To many people this may seem strange but after attending the school for eight years I could not wait until I got to be the girls walking out the front doors of the school in a long white dress. As the high school I attended was from girls ages pre-k through 12 it is a great tradition that all of the graduating seniors receive a beautiful bouquet of red roses from a second grader on your way into the ceremony. The parade out of the front of the school was truly a bridal fashion show with only two girls having a duplicate dress. Take a look at the photos from that day:
Congratulations to my entire graduating class! I can not believe it has been years since I have seen some of you and I hope everyone is doing well!
Have you ever been to a wedding style graduation?

I wore a white dress under my cap and gown, but it wasn’t wedding style. How cool!

Hahaha nope, never even heard of such a thing but I kind of love the idea for graduation. I celebrated mine in boring school uniform and sadly in a boring music hall compared to this McMansion stunner.
So envious!

Hey Kelly! I’m Ginny a new follower! What a cool post. I immediately clicked it to check it out because I’m getting married in 9 months. How sweet. Did you get it from an actual bridal salon? If so, I’m sure the process was super fun.
I already picked out my dress and it was an AWESOME experience!! 🙂
I have never heard of girls wearing long white dresses to a graduation. What a special tradition!

my high school had all the girls wearing the exact same white dress (we were given a pattern) and we could choose between the shiny or matte side of the fabric. lol. the boys had to wear white tuxedos. its weird but ended up being kind of fun despite all of our complaining.

What a great idea! Love your choice of dress – the most beautiful one! x
Michael says
That’s crazy. I can’t imagine having a graduation ceremony like that. My only issue with mine was that it was alphabetical order and I was THE last person in our class – Zosh. I did get a standing ovation though – it was finally over 😉
Rachel says
I’ve never had to do this, but have had friends who did! White is such a pretty color for formal wear
Alyssa says
You look gorgeous, and that house is amazing! Where did you go to school? A private school near me, Ms. Porters, had the same tradition!
Jessica says
I did this too! Except we all had to wear the same exact dress and white elbow length gloves. Luckily the dress wasn’t awful but it was totally white, floor length and of course “modest”…Takes me back to the good old days of my youth…
Sam says
This is so interesting! It must be so great to be able to wear a wedding gown for something other than your own wedding, love the idea! You look so stunning sweety, love the beautiful dress you picked out.Thanks for stopping by.. Hope you have a positive and productive week ahead!
