I found my dress!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Treasure43]

So my maid of honor and one of my bridesmaids went dress shopping yesterday. It was just supposed to be a scouting mission and for me to figure out what I wanted, since I haven't tried on any dresses yet. Anyway, we went to this amazing little boutique and I pick out a whole bunch of dresses. The woman helping me suggested I try on a lace dress and I wasn't a fan but I said I would anyway. So we ended up trying on the lace dress first and everyone was tearing up and I never wanted to get out of it! It was amazing and flattering and EVERYTHING! I even got a little faint at the sight. I tried on dresses after that just to be sure and I put the first one on at the end and it was still the one! My maid of honor told me my fiance called while I was trying on the #1 dress and we were all like "it's a sign!" I just can't believe I found it on my first try! It's a Casablanca dress in ivory, strapless, sweetheart neckline, a-line, catherderal train. It's so light with just the perfect amount of beading. My mom is flying down from NY next weekend so she can see it and we're buying it then! So I'll post pictures then! Anyway, I'm super excited!!! I also found a fabulous lace lined vail that matches the dress. I'm getting on that's shoulder lenth (to use for the blusher and the reception) and a cathedral lengeth one for the ceremony.

I also found the bridesmaids and maid of honor dresses yesterday but that's another story for another post coming soon

That''s great - I just found my dress too. It''s such a relief - no more dress shopping. Post some pics when you can - I just posted some of my dress. I almost went for a Casablanca lace dress - we must have similar taste

That''s a great price

That is a really beautiful dress! Cant wait for the pics!

Edit - $640??? Wow...it really looks like a much more expensive dress. I was thinking more like a couple of grand.

I know! When my sales lady pulled the dress for me to try on I was mad because I told her that my budget was 800 and under. I thought that this dress was definitely over 1000 dollars! It was originally a little over 800 at my store, but is 30 percent off right now. It is a very well made dress and looks much more expensive than it is.

Treasure--can''t wait to see pictures of you in it!

 

[Treasure43]

Mine is actually 775 because I have a 100 dollar off coupon. I couldn''t believe when she told me the price! I thought it would be WELL over a thousand!

 

[Maisie]

Beautiful dress!!

 

[miraclesrule]

I''m so glad you won''t have to try on a gazillion dresses!! Sometimes the first one is the perfect one. And this is an amazing dress. I can''t wait to see you in it.

 

[gwendolyn]

[LadyBlue]
