TRASH THE DRESS

"What's this ?"
You ask.
Our first Trash the Dress.
On our recent trip to Jamaica we had had our bride playing with the idea of trashing her dress.
They had us at the Riu Ochos Rios for a week anyway so what the hell.
We threw in a session on the beach the morning after, of rolling about with some fun and games in the warm Caribbean waters fully dressed as bride and groom.
Traditionally, brides have only been able to wear their expensive dresses on their wedding day......and that was that.
Some have been saving their dresses for their children , sold the dress or possibly turned it into an evening gown and then along came trash the dress.
Now the bride can get even more milage out of that $1000.00+ piece of expensive fabric and show her further commitment to her husband.
We started out with a beach full of people and though not sunny, a pleasant day.
Then it came.....
Rain, rain and more rain.
Hey, no more people on the beach anyway.
We had it ALL to ourselves.
I was soaked, my camera was soaked and what the hey...they were going to get wet anyway, and so we shot...through the downpour.


First the dunking and some great expressions on Lisa's face as she literally took the plunge and then time for some romantic moments as her man held her tight to him and they pressed their lips against each other oblivious of the rain and running makeup.
