I think every bride wants to be photographed in a bib at her reception. It’s like a fairy tale; the Princess and the Baby Back Ribs. Then at the end of the night, you can gather your bridesmaids around and throw a bucket of cole slaw.
i love the way this sterling white bib sets off the yellow-ocity, thanks to time and cigarette smoke, of memaw’s wedding gown circa 1927.
seriously. if you’re not old enough to enjoy your reception dinner and NOT ruin your dress/tux, perhaps there are some age of consent laws that need to come into question.
Passing on the stained bib as “something old” seems incredibly vile. Plus the something old is supposed to be worn when you are getting married, not put on at the reception when you are eating.
i suppose it could be “upcycled” into a slutty-esque halter..i’m no seamstress, but slap on a strap on each side at the bottom and you then have “something new”- if we’re keeping with the wedding theme thing…
Perhaps it doesn’t make sense to you or me, but the seller is from Phoenix. You know where the space alien ‘lights’ happened. I’ve long thought they took one look at the inhabitants of phoenix and raced home to alpha centuari to announce ‘no intelligent life found on earth’.

I can honestly say that in the one trillion weddings I have attended. Never saw a need for one of these. I need to start hangin with a different crowd.
I’ll admit.
I asked for a bib for my wedding dinner.
But I’m known far and wide for dropping food on myself. I was not about to stain the living crap out of my expensive dress, so the reception hall had a funny plastic lobster-style bib that said Bride on it.
All that said… who the hell would want to pass on or recieve a used bib?!
Haven’t we taken a wrong turn somewhere down this road? We have left Luxe Leggings and their credibility problem and the stained jeans behind and arrived at an item designed to prevent stains. This doesn’t feel right, HK.
after reading the item description: my sister got married, she & her groom danced down the aisle to ZZTop’s “sharp dressed man” (they both watch pro wrestling & that was the Fantastic’s theme song…) anyway, in spite of that, my sister the Actuarial accountant & her husband, the Astronomy Prof, did NOT feel the need to smear cake on each other like participants on the Jerry Springer show.
I guess we can take comfort in that it’s ONLY $15.00, although someone really could have adjusted…
Seriously, the seams are all bunchy, they shouldn’t be. And for fuck’s sake: iron the god damned thing if it’s supposed to be worn at a wedding.
Where’s the Craftsmanship?
My sister’s wedding reception was catered by a local BBQ place. It was fantastic food but ribs are messy…lucky for my sister, they had these amazing devices called NAPKINS that she was able to use to protect her dress. Cotton protects better than “satin like” material, anyway.
Where is the creativity? Where is the craftsmanship?
You could really make something cute and useful if you used your imagination a little.
Here is what I would do. You know those tshirts that make you look like you have an hourglass figure wearing a bikini? Well, I’d make a flesh colored cleavage, use some lace and pearls and sequins and fancy it up, and then suggest the bride could use it as an apron after the wedding.
I think she misspelled a word in her description… i don’t think she meant “give it to another bride as something OLD”. I think she meant “give to another bride as something ODD.”

Is it vomit resistant?
December 31, 2009 at 1:38 pm
Satin looking fabric? clas-sy!
December 31, 2009 at 1:38 pm
It’s ugly, but practical. I wouldn’t want to get buffalo wing sauce on my good polyester/acetate wedding gown.
December 31, 2009 at 1:38 pm
Can I get the “Say What” guy printed on it in time for my renewal of vows at Chuckie Cheese?

I seriously could not tell at first if the adult in this meant, “Adult” like this was part of some weird role playing sex game
December 31, 2009 at 1:40 pm
Does it come with satin-like diapers? That way the bride or groom never have to leave the party to go potty!
December 31, 2009 at 1:41 pm
I would love to pass this on to my little sister with the BBQ sauce stain from my wedding

that wasn’t meant as a response to #8, I didn’t see your post when I wrote #9
December 31, 2009 at 1:42 pm
Does it come with a mallet and a bucket of all you can eat crabs?
It doesn’t stand out at all against the cream lace wedding gown….
December 31, 2009 at 1:44 pm
I’d love to see this turn up on the show “Redneck Wedding”!
December 31, 2009 at 1:46 pm
Now I know what to wear with my satin-looking material assless chaps!

curlytopnola…”memaw’s wedding gown circa 1927″
ha! love it.
December 31, 2009 at 1:50 pm
I’m going to avoid mentioning how tacky this is because you all with the greater senses of humor will do a better job at it.
That said…
This wouldn’t have helped at my wedding when my spouse and I decided to do the “mature” thing and have a cake fight.
We needed a tarp. Too bad they didn’t sell “satin-like” tarps 23 years ago.

December 31, 2009 at 1:54 pm
Nice, this will work well for my wedding at Famous Daves, where the napkins are actually a roll of paper towels at the table.
December 31, 2009 at 1:56 pm
Wedding dress $1500, reception $15,000, all your pictures taken with a $15 bib- worth every penny.
December 31, 2009 at 1:58 pm
How old is this bride that she needs to wear a bib? Does she also need to put her teeth in a jar every night?
December 31, 2009 at 1:59 pm
It’s a fancy-schmancy dickie.
December 31, 2009 at 2:02 pm
They’d be better off selling it as a hooker top than a bib.

Nope. Vomit-inducing.

found this in the ‘sold’ section of this shop
nothing says “patriotism” like letting your LIL ONE spit up all over the Marine Corps emblem and/or some 9/11 symbolism. classy.

I’m totally non-plussed. Why would anyone wear a bib at their wedding?? Your comments are all priceless just like this bib.

I agree…sounds like it’s for someone who needs adult bridal diapers too.
I guess it’s for those brides who really dig into their reception dinner.
I demurely tucked a napkin into my neckline instead. Silly me!

the tension on their sewing machine.
Seriously, the seams are all bunchy, they shouldn’t be. And for fuck’s sake: iron the god damned thing if it’s supposed to be worn at a wedding.

Or put an owl on it, wearing a mustache. That, at least, would appeal to a certain sect of Etsy.

“someone really could have adjusted… the tension on their sewing machine. Seriously, the seams are all bunchy, they shouldn’t be.”
Lord, yes. Just because you CAN run a sewing machine doesn’t mean you SHOULD.

January 4, 2010 at 4:12 pm
kitty, I think you’re onto something there. In fact, she could also be giving this soiled bib to her as “something MOLD.”
