To leave your dress on all day or change into something else?

Helenuk, 9 October, 2013 at 10:41 Posted on Honeymoons & Getting Married Abroad 0 7

Hello everyone

I am having a debate with my husband to be regarding wearing my wedding dress all day.

I feel I want to wear it all day as I will only ever wear it once. Even if I am melting! !

We are getting married in the Dominican Republic and the other half says it will be to hot and uncomfortable to wear the dress all day. He feels I should change into something lighter and more comfortable after the ceremony.

What does everyone think? Would

you keep your dress on all day in 30° heat?

Has anyone been married abroad in a dress not designed for destination weddings? Did you cope with the heat?

Thank you everyone

Helen

    I am planning on wearing my wedding dress all day. But we are getting married in Las Vegas so l am assuming that pretty much everywhere will be air conditioned. If it wasn't for this then l would probably be considering changing -l am not very tolerant about being boiling hot.

    I'll be wearing my tea length dress all day too. (New york city in June). And then again for a party back home afterwards! Any excuse to put it back on! Smiley winking

    I don't think I would want to change out of my dress, whatever the weather. I think I would feel as though I wasn't as special without it. Weird I know Smiley sad

    Im getting married in Jamaica (in two weeks eeekk). We get married at 4pm so I will leave my dress on. I will wear it aging for my reception back home as well Smiley smile

    I suppose it depends on the dress though as well....I have a destination dress so its very light x
