HOWEVER, I just had to let it be known that I'm 99.9% sure that
I have found my wedding dress.
Did I order it yet? Nope...
But am I absolutely in love with it? YES!
And did I have the best day shopping with the loveliest ladies in my life? No doubt about it :)
Here's some proof:
My mom, future MIL, and 2 sisters met up with me to spend the day bridal boutique-ing on Saturday. We went to salon #1 and I found 3 dresses that I liked, but didn't "love" any one of them alone... I liked this about this one and that about that one (sorry for vagueness, but Nick may or may not read this blog and I don't want to take any chances!), and was sure I'd convince myself that I loved one of them later if need be. Needless to say, I didn't have my moment.
But thennnnnn we went to salon #2 and the first dress I tried on was exactly what I had imagined my dress would be. It had this and that from the first few all in one gown and I was beaming from ear to ear :) I took it off to try on others and just couldn't wait to get back into "mine." I think that's what they call "finding the one," and I can only hope that all things in life were so easy haha!
Whilst finding the dress:
We also found my bridesmaid dresses.
And my mom found a MOB dress potential (haha, MOB).
And found little flower girl dresses I liked.
I didn't order anything yet (and more importantly my dress) because of my own antics. I decided to wait to lose just a teeny bit more weight to order a size I'm more comfortable starting at / altering so we can get this show on the road! Then I can get onto the fun parts - accessorizing with jewelry + shoe shopping :)
All + all it was a great weekend with my two favorite families. I love the ever-living-daylights out of each of them and am such a grateful girl.
More fun + excitement to come later, I promise...
And will there be less wordy/non-photo posts you ask? Deal.
But for now, this is calling my name:
Let it be known for the record that I am not a lush and in fact wrote this last night at 9ish... Promise. It's more likely that at the present moment coffee is calling my name.
psssst: do we not just LOVE my girl Sami's new blog design
+ the girls' weekend update button? Adorable.
