While writing a blog for this site I posed the question "what happens to all these wedding gowns" ? and I started to research The life of a wedding gown in fact the life was not what
was interesting me it was the demise of these once such cherished possessions that I really
wanted to investigate, the results surprised me.
The most common answer to my question "what happened to your wedding dress?" was quite often the same "its wrapped in a large plastic bag in the loft !"... shocking!
Some brides had attempted to resell the dress although no one had actually sold one.
This took my investigation in a new direction the resale of wedding gowns. I started by looking
on ebay but I soon regretted clicking on to this site it was chocker block of gowns that had
escaped trashing that no one wanted not even the original owners as they were up for sale and very few bids were being made. This was a very sad sight.
Initially I had reservations about the "trash the dress" idea but having researched the demise
of what was once a garment that was more difficult to find than the holy grail, I realise that
the emotional attachment is usually the only obstacle that brides have to overcome
before becoming "TRASHERS".
I was also interested to hear that some of those asked would have loved to have trashed the dress if only they could fit into it!
Trashing the dress is a celebration of your dress and the emotions you have invested in it,
take the opportunity to create more memories by trashing before its to late.
