Wedding dress

2nd wedding to same hubby? In honesty if you want a different srws s then have one, is your decision but if 1st wedding was a different hubby you must have a new one

View quoted message Different hubby. My mum said it's an unnecessary expense

View quoted message I am 2nd time round and there is no way I would use the same dress, not fair on my new hubby to think I am wearing same dress as 1st marriage, which failed miserably! You could go for ahigh street type dress if you want to save on cost or 2nd hand one from the osfam wedding shop but you definitely should have a different dress x

Hi sorry, no not talking about the same dress.

I'd do whatever you want! Lots of ladies go the whole hog for a second marriage. It's your day and you want to feel like a bride after all 😁 do what makes you happy x

View quoted message Thank you.

Thank you for your comments, I've decided that i wanna do everything right this time, right dress, right transport and defo right man lol so im gonna do what i want... thank you again

Do what you want. It may not be your first time getting married, but it's your first time getting married to your new husband. If a nice dress is an 'unnecessary expense' second time around, it's like saying your second marriage isn't as important as the first one. And unless you're expecting your mother to pay for it, whether you have a new dress or not is none of her business.

View quoted message Exactly. Thank you. That's what my partner said we are paying for it.

View quoted message Good for you! Hope your day is everything you want 🙂

Do whatever you like! I'm getting married for the second time next year and my dress cost 3x more than my first. We're also going all out with our dream venue, nice cars, lots of flowers, double the guests.

My first wedding I scrimped and saved and probably knew it my heart it didn't matter because it wouldn't last. This time we're going all out, no expense spared

View quoted message Yeah I'm kinda like that. I've got the venue I want the transport I love and the dress I love and the groom definitely what I want.

View quoted message You should do whatever you want to do! It's your wedding, your decision. If you want to wear a brand new dress, get one! As long as you feel beautiful that's all that matters. Your mum should just be happy you are happy (hope I'm not out of line with this last comment) xx

View quoted message No your not out of line. Thank you

2nd time round here too. My mum said she'd assumed I'd want a dress I could wear again..... she assumed wrong! I don't want to look like a guest or a bridesmaid. I've gone for a non-flamboyant wedding dress... with a train!
Also, as I'm paying for it this time and not mum, I didn't have to worry about how much she would have to spend.
It's your wedding, do whatever makes you happy!

(You can always sell the dress on afterwards if you're worried about the cost.)

View quoted message Thank you.
My mum had the same thought but this wedding is as important as my first was.

Hi
I would have whatever you want. Just because it’s a second wedding it doesn’t make it less special.

You should absolutely have the dress that you want! If it's from a money perspective, you don't have to spend a fortune on a wedding dress anymore. Above all, I think the worst thing would be looking back on your big day and regretting your dress choice if you just went with a 'nice dress'. You also run the risk of someone turning up wearing the same!
