What to do with the wedding dress, shoes, and veil?

    When I first started planning my wedding - around a year ago I didn't think that I'd be one of those overly sentimental girls when it came to the dress, the veil, and the shoes.  News flash: I fell in love with my dress, I adore my veil, and my shoes are beautiful.  However, I calculated last night that Matt and I have been married for almost seven months and here's the sitch: My dress is in the hanging bag between jeans in my closet, my veil is on a hanger drapping over my closet door, and my shoes are in their box and I'm fairly certain that they are somewhere in the back of my closet, but I'm not sure.  On 8/1/10, my one year anniversary, is the deadline to decide what I'm going to do with these items.  I want to put them all on again at my one year anniversary for two reasons: (1) I want to be able to fit into the dress and (2) because it gives me 5 more months to figure it all out. 
    I WILL NOT do a trash my beautiful Jenny Packham, cut on the bias and covered in crystals in a cheesy photo shoot.  I cannot understand why anyone would want to destroy their wedding dress for the sake of good photos, but that is just me.  I WILL NOT sell or donate my dress, I love it too much, too much to part with it for money or to feel like a good person.  I've turned into one of those sappy women that actually think their daughter would wear it one day.  Maybe my daughter will, but did anyone watch Keeping Up With The Kardashians "The Wedding?"  Poor Kris and her 70's dress, they really shot that one down.  I think that the only alternative that would really work for me would be to preserve the dress, in a box, for posterity...for my imaginary future daughter...and if she isn't into it, maybe a grandaughter. 

    The veil is either going to be preserved with the dress OR that is something that I would consider lending to my friends/family should they love it as much as I do.  It is extremely long and lined in crystals around the entire border, hand sewn onto it, and the designer isn't making them anymore because it is too labor intensive, which makes me think it's a one-of-a-kind and how could I not want to keep it?  Besides, I think it's good luck to wear a veil worn by a married woman.  However, anyone who does borrow it should be forwarned, I will hunt them down in their sleep to get it back!  My shoes are Manolo Blahnik white satin closed toe slingbacks - 3 inch heel - perfect for my wedding day, but I don't think I'll ever have a need for white satin, close toe, slingback shoes ever again.  My shoe repair man suggested that I dye them black.  I've been going back and forth on this one.  What do you guys out there think that I should do?
