Me and my fiancé are thinking about going to Colorado to self-solemnize our marriage sometime before I give birth to our daughter in November. We are not gonna have wedding flowers, no wedding dress or suit, no professional photography, etc. this is because we want to get married casually. My question though is that would be getting professional pictures done one our one year anniversary wearing my wedding dress that I bought before I got pregnant be weird or cute?

    I personally don't think that would be weird! That seems like a good idea to me!

    You could also do a vow renewal at the one year mark to have a mini celebration and do the pics and all that. I bought my dress and then we ended up eloping earlier than we had planned the wedding because he needed health insurance. We stuck with our original date and wedding ceremony for a vow renewal and I wore my dress and we did all the traditional things. There was an 8 month gap between the two.
