The Trash The Dress Phenomenon
WARNING: This is only for brides with what I like to call “bridal balls.” Here’s to the gutsy brides who have started and carry on the trash the dress trend.
Trash the Dress is exactly what it sounds like…brides sacrificing their dress for artsy photos. The rationale behind it is that a wedding dress is really only something you will wear once. (No, your daughter and granddaughter will not have any interest in your dress come their wedding 40 years down the road.)
I think the idea of getting a little dirty, swimming in the ocean, or splatter painting your dress is fantastic. I also, however, know that I will never have the bridal balls to do such a thing. Though, I do plan on wearing my dress frequently after I’m married (to go to the grocery store, pick kids up from school…). Why the hell not?
Check out these incredible photos of brides who are perpetuating this trend….
