Their weddings dresses could have hung in a closet, never to be worn again. But that just wouldn’t be as much fun. "Trash the dress" or "rock the frock" are new terms for a trend that’s's spreading rapidly thru the web.

Trash the dress, often referred to as intrepid bridal or rock the frock, is a kind of wedding photography that contrasts sublime clothing with an environment in which it is out of place. It is in general shot in the style of fashion and glamour photography. Customarily brides decide to have footage taken on a beach, but other locations include town streets, rooftops, rubbish dumps, fields, and abandoned buildings.

Some sources claim that the trend was originally started in 2001 by Vegas wedding photographer John Michael Cooper. However, the concept of destroying weddings dresses has been used in Hollywood symbolically since at least October 1998 when Meg Cummings of the show nightfall Beach ran into the ocean in her wedding dress after her wedding was badly interrupted. No longer are weddings dresses remaining castaways in trunks, closets or basement storage rooms. Women are donning their weddings dresses again and trashing them in the most unusual of ways.

It’s the type of idea that brought 3 best buddies to a Peterborough car wreckers yard. With their hair styled, makeup done and a professional snapper to boot, the 3 previous Peterborough ladies put on their white dresses and descended upon McIntyre Auto Wreckers on Keene Rd.

Sonya Jamieson, thirty, Shannon Pickard, 33, and Deanna Chisholm, 33, wanted "one more go" with their weddings dresses. "How often do 3 best friends get to wear their weddings dresses together?" Pickard announced. The 3 weren’t trashing their dresses, but they were racking up some dear dry cleaning bills walking around in the mud. The concept was about reliving their weddings days and getting another use of the dresses before the 3 move onto different chapters in their lives, Jamieson said.

Amid the posy photographs and puffed-up bios that involve the wedding statement section of sunday Times Style Section, there had been an engaging article on the rising trend of supposed Trash the Dress wedding photography.

In some of the weddings, cost of wedding table centerpieces becomes more than the bride’s bouquet. It happens when the brides want to outshine their friends in this aspect by creating costly beautiful items. Florists love to use these opportunities to display their design talents and show use of latest accessories and flowers and submit a fat bill at the end of the reception.

So before deciding on the idea of wedding table centerpieces, you will have to consider a few things. You must first decide on your budget and theme of your wedding. A few more important things that need to be considered are what kind of atmosphere you are going to create and secondly, the size of the tables you are going to use. Size of the table is very important because you cannot place a big centerpiece on a small table. You must have place for plates and glasses.

If you find decoration with flowers expensive, then you can go for colorful leaves or imitation flowers found in different colors in departmental stores. Fresh herbs can also be an alternative to expensive flowers as they look good and some of them smell more beautiful than flowers. You can collect herbs of different colors and leaves and mix them and place it in a glass or a vase. You can also make simple decorations with flowers. You can buy colored sand or foam from floral stores and keep them in a glass or a vase and place a cheap single flower like hydrangea in it and keep the entire thing at the center of the table.

Use of candles is another attractive option as they are found in different colors and can go with any wedding budget, if properly decorated. Candle centerpieces can make the wedding atmosphere very romantic, if it is an evening wedding and the wedding hall is large and can be decorated with little greenery. You can also go for colorful lanterns that have a simple tea light inside. You can place one such lantern on each table. If the wedding reception hall is dimly lit, you can create a wonderful romantic atmosphere using those lanterns.

You can have cheap but beautiful containers from discount stores. It can be cheap pottery to bright colored bags to simple glasses that will hold the main display item. Color of the container must go along with the main display item and the theme of the wedding. You can get some mini pails and they can be used as table numbers.

If you are planning a beach wedding, you must go for a bright beach centerpiece. You can choose sunflower as it has got a bright and vibrant look. Alternatively, you can put stick shells inside ceramic pots and place them on each table. It is better to serve guests in long glasses and offer them a shell as a gift. They will carry it home and remember your wedding
