Forget carefully preserving your wedding dress for posterity. Many women are choosing to photograph themselves after the wedding swimming in their dress or even setting it on fire.

On the website Trash the Dress, you can view recently wedded women posing for photographers in front of prisons and rolling in the sand in their dresses. Forgoing the traditional preservation for wedding gowns, these women are choosing to keep only the photographs as memories.

The website states, "You've made a commitment to your husband. He's your one and only true love, right? Then you'll never need the dress again. And no, your daughter won't wear it in 20-30 years. So you have two choices: 1) Suffocate it in plastic and throw it in a closet, 2) Show your husband how committed you are by trashing the dress, and get some great fun pictures while you do it!"

Others are concerned by the violent and potentially misogynistic images that are showcased on the website. Some images show a bride lying on railroad tracks. Another is near a truck that showcases numerous bulletholes.
