So...we released a micro site with video, and a photo gallery of an extreme "trash the dress" session. We basically wanted to have some fun and put a theatrical / cinematic twist on things - so why not shoot at a ghost town, incorporate a bottle of scotch, 9mm, and finish it off by setting the dress on fire?
Guess we caused quite a stir - my favorite comment of the night is...
"It's not the trashing of the dress that's the problem - that's her choice, though not a very mature one.
The GUN aimed at the GROOMS THROAT is the huge elephant in the room. Drinking until you get so drunk that you pull a gun and then burn your wedding dress is in poor taste to say the least."
Seriously? Why do people take things so literally? What do you guys think? Did we go too far? LOL

This is very un-cleverly disguised SPAM. You don't care if we think you've "gone too far". You WANT us to think that you've "gone too far".
Anyway, I didn't see the video. Almost 1 minute into it and it hadn't even started yet. Boring and Slow. START the fucking video ffs.

iCan, definitely not disguised as spam - been a member of QBN since '02 and know better. BUT with that said, I appreciate your feedback on the video and agree 100% - going to swap it out.
- ok fine, not spam.iCanHasQBN
- but yeah, nothing more annoying than waiting for a video to begin. 1 minute is an eternity on the internet.iCanHasQBN

you should go all out next time.

Tungsten - we saw that picture before we shot the set. LOL
Truth be told - you have 30 - 45 seconds to shoot a dress on fire. The silk & crinoline goes up insanely fast.

i wonder if that's a burning dress on a mannequin blended with an actual model or what
i'd imagine her hair would go up faster than the dress
- and the dress would melt onto her skin and damn near kill herscarabin

The video didn't work for me but I looked at the photo. what were you trying to achieve? The concept and direction for the shoot seem a bit odd/cliche but maybe I have to watch the video to "get it."
