I said yes to the dress!

As pretty as some of the dresses I've seen are, I knew that I definitely did NOT want your typical strapless wedding dress. I wanted my dress to be different and something that fits my personality. Not to mention there is no strapless dress in the world that could support the chest I was cursed/blessed with (depending on your point of view. ha!) So thanks to pinterest I found a picture of my DREAM dress, although most of you know that what you see on there is not usually found in real life. & that was my problem. 
     I ended up calling about 20 different stores just to see if they had anything like it. All of them said no. Majority of them only had strapless dresses! So knowing this I made an appointment at The Wedding Day just to try on some different styles to see what fit I liked best so that I could have my dress custom made by a seamstress. Plus who doesn't like to get the whole trying on wedding dresses with your family experience?! 
I had my mom, my aunt deb, and my maids of honor come with me. I tried on about 4 dresses & then much to my surprise I found almost the exact dress I wanted for half the price I thought I was going to pay! They were able to take one of their dresses & add on/alter it to exactly what I had envisioned! I got so lucky!! For all of you brides out there I highly recommend this place. They were so friendly, not at all pushy, & extremely helpful!

I would love to post a picture on here but I don't think Todd would be able to keep from peeking at it so you will just have to wait til November 8th (; 

Instead heres a picture of us toasting to the find...So much fun!
