wedding leftovers

according to hubby's colleague that somewhere out there there's this tradition of freezing and keeping the wedding cake for 1 year, and to be consumed by the couple on their one-year anniversary. It is said that by doing so, you will enjoy longlasting marital bliss. myth? perhaps. anyhow im still keeping mine lest its true! :P ( Read more... )

wow! u froze the cake? will u really eat it after a year?

I know there's kinda like a "gown preservation" whereby u can send the dress in for cleaning and keep the dress away in an acid-free archival box, are u going that? If I'm not wrong, by doing so, you will only need to air/dust the gown once a year or something, instead of the hassle of doing it once a month..

I'm sure you've properly cleaned the gowns. So now, it's just having to store the gowns in acid-free box and acid-free tissue paper, (which I think should be sold in those scrapbooking stores etc) and keep them away from direct sunlight & moisture.

There are DIY kits sold here too...just googled and I found http://cgi.ebay.com/Ex-Large-Wedding-Gown-Preservation-Kit-BridalStorage_W0QQitemZ200235760404QQihZ010QQcategoryZ1265QQtcZphotoQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1742.m153.l1262. Let me know if you need help getting them. :)
