Wedding Dress Blues.
So yeah it has been a while, not that anyone has noticed. I have been keeping up on my alerts but that is all, no commenting...no nothing.
I have been busy, wedding plans are underway, I got my beautiful dress (more on that), I know what flowers I want, where it will be, general idea for bridemaids dresses, food and much more.
Not everything is in stone yet, only things really are my dress, location and the date. Speaking of 'the dress', we went and looked at for my dress. 'We' meaning my mom, step-mom, sister, niece and nephew, Joe hasn't and will not see the dress so if you want to see it just comment or e-mail me. I won't be putting it in here. Since the day Joe asked me to marry him I have been looking at dresses online, at the store and in magazines. I found one at David's Bridal, online, and it was the one I knew I wanted. Ya know the dress you have dreamt about since you were a little girl.
So we went to David's Bridal and they had it, the girl didn't even ask my size, I just told her the dress I wanted and she went and got it. I had to have my sister help with the corset and slip, yeah that was fun I was sweaty and we were both cracking up. The dress wouldn't fit me, I thought it was too small. So I took it off we were getting ready to get a different size when I noticed the zipper wasn't done all of the way. So I put it back on and it fit perfectly, and when I say perfectly I mean it doesn't need to be hemmed or taking in at all. It fits like a gem.
It was the only dress I tried on, I knew it was the one and I didn't care what anyone else thought. Even though everyone else loved it, they all cried. I found a beautiful vail and I am thinking about a tiara but not too certain about that. I know that my niece wants one.
Well we get the dress, and put it on layaway, which is only 60 days :( My wedding isn't until next June I don't need my dress in 60 days, but I didn't want it to not be there at a later date. This past weekend I was talking to Joe and I brought up that I wasn't going to be able to get my dress. We just don't have the money right this second, and I wasafraid if I took it off layaway I wouldn't be able to get it at another time. Cause maybe it would be discontinued or something.
I was all upset, crying and what not even considered calling the wedding off and just eloping...lol. Yes I can be dramatic... So I call my Mommy crying to her, never once asking her to help (I don't ask people to help me, even when I know I need it). We hang up and she calls me right back saying she will pay for it and that it is our wedding gift. Have I ever told you all how much I love my Mommy??? I love her soooo much. She is the best!!!
OK I didn't think this entry would be this long and there is other stuff i wanted to talk about. I guess I will just have to do another entry.
Until Later
