Wedding Dress Trashing New Trend

Brides are taking the plunge into rivers, oceans, lakes and fountains for outlandish wedding pictures.

Most of them said their wedding dresses are just taking up space. They want to put them to good use for some edgy pictures in their photo album.

Brides tend to be picky about where they sit and what they do while getting pictures taken before their wedding, so trashing their dress after the honeymoon allows them to get the pictures they really want.

Dress trashing has become popular in the last year, with brides diving underwater or even rolling in the dirt.

But women are not the only ones getting down and dirty. Their husbands are joining in the fun, too.

Although the name suggests these women are trashing their dresses, it's not totally true.

Most of the dresses can be taken to the dry cleaners and come back looking just like new.
