And then you would always be able to have contact with her and possbily "visit" the dress later on. I just don't know though... the other commenters made me remember how much you do love your dress and how fabulous of a dress it really is. What a tough decision!!! I agree though, if you are having doubts you probably aren't ready to part with it... at least not yet.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6548039454456114385.post-79098975282143318062007-11-19T08:13:00.000-06:002007-11-19T08:13:00.000-06:00Okay, this is uncharacteristic of me, since I norm...Okay, this is uncharacteristic of me, since I normally don't consider myself very sentimental. BUT, you loved your dress SO much and it really was gorgeous. Plus, it really is timeless, and you never know... if your daughter is anything like you she quite possibly may want wear it one day at her own wedding. (Mark's cousin is actually having her mom's dress altered a little to update it, but will be wearing it for her wedding, which I think is so cool.) I'd say have it dry-cleaned and hold onto it. (Plus, I think they'll wrap it up in a heroic box, so you'll still free up some closet space and just have to find some shelf (or under the bed) space for it!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08602303092402012347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6548039454456114385.post-38096930997804520232007-11-19T07:20:00.000-06:002007-11-19T07:20:00.000-06:00I totally understand your dilemma!

Now that the wedding is over, I couldn't be happier...except I miss my dress!! Of all the things to miss, that is the last thing I expected, but it really is the only thing I'm sad about - I want to wear it again! So unfortunately, I have no advice for you. But, you better blog when you make a decision!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6548039454456114385.post-53081160932846223872007-11-18T22:12:00.000-06:002007-11-18T22:12:00.000-06:00OK...BONER!!!

I am officially obsessed with checking your blog throughout my day and I am kinda considering doing one myself, except life is boring in Kansas. I think you should sell your dress and purchase the DVD. In the long run, I think you will appreciate the DVD more plus the money would be good. Also, love the christmas cards, definitely a Jules original. Can't wait to get mine. Reading your blog is great. It makes me miss you lots.

I would think, if you're having any doubts, you're not ready to sell! I say keep it, maybe make your photo album cover or a table runner, and have no regrets. It was a stunning dress by the way. :)N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00365725118509670512noreply@blogger.com
