Where Does Your Wedding Dress Hang Out?

Where Does Your Wedding Dress Hang Out?

This morning, Mr. Star and I were awakened by the doorman buzzing up to tell us that the post office was delivering a package we needed to sign for.

Where Does Your Wedding Dress Hang Out? : wedding accessories gift ideas Img 458 Copy

The package was pretty unassuming, except for the cute little note written in red that said, “do not bend”.

But when I opened it up, I was thrilled to find my latest completely-unneccessary-but-totally-adorable-anyways wedding purchase: the wedding dress hanger.

I have thought for a long time that I would not be participating in the special hangers for wedding dresses trend, but when reader ejs4y8 posted a thread on the board with these adorable little works of dress hanger art, I knew I had to have one.

Etsy seller lilafrances makes these hangers with a variety of sayings (or pretty much anything short enough to fit in there!) and I just think they’re so precious.

This was the style of hanger that I originally fell in love with, but because of last name changing complications (which I will blog about at some point!), I decided to stick with our first names.

Are you doing anything special for the hanger for your wedding dress? Have you ever originally decided not to follow a wedding trend and then changed your mind?

Oh my gosh, I love this! And I’m SOOOO happy I didn’t see this before our wedding, since my poor credit card was already getting quite the workout.

OoOOoOoO please let me know how it holds up with your dress! My dress is so heavy that I wonder if the hanger is sturdy enough. But no matter, GREAT find!!

I bought one of these too, and while it is amazingly, incredibly cute there is no way in heck it is going to hold up my wedding gown for even a couple of hours, I think it would snap. Mine is a satin ball-gown-ish with built in lining, pretty heavy. If you have a lighter, smaller gown, it will work.

I also bought one of these! It is really cute. I am a little nervous it won’t hold my dress though.

I had one of those exact packages arrive in my mailbox a few weeks ago! I got three with the heart shape on them; one for me and one for each of my bridesmaids. They’re so cute! Love yours, too!

I bought one for the sole purpose of looking cute in pictures. Even though I have a lighter dress, I still don’t expect to hang it all morning with it - that’s what the store hanger’s built for! I intend to replace the ugly one w/ the cute one for the photographer, and then take it off the hanger and put my dress on.

I have one! And I love it and hubby loves it! It’s now hanging in our walk in closet (read teeny tiny spare bedroom turned into a closet) with my bracelets hanging off of it.
