What a ridiculous thought
Unless you plot on wearing it again, why not!
It’s your money your day.
lol what a stupid question !
Trashing it is a bit childish, God help the poor men whose new wives behave like this! If that’s the sort of thing they’re thinking of doing, they need to keep it, because they’ll be needing another one if they have a husband who is a grown up for the next wedding when he leaves
I gave my $1200 dress away to a consignment shop after making them promise me they would sell it super cheap. I could afford a dress that expensive, but not everyone can. I wanted some girl that couldn’t afford much to be able to have a gorgeous, expensive gown for her wedding. Every girl deserves a “dream dress”. I wouldn’t ruin your dress. Someone’s trash could be some one elses treasure.
TTD certainly sounds fun! But I would rather not do it.. it’s a small bit ironic to be thrasing something you wear on your wedding day? I mean shouldn’t it be a memorable item instead??
I would
1) Give it away..
2) Pass it on to my children (the design might be outdated but it could be vintage then! It’s a nice keepsake to pass on.)
3) Send it for alterations and make a cute cocktail dress or evening dress out of it!
Nope, I kept mine for as long as I could, and for me and my husband, when we were first married, we had financial problems, so I had to bring mine to a consignment shop and I was sad, but when my daughter gets married, she will have her own taste and her own thoughts of what she wants in a dress.
LOL, I hope she ends up making her own dress, the way things are so expensive these days, OR, I better start a seperate account at my bank to start saving for my daughter’s dress!!!!!
But TTD seems so disrespectful, I mean, if you are going to TTD, then why get married??? I would question the question if the vows ment anything to the woman getting married, and how would the husband feel????
But, to each his own.
It looks like a really clean opportunity for photos and gorgeous portraits. If it’s done right, it can be a truly incredible result. Here’s a fantastic example:

I would reckon that you would ruin the dress if you were having marriage troubles or going through a divorce. Maybe I just dont get it. How does your hubby feel about it?? You should be asking him this question, not us.
Hell no. I’d rather donate it to a woman who wants to get married but who can’t afford a nice dress. That way the happiness is shared and multiplied, instead of trashed.
Why not donate the dress…? Most wedding dresses are made of Satin and that’s a rather expensive material. It can be made into other things… For one a keepsake for you! You could take it and make something small like a pillow to remember the day. Or a Christening gown for your first baby! What a wonderful way to bring a keepsake around and make the moment even more special.
Don’t trash a wedding dress, no matter how you feel about the dress, it’s silly to ruin something that someone took so long and place so much effort in to make.
Reading the other answers, I had tended to agree that it would be disrespectful of the symbolism of the dress, and much nicer to donate the dress or bring it to a consignment shop. Mostly because trashing the dress brings up connotations of wild rockstar shredding – like trashing a hotel room. BUT after watching the youtube clip that one of the posters linked to, of a bride being photographed in a river and a waterfall my opinion has TOTALLY changed. How gorgeous are the images of the bride in those videos!!! And, the only way to get those kind of photos would be to allow the dress to be ruined, but it is your one special day and those images would last a lifetime.
I reckon that if you do something gorgeous and memorable like that – GO FOR IT!!!
After looking at the you tube posted by Bayougal, I know it a small better. TTD just sounds like a violent and disrespectful thing to do. The video is artistically very gorgeous.
With that being said, I personally wouldn’t want to ruin my dress. But, this is obviously a personal choice. It depends on how you and your husband feel. I would certainly consider his thoughts on this. You don’t want to cause any hurt feelings.
You will after all, have some gorgeous pictures already in the dress from your wedding.
Like I said though, this is a personal choice and if you want to do it, there’s no reason not to.
