reclaiming wife

Ladiessssss (and a few gentleman),

As you may know, The Sisterhood of The Traveling Dress is one of my favorite projects in APW history ever-ever. It makes me so d*mn grateful that I’m writing this site, and that you all are the kindest, smartest, funniest women ever (and no, I’m not writing this drunk).

The Sisterhood of The Traveling Dress got it’s first press mention in an article about recycling in the Atlanta-Journal Constitution this week. I had the surreal experience of doing an interview from Rome, as the evening bells were chiming outside my window. I wasn’t interrupting my vacation for much, but you bet your *ss I interrupted it for The Sisterhood.

Thanks ladies. You make my life better every day.

    I’ve retreated into mostly lurking status, but as the very first APW dress giver, I am so proud of this!

    I can’t wait until I’ve finished wearing my dress (again! ah, the perks of having a partner from another continent…) and I can offer it here. This is seriously the coolest wedding-related thing to do that I’ve found, and those of you who have participated (or cheered them on) are awesome!

    Flashback: When I first bought my dress, I immediately assumed I’d try to sell it to earn back a little cash after all the craziness was over. It’s a relatively common and well-loved dress, so I figured that it would sell pretty easily.

    Flashforward: now, three weeks out from my wedding, and after a year of reading APW, and I cannot WAIT to join the Sisterhood of the Traveling Dress. The money I’d get back from selling it is NOTHING compared to the money, stress, and time I could save for someone else, and NOTHING compared to the joy and grace I can pass along.

    Thanks, Meg, for helping us build this community. It’s pretty kickass.
