I just read an article online in a newspaper about a poor bride in quebec that drowned while doing a trash the dress photoshoot in ber wedding dress while getting photographed at a waterfall. Her photographer tried to save her but her dress was too heavy and she was dragged under. makes me feel sick.

I know, so sad 🙁 I feel for the photographer too, imagine having to live with that (not his fault of course). This is a tragic case, but a good safety warning to others

Ok. It’s official. I won’t go near any body of water while wearing my dress. That’s horrifying.

This one makes me feel sick, too. Her poor new husband, family, and friends — they all just celebrated their marriage, and now they are mourning her death. Devastating.

I must say, I have just recently learned of the TTD trend and I was always curious what the point was of spending $ on a photo shoot to trash an expensive dress, but I digress… This is just a horrifying story. Awful.

It’s sad. While I may get flamed for this, it was also a horrible lack of common sense on her part. Most wedding dresses are heavy to begin with, let alone trying to swim in it where you can’t even touch the bottom. I feel for her husband and family, but this was a terrible accident where some common sense would have prevented it.

Yeah, this is terrible. I thought that she fell down a waterfall – wasn’t that what was originally reported?
Still though, just sad.
I guess she got caught up in the moment and didn’t realize that she could be weighed down by the dress. So sad.

That is so sad. Her poor family, especially her husband.
