{Poll} One Wedding, Two Dresses:: Love it or Leave it?
Chelsea Clinton donned two beautiful Vera Wang dresses custom made for her wedding; one for the ceremony and another for the reception. The ceremony gown, which featured a ballgown skirt with laser cut organza and beaded waistline, was exchanged for a tulle gown with a criss-crossed back and black ribbon belt.
Two wedding dresses allows the bride to wear a tradtional dress for the ceremony and choose something lightweight and less formal for the reception.
Traditionally, however, the bride wears same dress for both the ceremony and reception.

leave it! you only get to wear the dress for such a short period of time anyways. a lot of people say it's because their dress is to heavy to dance in, but i would vote to just buy a non-heavy dress to begin with :)
Leave it! Completely agree with Ms. Belle on Heels.
I actually do not live the idea, however at the wedding I was just at on Saturday I was thinking how miserable I would be if I had to dance in that huge dress all night!
Personally, I would leave it, but if you found something truly appropriate for the reception and it fit into your budget, then that may be fine.
I would totally leave it. Its your wedding day, you should be wearing your wedding dress. People should try and stay away from the "poofy hard to move in" dresses anyway.
I like the idea! I'm a huge salsa dancer and would want something short and more party-like for the reception. But I would still want something more formal for the ceremony. Why not?
