Why Brides Are Trashing Their Wedding Dress In Key West

By Peter Estenoz


A new craze of revolutionary wedding photography known as 'trash the dress' is sweeping across the globe. Brides wondering what to do with their dresses after their big day are given the opportunity to say a final farewell to their gown by modeling it in a wild and fun photo shoot. This new fun and creative craze in photography is also known as 'rock the frock', and 'fearless bridal'.

The trash shoots result in a very arty collection of original photographs as the formal elegance of the gown is contrasted with a wild and natural, unconventional setting. The idea of the trash sessions is to effectively trash the gown. The most common locations for this is on the beach where the bride trashes her dress by getting it wet in the water or soiled with mud and sand.

The degree of damage caused to the gown is dependent on the personal choice of the individual. Some may wish to simply enjoy an adventurous, care-free and fun photographic session without worrying about getting the gown dirty or wet. Others may wish to take it to the extreme and dramatically rip, tear, paint, or even burn the dress.

The possibilities are endless when it comes to locations for trashing the frock. As the craze has gained momentum across the globe, photographers are pushing the boundaries of creativity with unconventional locations, from the sublime to the ridiculous. Some of the trash locations used so far have been, derelict building sites, abandoned railway stations and rail tracks, muddy lakes, water fountains, horse ranches and one photographer has even used a garbage dump.

The trashing shoot may be arranged to take place immediately after the ceremony. However, some women may wish to trash their frock several years after their wedding date. A lot of former brides may find that they have only worn their expensive gown for one day only, and wish to dust it off and wear it for one last fun-filled day.

In many cases, the bride is accompanied by her groom who can also get a chance to trash his formal wedding suit. The photo session can be a fun day out and gives the couple a chance to recreate a fun and exciting version of their formal wedding portraits. The craze is thought to have been started in Las Vegas around 10 years ago by a wedding photographer.

More than 150 women took part in the world's first ever mass trash event in the Netherlands. The craze has revolutionized traditional wedding photography and its recent popularity has spread across the world. Scores of brides are now signing up to get a chance at Trashing My Dress In Key West On Smathers Beach.
