Receiving an invitation for my aunt’s whirlwind wedding left me confused on what to wear at her wedding. My aunt is really special for me and I could not miss out on her wedding no matter if it was on such a short notice. Getting a dress to wear at a wedding these days has become such a tiresome task. It requires days and days of searching and then going for measurements and fits. Needless to say, I did not have the time and had to find the perfect dress to wear as the wedding soon.

Then my mother came up with a wonderful suggestion that I can wear my gorgeous prom dress to my aunt’s wedding.  My prom was one of the most exciting nights of my life, and my beautiful dress, from Prom Dress Finder, was a glamorous off-shoulder mini with a train and embellishment details all over. My boyfriend had said that I looked beyond stunning, and I even went on to win the Prom Queen title. I loved my mother’s suggestion and went on to wear my prom dress to my aunt’s wedding. I even shared the idea with my friends and all of them agreed that opting for a prom dress to wear at a wedding really is chic and trendy. Prom dresses are stylish and are the right amount of glitz and glamour to wear as a guest at the wedding or even a bridesmaid without taking away the limelight and attention from the bride.

A lot of young girls make the mistake of buying dresses that make them look years above their age, and so to look cute and young one must seriously think of selecting a prom dress for a wedding ceremony. I had all praises by everyone for my outfit at my aunt’s wedding and the bride even specially asked me to share pictures of my ensemble for her wedding photos.

My aunt had not hired a photographer for the wedding, instead used a wedding photo sharing service called Wedding Photo Swap in which all the guests uploaded the photos taken by them on that app. During the wedding ceremony, a live visual timeline was created with all the photos being uploaded by the guests. It was such a beautiful thing to have been done! My aunt had also created albums so the guests added the photos as per category. A gorgeous collection of the décor, the bride and groom, the guests and more was created on the service.

I did remember to upload my photos wearing my prom dress too on the wedding photo sharing service, and to my surprise, my aunt had selected one of my pictures too for the printed album of her wedding. It was such a unique idea to not have a photographer for the wedding, rather use the photo sharing service. I was also told that the bride and groom had also used the service for pictures of their bachelor and bachelorette parties, and ended up with an amazing collection of memorable pictures of their big day!
