After the wedding dress is preserved, what else is there to do to preserve your beautiful wedding? Well, the pictures of course! We all want to keep those beautiful pictures, well... beautiful. There's only so much space on your walls, so most likely, you won't be able to frame and hang all of them. So, what do you do?

Scrapbooking is probably the best thing to happen to weddings. Wedding photography is so expensive, not to mention all the pictures from the guests! You can take all of those pictures and put them into a scrapbook! It's a perfect way to preserve those memories how you want.




The above book is amazing for scrapbooking. If you are new to the art, or don't have much time, the premade pages are amazing. They have insert spots for your pictures and space for you to write about the day. What more could a busy newly-wed want?

Other options for your wedding dress

Your wedding is over and you're not sure what you want to do with your dress. You've read the previous posts about wedding dress preservation, but want to know your other option. So what options are out there?

There are many options if you want to do something different with your wedding dress. One thing that a lot of people do is use their dress for material for another project. What type of things can you make out of your wedding dress?

• A christening gown for your baby (or a family member or friend's baby).


• Make it into a quilt that you can use frequently.


• Make it into pillows.


• Almost anything else you can think of.

There are many other options when making a decision on what to do with y our wedding dress after the wedding. You can:

• use it for a halloween costume for youself or a loved one.


• dye it and use it for a formal dress for other occassions. This usually works best with a very simple gown.


• donate it to a charity.


• donate or sell it to a consignment shop (think GoodWill).

If you are attached to your wedding dress, the best option is still wedding dress preservation. Then you still have your dress available and able to be seen.
