Her vow to keep wearing this wedding dress sparked a sweet travel tradition
CNN
Samantha Mathew vowed to get as much wear as possible out of her wedding gown. So far, it has traveled to 13 countries and plays a big role in an anniversary tradition she and her husband share.
(CNN) — Samantha Mathew's carry-on "personal item" on international flights is often very personal indeed -- her wedding dress.
"We generally just kind of stuff it into a vacuum seal bag ... and it comes out basically looking brand-new," said Mathew, who goes by Sam.
Or nearly. By her calculation, the dress has been to 13 countries since her May 2018 wedding.
