I SAID YES!!!

Today, I said yes to the dress! I'm sooo very excited.

I saw a picture of a David Tutera dress online and I made 20-something phone calls to track it down. We found it in Trenton, NJ, so it was quite a hike - HOWEVER, I'm SO GLAD we found ourselves there, because I had one of the most wonderful and memorable experiences of my life. 3 of my 4 Bridesmaids were there (including FH's sister), along with my mom and my FH's mom. We had such a fabulous time and the people there were ABSOLUTELY wonderful.

If you're ever in the area of Trenton, NJ and need a place to go, check out 'A Perfect Dress.' They only carry Mon Cheri, but they carry the full lines of Sophia Tolli, David Tutera, Kathy Ireland, Tony Bowls and a few James Cliffords. They also carry lots of Bridesmaids dresses and their service was absolutely impeccable.

The dress I went there for was BEAUTIFUL, but it wasn't the one. This other dress, which one of my bridesmaids pulled from the rack for me that was completely different was the one. It's a Kathy Ireland for Mon Cheri.

Here are some photos, but they're not great, because it had to be clamped a bit. Some of my favorite details are the crumb-catcher neckline, the box pleats in the front and the crystal buttons down the back of the whole dress, which unfortunately, you can't see well in the photos:





Here's a stock photo of the bodice details, because my pics don't do them justice:
