Over the years, I’ve worked with hundreds of brides who lit up at the idea of a dramatic wardrobe change—and just as many who needed a little reassurance that it was worth it. This guide answers the big question behind the question: not just can you have two dresses, but should you?

Whether you're debating a sleek reception look, dreaming of a ceremony ballgown, or just looking for that "wow" moment twice in one day, this breakdown will help you weigh the pros, the price, and the payoff.
