Bridal sigh of relief today!
I found my dress.. Ended up going to Davids Bridal with my mom, sis and gramma.. I went with the first dress out of 5 I tried on. It has a halter-type top and long train, lots of pearly beadwork on the bodice part; nice slimming effects too!
All of you brides know the relief I am feeling tonight.. Now I do have to take it in for alterations next week; but still, it is in my posession!! Isn't it exciting to look into the mirrors there and see YOUrself in one of these?!

What, no pictures! Brides are hot!:P
Re: Bridal sigh of relief today!
Pics would be nice. :) How much time to get ready for the big day , If you don't mind me asking. I never got a big wedding It was jeans and western boots at the court house. Big events make me crazy!!!
Re: Bridal sigh of relief today!
Congrats! Feels great to find "the one", doesn't it?
Does David's have a pic of your dress on their website? *hinthintlinkyhinthint*
And bonus that the embellishment is pearls - when I was looking, pearl accessories and jewelry seemed waaay easier to find then diamondy-crystals, which is what my dress had. =)

Jen, I didn't know you were getting married. I don't always keep up on that stuff, so don't get mad. But what I really wanted to say was CONGRATULATIONS!

Thanks! We still have a ton of planning to do; finalizing the guestlist, him getting his guys and their tuxes in order.. but we got the hall for the reception and a few decorations.. yay!
Re: Bridal sigh of relief today!
Congrats!
yeah, it's VERY tough when you're paying for it yourself, or with very little help. PW and I paid for everthing ourselves. My dad surprised us the morning of the wedding and paid the rental for their tuxes when he picked them up.
Yeah! Picspicspics! My feelings were a little more hectic. I had to have mine MADE, and so I had to scramble aaaaall over to find a seamstress, PLUS the money for HER fee, let along the materials for the dress. But it turned out VERY nice and the lady and her mother were friends for a looong time, until we all moved and lost touch. :( I still have the gown boxed up.
Oh, just a friendly....Be sure to get your gown cleaned and spotted, RIGHT AWAY after the wedding (and by a REPUTABLE cleaners!!!!!). Mine was delayed b/c the open house was after, but across the state, and it was a garden event. By the time the p-poor laundry ppl treated my skirt, there's still a faint grass stain in it. :( :( :mad: :mad:
Keep us posted on the wedding plans. :D
Have U registered your snakey and furry wants w/the guests yet??? ;)

I agree, can't wait to see the pics! Just one question, though... why so many odd people? :8: Personally, I would have tried to even it out with a few more normal peeps.
Hmmm... I wonder if adding one of those censor-type bars over your eyes in the pics would make it Mark-safe?
