I want to keep my wedding dress forever.
Or at least let my daughter wear it.

Ditto. But I can't see myself wearing a traditional wedding dress that I could trash afterward. If I ever get married, I'd prefer to do it in jeans, with Elvis officiating. |

I'd want to keep it. I am not going to spend thousands on it, just a couple hundred but it would be sentimental. I would even hesitate throwing the garter because I'd want to keep it. The thought of destroying the dress is very sad.

Its nice to keep a souvenir from a good memorable day...(if it was) also its a total waste of money. WHy dont you just sell it to a shop that rents dresses to others!! I think if you dont need it might as well get somethign out of it... not TRASH it! thats a total waste.

Absolutly not! That dress will have entirely too much sentimental value since it was passed down from my grandmothr to my mother and now I plan on wearing it and giving it to my future daughter/ daughter in law.

What would that say about how they feel about their marriage?

the point of it is that they're so commited to their husbands that they aren't going to need the dress again (for remarriage). |

Mine didn't even cost very much (as wedding dresses go), but there's still no way in hell.
Aside from sentimental value, I had the dress made specifically for me, and it's a one-of-a-kind. I'd HATE for the seamstress to know I'd gone and ripped it to shreds after she spent so much time on it.  |

That sounds okay. Otherwise it just sits on a hanger and takes up space forever.You still have pictures and memories. I was recently a bridesmaid in a wedding and I threw the dress in the trash the next day.

Well, I wouldn't plan to go out and purposefully trash it. But, who knows...

Good lord, no! That's such a waste of money and the time of whoever made it. As for the argument that it shows commitment, I would say give it away; taking delight in trashing it just has the wrong tone.
