Second Dress or No Second Dress?

Hey Ladies! I am debating in whether or not I should purchase a second dress for the reception. My wedding dress is a fitted mermaid dress with a dramatic bottom and train. It's comfortable enough for me to move it but I don't want it to get in the way. Are any of you getting or have already...

    If I were getting married in Vegas, I'd definitely need something I could party in. Thanks for the feedback my dear.

    Hmmm that's something to think about. Adding a different accessory or taking away some for a more relaxed feel. Thanks.

    Not only is my daughter planning on wearing her wedding dress all day (including the bar after party), but she picked a shorter veil that can be worn all day too.

    She feels it is the dress's one and only day to shine and there was way too much money and time put into it not to.

    I think she would take scissors and cut it shorter right there on the dance floor before taking it off to be boxed up and never seen again. lol

    This response made me smile from ear to ear. Thank you so much. I don't know your daughter, but I can tell I would love her personality. Good luck to you all.

    My wedding dress is the most expensive piece of clothing I own so I will wear it all night and get my monies worth lol. I was thinking of a second dress but to me doesn't make much sense since my reception and ceremony are at the same location.

    I considered it at first, having a second dress, but when I found my dream dress I was like 'I´m not weareing anything else than this'. However If you think that´s something really want, and you can be confortable with a second one, go ahead. You will be a bride to remember Smiley heart

    Thank you so much. Yeah the more I think about it, I'm probably going to stick with one, especially since I'm close to being over budget anyways Lol.
