Dying my wedding dress so I can wear it again?

sheeppappar

Hello.. just hoping for a bit of help

I've just got engaged :j and am starting to think about my wedding.. prob next summer (we are just having a registry office + then a nighttime do so should be able to manage it in the timescale)
Anyway I would like to wear a white or cream dress on the day but then was wondering about dyeing it so it can be worn again. It won't be a full-on meringue type dress but might treat myself to something from Coast or somewhere like that.
Does anyone know anywhere I could get it dyed afterwards? Or has anyone done this themselves successfully?

thanks in advance! xx

Hello there and congratualtions on your engagement!

I'm afraid I can't help with where to go to get a dress dyed apart from perhaps your local dressmaker or seamstress.

If you are going this route though you would need to buy a dress made of natural fibres as they will take the dye much better than synthetic.

HTH!
