Reception Dress Question

Meganandlonginittonguyenit, on December 27, 2019 at 4:13 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 5

So my better half and I are getting married at the courthouse in January. I am wearing a beautiful red gown. He is Asian an the whole red is good luck is something I wanted to surprise him with. My question is that come our actual Wedding ceremony and all that in October I wanted to change into the red dress for our reception and kind of like a throw back and nod to our civil wedding in a couple weeks. What's your thoughts? Stick to the white for our ceremony or switch into the red gown for reception and nostalgia?

    Noooooooooo change if you want. Many brides change into something different for their reception and I think it is a nice way to honor his culture in front of his family.

    Go with the red. Its beautiful, unique and it pays homage to his culture.

    My sister is wearing a red Chinese dress for her reception cause her fiancé is Chinese. I think you should do what makes you happy!

    I like the idea of changing dresses to honor FH's heritage! That would be so sweet

    Absolutely! I’ve been to a few American-Asian weddings where the bride wore a white wedding dress during the ceremony and changed at some point during the reception into a red cultural dress (Chinese) or blue dress (is that Vietnamese?).
