***TTD (Trash the Dress) Thread - please post all of your questions here!

I say go for it, it's a great way to have some amazing pics that you aren't worried about exactly how your hair and make-up is and if something has smudged the dress. They are almost more care-free, and you can make them anything they want, they don't need to be super provocative and racy.

There is already a thread with a somewhat similar situation:

Hi

 

I am having mine same day too due to a lot of things. We are doing it before our ceremony so we only have to get ready once! I wanted to be in my dress the whole night so no other time would work. Hope it works out for you!

[Love3]

just do it, at least after you won't say "damn wish I did it" once in a life time (hopefully) lol

Yah, I guess you are right - I dont want to have regrets... and it's only money right??

I am so glad we did a TTD shoot - we did take some in the water, but we took a lot in some other locations first - on a pier, on shells, walking in town, etc. - I think those pictures are the best and are so unique.. Everyone we show those pictures to is amazed at how great they are.. Your TTD can be whatever you want it to be and is about having fun and getting the types of shots you both want.. But I would definitely say - Yes, go for it!!!

As for after the water, I went and rinsed off in the shower (with the dress on), then hung it up and let it air dry. It dried in about 2 days and except for some dirt on the bottom, it actually looks great..

I agree, if I were to suggest a time, I would suggest first thing in the morning with a different dress. I think after your ceremony, and photos you might run into a time crunch or maybe not want to leave your reception to do more photos. You can usually find a cheaper 2nd dress for the TTD session, wear your hair down and then just get ready once for the wedding.

you can do a little same day and the rest next day.

cheers,
