Our wedding plans are being affected by Covid-19, so we are brainstorming options. In the event that we decide to elope (legal ceremony) and then have a full wedding and reception later, does anyone have any advice about wearing my wedding dress twice? I have a beautiful fit and flare wedding dress with a long train that I really want to wear at some point, but I'm worried if I wear it for our legal ceremony that it will get dirty or damaged before our big event with our friends and family. Do you think dry cleaning would be sufficient to clean it between our elopement and wedding?
I also like the idea of having two dresses so that each event is special and my fiance/husband is "wowed" by me each time, but definitely want my mom and others to see me in my actual wedding dress even if they aren't at our elopement, and I only wear it for the ceremony itself the second time around and then switch into something else for the reception.
