We had such a great time taking these photos. I stand by our decision 100% to take photos versus preserve the dress.
And for those who are worried about really trashing the dress, it basically came out of the creek unscathed. I let it dry out at home later and rubbed a few dirty spots out with a rag. Hopefully someone else will be able to enjoy the dress again later.

Your wedding pictures are beautiful!!
I got sick of lugging my wedding dress from home to home and then I did not store it properly so I ended up tossing it. I have all my pictures for my memories and really I would want my daughter to get her own dress and she could use some special jewelry of mine, pearls I wore that day if she wants something from my wedding day!
Thanks, Lucy. We actually got married several months ago (see photos here: http://katystreamsherconsciousness.blogspot.com/2008/10/most-selfish-review-photographer.html) but decided to go ahead and take the dress-trashing plunge, too.
Great idea to loan your daughter special jewelry or other keepsakes versus making her feel like she needs to wear a whole freaking dress she may not care for.
I love these Katy! they are beautiful!

These photos are so awesome, Katy! And I really love the fact that your inspiring other women-folk out there not to be too precious about their wedding dresses (I have yet to buy one, so it is possible that I'm one of those that will keep it wrapped in moth balls for decades- gulp). So awesome!
Asian Cajuns (I don't know which is commenting today!), I'm sure you'll find something fun and funky to do with your dress. :)
These are beautiful. Honestly, you were breath-taking at your wedding, but these pics give the wedding day shots a run for their money.
Thanks, Mb. I know our photographers will be happy to read those compliments. :)
Katy- The pics are breathtaking. The photographers di a fantastic job, not to mention they had great subject matter to work with.
