What should I do with my wedding dress if I call off my wedding?
Wedding dress to me is probably one of the most challenging things that a bride has to do. The guy and the dress are pretty much the first thing that a bride gets besides her engagement ring and pretty much the wedding date and what have you. I think that most people will say that the dress is so important to me that I need to make sure it's the dress I want and I'm willing to spend more on it than anything else. So realistically, it's going to be a huge financial burden for you to get rid of the wedding dress so a couple really of good options for people is definitely call the wedding dress shop or the designer. If it's a custom dress, see how far along they are. If they have only purchased the fabric maybe they can use the fabric for another event. Maybe they can just sell the fabric to you and you can use it for something else. Maybe you can burn it if that's ceremonial to you. Another thing you can do is contact consignment shops. There are lots of brides that need to get a dress for cheap. So contact a consignment shop and once the dress sells you'll get some money from it. You can also donate it. There are many brides who unfortunately can't afford a dress and if you donate it at least you're helping someone and your loss is someone else's gain. You can also sell it on eBay. I have a lot of clients that sell wedding dresses even after the wedding on eBay. A couple of people have asked me if they decide to cancel the wedding should they keep the dress or alter the dress in some way. I say no; you don't want any connection to any part of the wedding. You don't want it to be a joke, you don't want it to be part of a running gag, you just want to get rid of it.
