On Curvy Girl Guide, I recently wrote about the lovey dovey relationship you can have with your wedding dress.

While walking down the aisle in my dress was fun, the second time I wore it was a blast.

My friend Ali recently had her Trash the Dress pictures taken (click here for a sneak peak!), and they inspired me to hunt down the shots I had taken a few years ago.

I had just had Wyatt, and worked my butt off to get back in shape.  (I love you vodka and diet pills.)

When the dress finally zipped again, I headed out to the farm across the street from my grandfather’s house to have a little fun with my photographer.

Unfortunately, my dress was ruined a year later when my basement flooded.  I was devastated, and used all the salvageable lace to make Gigi’s baptism gown.

I’d give anything to have it back, to pass down to my daughter…you know…so she could roll her eyes, deem it completely out of style, and refuse to wear it in favor of a see through dress with a bubble train and goat hoof earings.

Or whatever brides are wearing in the future.
