In an unusual and exciting event, a Texas mom, her four daughters, and two daughters-in-law decided to don their wedding dresses for a memorable dinner out. This delightful family escapade, captured in photos and videos, has since taken the internet by storm.
Alexis Houston shared a video on May 19th with the caption: “We decided that the most expensive dresses we owned deserved to be worn & enjoyed for more than just one day in our lives.” The video has since garnered an impressive 4.8 million views on Instagram.
The mother of the troupe, Terri Bonni, who has a family of 11 children, revealed in a People interview that the dinner was a rare occasion for the women to spend quality time together without their husbands or toddlers, indulging in food and conversations till late.
The unique concept stemmed from an Instagram reel her daughter saw, where a woman humorously explored the multiple uses of a wedding dress. After their own experience, Ms. Bonni highly recommends the adventure, rating it a “10/10”.
The bridal party chose True Food, located outside of Houston, as their dining destination. Their appearance certainly caused a stir among other diners. “It was hilarious,” Ms Bonni said. They unintentionally stole the spotlight on a particularly busy night when a local high school celebrated graduation. Feeling slightly apologetic, Ms. Bonni mentioned they had no prior knowledge of the graduation event. However, on a lighter note, their spectacle earned them free parking from the amused valet guys.
