This is the case for someone I know. One of her friends had a beautiful wedding dress that she didn’t want to go to waste, so she just gifted it to her as an early wedding present. After her wedding, she did the same, passing it on. No telling where that dress is now, but I like to imagine it’s still traveling the world, one wedding at a time. Also, both this woman and her friend have been married to their respective partners for over a decade, so I assume it’s at least going adequately, if not well.
