2nd wedding dress

Please let me know if it is acceptable to wear the wedding gown that I wore to my wedding to Andrew. Andrew has passed away. When I marry Mike a mutual friend of Andrew and I and family?

From one widowed woman to another...PLEASE leave the past in the past. Buy a new dress and begin a new life. Keep your beautiful memories but make a new life for yourself.

Also, from an etiquette point of view, it is not appropriate.

I believe your marriage to Mike should signal a new beginning. Of course you have your memories, but make a fresh start on this day.
