hang it up!

so you just spent hundreds of dollars on a wedding dress. or The Dress as i like to call it. (sort of like your groom is The One!) then you spent a couple hundred more on alterations, fancy underoos, your shoes, jewelry, etc. it’s approaching your wedding day and you’ve been thinking about all the details you want your photographer to capture… and if you’ve hired a journalistic-style photographer, one shot that i’d have to guess you want to get is: The Dress hanging on a hanger… in the window, on an armoire, in the closet, etc. am i right? while you’re at it, you might want some photos of your bridesmaids’, mothers’ and flowergirls’ dresses hanging, too?

well, don’t forget pretty hangers!!! you’ve spent ALL that money on the beautiful attire, should it really be photographed hung on those crappy plastic hangers that david’s bridal gave you???

look at these beautiful photographs of these GORGEOUS dresses that all could have looked so much better with nicer hangers. 

 

the good news is, they aren’t that expensive.

head to your local bed bath and beyond to get a set of 10 satin lingerie-style hangers (in ivory or neutrals multi-color pack) for $12.99. oh and don’t forget your 20% off one item coupon!

do you have a container store near you? they carry white or pastel damask satin hangers in packs of 4 for $9.99 (including the kind with the clips for the two piece dresses!)

 

AND you can even get custom hanger covers from online etsy stores like brambleberryrow  for around $15.

for more of a splurge, check these sassy, sexy hangers out from glamour hanger (starting around $28)

the result: your gorgeous dress hung on a hanger for photos that are more bridal… and less garage sale!

and i’d have to guess that you and your bridesmaids will use them afterwards, too.
