A wedding dress is one of the most special and emotional things you can possibly wear in your lifetime, and it’s no surprise that many people hang onto this well after their wedding is over.
Some even choose to pass their dress down to future generations; that’s how meaningful it can be.
This woman’s sister had her wedding four years ago, and her dress was absolutely stunning. Her sister had the dress custom-made for her by a tailor she adored.
Several months ago, her sister’s husband was forced to take a break from work due to his health, and they have been struggling financially ever since.
Around that time, her sister decided she had no choice but to sell her beloved wedding dress. She listed it for sale on a second-hand website, as she and her husband really did need the money.
“I knew it obviously had a huge sentimental value,” she explained. “She was even planning on having it shortened so that she could wear it again for their anniversary.”
“She was selling it reluctantly— I could see tears in her eyes when she told us. What she doesn’t know is I created an account on the website and bought it anonymously.”
“I had a bonus last month, and I couldn’t see a better way to spend my money.”
She’s going to take her sister’s wedding dress to the tailor who created it and request the changes her sister planned.
