Hey all... I was just hoping for some opinions on wearing my dress and my husband wearing his tux... we are having a cocktail party to share our elopement with family and friends. Thoughts? TIA!

    You spent all that money on it... If you can wear it more than once, why not??

    We're not eloping, but because FH and I are from different countries and we're getting married in the US, we're also having a cocktail party about a month later for those that can't make it. Since it's not gonna have all of the "wedding" stuff, I'm not wearing my wedding dress again. I'm wearing this champagne colored evening gown. FH is gonna wear his tux again though. It's really up to you and the formality of the party I think.

    Wear your dress! My friend wore her dress at her post elopement party, and it was held in a pretty non-fancy restaurant (equivalent to a "Kelsey's") and it was fine.
