Second Dress for Wedding Reception

Chelsea, on May 2, 2018 at 9:47 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 6
Have any of you purchased a second dress to wear to your reception so you will be slightly more comfortable? I'm toying with the idea of wearing a slightly more comfortable dress for the reception than wearing my original dress for the ceremony.

    I purchased one because I got such a good deal on it..was $250...and then when I went in for my alterations I just fell even more in love with my wedding dress and cannot imagine changing out of it in that day..so..now I've decided I will wear the other dress another time, maybe for my birthday (Halloween) or anniversary or something!

    No, no second dress for me. Wasn’t in the budget, I did a lot of research on the dress I wanted and made sure I could sit and dance in it and nothing was fall in down, etc. plus, I have a hard time with a second dress and spending the money when I will only be wearing 1 for 20 mins and the other for a few hours. Just my opinion and I love me dress so much, I just want to wear it all the time.

    I agree. It seems backward to spend the most time, money and energy on the dress that you'll wear for the shortest time.

    I have a friend who got married and had gotten a dress like super cheap when a company went out of business, its more of a reception dress. She gave it to me tags still on it, because she will never use it. I am having it altered just in case, but I don't plan on changing out of my beautiful dress.

    I picked a dress with needing it to be comfy for the reception and going out on the strip in Vegas afterwards. FH and I don't want to have to go back to the hotel to change and I want to be able to wear my dress as much as I can
