Is it necessary to torture the poor bridesmaids. Please all you brides to be, be kind to your friends. I just received my dress for my friend's wedding in April. It didn't look bad at first, but I'm extremely glad that this is the final wedding I should have to be in.

I get to fly up to MD and then drive to NC with one of my friends from high school. The only positive is that I will be totally kid free that weekend. Unfortunately I have to spend time in the that icky dress. (it's also the first weekend that my husband will be completely alone with the kids for more than a couple hours - although they should be camping with the cub scouts so he'll have backup I'd rather go camping myself )
