! I've waited forever for my dress and i'll be wearing it for as long as possible :rofl:
 
No way........ I blew my buget on my cinderella dress so I'm wearing it for as long as possible!

Plus I'm always disapointed when I turn up to the evening do and the bride has changed. My friend done it at her wedding - I was late arriving and didn't see her dress.....I was gutted :dohh:

xx
 
yes there is that aspect but all our close family and closest friends will be there during the ceremony and wedding breakfast so most ppl will see me in my dress :)

I may change my mind yet but at the mo id rather be able to enjoy a good dance etc at the evening x
 
Ive been debating this one too ...

I think the option im going to go for is wear my dress at the evening reception say until after the first dance and cutting the cake, and then change, so that way everyone does get to see me in my dress, then i can let off and be a bit more comfortable as mine is extremely heavy too
 
yeah that could be a idea. We are having our 1st dance at the afternoon reception tho so that wont matter so much but not sure what i should do! arrrrr best make a choice fast cos my wedding is less that 3wks away! lol

Im probably changing. Im not changing until about 9pm into something, that way people can still see me in it and I can have a good dance!
 
I won't be changing for the evening reception. I will however be bringing a t-shirt to put over my dress as there may be a very young baby there and I'd want to have a quick hold if I can! My dress isn't particularly weddingy anyway- it won't be any variation on white and will be quite light weight. Only the corseting might be an issue really!

Beca :wave:
 
Mine is heavy too but I won't be wearing it.

If I have my way I will be sleeping in it that night!! :cloud9:

xXx
 
Not a hope!!!! It will only be coming off in order for me to enjoy :winkwink: our wedding night but if it wasn't for that, I'd be sleeping in it!!!

I am definately wearing mine all day! Can you get it bustled (I think thats what is called!) at the back so its easier to wear? Thats what I'm doing with mine for the evening do so I can dance all night! xx

I was debating it but i think i'm doing what you're doing, PP.

Although, i suppose it depends on what kind of dress i end up getting...i've got lots of time to choose :lol:
 
No way!! My dress is staying on as long as possible! x
 
No chance...not spending over 2k on a dress to change into something else - it just wouldn't feel like my wedding day if I took the dress off before the party was finished! I want to wear it the next day too! lol

Yup me too lol! Mine does have quite a long train on it but it bustles up at the back to get rid of the train and hooks onto a button under the dress so it just looks like a wedding dress without the train :thumbup:
