In a heartwarming display of friendship, a woman from Kansas has proven that bridesmaid dresses can indeed have a second life—even if they’re two decades old. Many of us have heard the classic line, “You’ll definitely wear this again,” when attending weddings, only to find ourselves rolling our eyes at the thought. However, one creative mom and children’s author, Lisa Carter, decided to embrace her past by showcasing her bridesmaid attire from 20 years ago.
On her anniversary, Lisa shared a nostalgic photo from her wedding day, captioning it with, “These two lovebirds are celebrating 22 years of marital bliss! My apologies for those dresses, ladies.” While friends chimed in with the usual congratulatory messages, one former bridesmaid took a different approach.
Her friend, Jenna Lee, instantly replied, “Sorry about the dresses? I wear mine all the time!” She then shared a series of snapshots of herself in the deep red gown while partaking in everyday activities like doing laundry, watering her garden, and even curling up with a book. Talk about making the most of it!
Jenna shared with Home Insemination Kit, “Though Lisa and I don’t see each other often, we have a blast commenting on each other’s posts. We’re currently planning a fun author visit to local schools together. I think a reading of ‘The Adventures of Glamour’ would be perfect in Lisa’s wedding gown!”
Lisa remarked, “It turns out, not everyone in 1995 was thrilled about wearing a long, off-the-shoulder gown in a burgundy brocade fabric that looked a lot like a Thanksgiving tablecloth. Those dresses were handmade by our moms, grandmas, and some very enthusiastic seamstresses.”
It’s always amusing to look back on fashion choices from years gone by, and while Lisa’s dress was quintessentially ’90s, Jenna clearly appreciates the charm it brings. Jenna mentioned that her mom kept all of her bridesmaid dresses, and she often pulls one out to join whatever family activity is happening, treating it as totally normal.
When Jenna posted her photos, Lisa responded with glee: “This right here is the best anniversary present ever!”
