    I will be wearing at least 4. Ceremony dress, reception dress and two traditional Cambodian gowns.

    I'm only wearing the one. I would rather put the money toward something else plus I really love my dress and it's comfortable enough to spend the night in. We aren't having an extremely long reception so I don't see the point in wasting the time to change when I could be having fun with our guests.

    I'll have FOUR! A gown for my wedding ceremony/mass, a Vietnamese ao dai for my reception, a midi-length dress for dancing, and then a jumpsuit for the after-party.

    I scoured the internet for deals though, so the total cost of my outfits (not including shoes, accessories, or alterations) is still under $2000.

    One dress but it has a detachable train so it looks like a whole new dress when you take it off.

    Depends on how heavy my wedding dress feels and if it is comfortable. If it is not comfortable then I'll be looking for an alternative for my reception

    I will only be wearing 1, I fell in love with my dress and there is no way I'm going to be changing out of it (that is, until after the wedding....)

    One!! Why spend so much money on your dream dress to change into a different one? I understand if it's heavy and big and you want to be able to dance, but I personally wouldn't buy a second dress. I love mine!!!

    Only one. Spent way too much money to not wear it as long as possible!

    I just have one dress! I'm not changing because my dad bought the dress and I want to wear it as long as possible

    Just one. I will never understand the need for another dress. Seems like a really unnecessary expense.

    Thankfully just the one-- its 1550 before alterations... and my alterations are more than just adjusting length ( and bust stuff) there will be the adding of sleeves, beading and putting more of an emphasized deep v-neckline with illusion lace.

    One. It was already difficult for me to spend money on something I'd wear for one night, I couldn't get one for just the ceremony.
