Alright - I was warned by many past brides-to-be to start looking for my dress early. Of course I didn't listen. Why on earth would I shop for a dress 6 months before the wedding? I am a planner - but honestly I am not that planned. So I decided to venture out 3 months to the day in search for a wedding dress.
On Saturday I met up with my beautiful and hilarious friend Gilly (more formally known as Jennifer Gilson). Gilly is a great friend and I would have not been able to tackle what I did on Saturday without her. I went out with all intentions and a common statement from all brides-to-be "I am just looking today - I am not buying". Well - one stop, five dresses, and an hour and a half later I am now the proud bride of the most beautiful wedding dress ever all within in budget - and if I can drop a few inches I won't even require alterations it fits that perfectly. Want to see it? Well you'll have to wait until March 3, 2011.
If you know me - a major purchase like this is totally out of character. I like to think, analyze, compare, contemplate, discuss before I buy anything. So I am quite impressed with myself - OK I should be giving Gilly all the credit. I would have never got through it without her. Thanks Jen!!
Now on with the other not so major (but just as important) details. Like Steve's attire - this should be fun!
