I am so excited! I had a dress on hold at Lilette's and went today with a friend and my aunt to decide if I wanted it. After trying on a few other dresses just to be sure, I bought it and I am SOOO excited!
It is absolutely gorgeous and I will post pics as soon as I take some good ones. My sister went away with the digital camera so I have to wait for her to get back!
Oh...and as I'm standing there waiting to try it on, I ran into another LIW bride who I recognized from her picture. We had been speaking over FM, so it was pure luck to run into her there. I have no shame or embarrassment, so I just ran over and introduced myself. (And the gowns she was trying on were beautiful on her!)
here are some of the photos i snapped the other day. it is a discontinued sample, so this is my ACTUAL DRESS!!!
it is a teeny bit snug on top and needs to be hemmed, but besides that, it's perfect! oh...and they're going to tack the train so it falls nicely since there's so many layers!
Thanks so much for the compliment! Funny running into you there but I'm so happy that you came over and said hi! Can't wait to see which dress you chose!

did you make any decisions on the dresses you were trying on?
i chose the first one i tried on--strapless and beaded on top with a ballgown type bottom with lots of tulle. not sure if you remember it or not. i thought about it all week and once i saw it again, i knew i wanted it!

I am so glad you picked the first one b/c that was the dress that I thought look best on you - I was telling my MOH that as we were leaving the store!
I think you look awesome with your hair back too! are you doing a low chignon?

thanks!
i honestly have no idea how i'm going to do my hair. i just put it back in a scrunchie so that i could stick the veil on my head without it falling off my head!
i'm thinking high on my head but have no clue yet!
