I wasn't even supposed to go shopping today but I woke up in a gloomy mood b/c my school is screwing around with my sub schedule for this month (i go perm next month). My mom decided to take off today and pull a few strings to get me into a one day sale at a local bridal botique where she knows one of the owners. Low and behold I bought the first dress I tried on - I could NOT beat the price. I originally intended to spend btwn 4k-5k on my dress - I can still keep looking for a dress if I wanted b/c that's how good the price was - I won't take a hit if I fall in love with something else. Everyone in the store told me I was crazy if I didn't buy this dress.
If anyone has ever seen Grace Kelly's wedding dress it is almost identical but with all bead work on the top. Its simple, elegant, EXTREMELY feminine and totally my taste. Its something I've never seen recent brides wear which is the look I wanted.
Sorry for the long post and type - o's but I couldn't wait to tell you girls!
