Would You Change into a Reception Dress?

I had always thought that I would stick with my wedding dress for the duration of my wedding day, and I still intend to do so, but this dress has got to be one of the best reception dress changes of.all.time.

The dress is by Jenny Packham whom I have recently become a huge fan of.  Like the bride, I too bought a headpiece from her line for my wedding day!

We must add that this wedding took place in and English Castle and the bride's name is Phillipa because both of those elements are all the rage these days (go Royal Wedding!).  


What do you think?  Would you go with a couture gown for reception?  What about as your wedding gown itself?


Have a delightful day,
