wedding dress ball of tackyness

I'm not sure on renewing vows.... I'm just not sure, ask me in twenty years time and I'll have a different opinion, but right now I'm sitting on the fence on that one.
.
But you can't! There may be people reading this who are waiting for your permission to go ahead and renew their vows!
Seriously, chill out - if people want to go out in their wedding frock for an evening it really is their business and their decision to make. I don't think they will be doing it as a personal affront to you!
This kind of thing is totally about personal choice - some people might find it rather tasteless to spend thousands and thousands on a wedding (which it sounds like your clients do) when there are people out there struggling to feed and house themselves, but it's nothing to do with them - each to their own!0 -
I think it sounds like a bit of fun!
I probably wouldn't go unless all my close girlfriends were going too and we were having a laugh but I really can't see the harm in it.
OP, maybe you need to lighten up a little?
There's a world of difference between tackiness and having some fun. Personally, I'm not snobbish enough to cast aspersions on someone else's taste. Live and let live!
PS my friends and I dressed up as Burlesque Gothic Angels for my hen night and we had a simply marvellous time! LOL0 -

As for wearing a wedding dress again, it is exactly that, your wedding dress. A one day dress that reminds you of your one day, I just think its rather odd that someone would want to dress up in a wedding dress after having all the fuss over them already.
er - maybe they do it to remind them of their one day?!0 -

Yep I completely agree, its shouldn't be about the money, thats why I'm not spending hardly anything on mine. (Tack free event may I add with the exception being the hog roast but I don't think thats tacky)
This is why I try not to get involved with weddings and try to stick to the production side of weddings, (production being the technical) people have such poor taste and I can't say anything at work, it pains me.I run an event management company, I put on events, I go to events, if I don't know anything about events - its not worth knowing!:j:j:jNegotiate, Negotiate, and Negotiate again.:j:j:j0 -

Can you imagine turning up to this, to find another woman in the same dress but looking 'just' enough better than you, to ruin your evening :eek::rotfl:Ahahah got my signature removed for claiming MSE thought it was too boring :rotfl:0

I'm a lady last time I checked. And no, I'm not married YET (3 months to go), and no, I'm not rich (I've plowed what little money I have into my company), and yes, I am a complete and utter snob in some people's eyes (including my mothers and my own), but hey, I don't mind 'cos thats what I get paid to do. Sort the chaff from the wheat.
I can't think of anything worse than going to this event, I mean, I've worked on BAD events before, and trust me when I say bad (imagine a Father Ted episode then multiply it by a million) but I do love the idea of a scrap in the toliets!!!I run an event management company, I put on events, I go to events, if I don't know anything about events - its not worth knowing!:j:j:jNegotiate, Negotiate, and Negotiate again.:j:j:j0
