Trash the dress

The day after our wedding we did something a little crazy! In keeping with a new wedding trend, we did what's called "Trashing the dress." It essentially encourages brides to embrace the fact that you will never wear your wedding dress again, your daughter probably won't wear it, and you paid WAY too much to only get one day of wear out of it.

In that light, why not do something really crazy to it? Kyle and I decided to head to Riverfront Park in downtown Spokane to play in the Rotary Fountain. It was a pretty early morning, but it was totally worth it!

It was a beautiful sunny morning, and we got soaking wet! My huge dress weighed at least 20 pounds when it was wet, but it was so fun and liberating! People gathered around to watch as our photographer and videographer documented our adventure. We felt like celebrities!

We walked back to the hotel alone, however, which, considering we were only wearing bathrobes and carrying soaking wet wedding attire, was a little awkward!
