Wedding Dress

whats up people?
How you all doing?
i know it's been a while i have been on here, not my fault i have been busy with the ups and downs of life. seriously, i give it to the people who find the time almost ever other day to drop at least few lines on their blog spot. bellanaija (although some thing have changed), exschoolnerd http://madeinnaija.blogspot.com/ and vera http://www.verastic.com/ thumbs up gals you are really doing a wonderful job. anyways to the gist of the day. pls what is the difference between a 99 dollar white with trimmed-red wedding gown and a 4000 dollar white with trimmed red wedding gown?
i was having a conversation with one of my buddies few days ago and i sort of got pissed off because we were gisting and for some reason we started talking about wedding gowns. so i told her that if i could get a good looking gown that looks pretty on me for 99 dollars that i was going to get it instead of spending a ridiculous amount on wedding gown that i was going to wear just for less then a day. then she says "hell no" that it only happens once in a life time and that if she has the money that she wont mind buying the same gown for thousands of dollars. she said she would wear it and she could eventually pass it on to her unborn child. i told her that why would she pass it on to her child that i dont think i will be willing to wear a gown that was worn yrs before i was born that i would rather buy a new one well the converstion got to a point that we just had to change the topic. so if it were you what would you do by a gown for 99 dollars or thousands of dollars or get one that you mother passes down to you?
