As a follow-up to THIS thread from last week I figured that I would update you girls on my final dress choice.
Even though this particular dress only got 14.7-ish% of the vote (the least of all three), I chose the Demetrios Blue style #DB103. It was the one I felt most comfortable in. TheFutureMrsM made a very good point (in the other thread) about rouching making one look wider and she's definetly right (in my case anyway since I'm very hourglass-y). I brought my entire entorage back to the stores to re-try on all of the dresses I was considering and this one I felt was my best choice.
When I tried it on the second time I didn't want to take it off and for the first time in my dress shopping adventure I felt like a bride while also feeling like 'me', if you follow. I feel really good in this gown and I feel really lucky to have found something I love so much because I never thought I would have that moment that other brides talk about.
Oh man....anyway....I'm going to stop going on and on now.... haha
ALSO! While we were in the store and even though they have a strict 'no photos' policy one of my most amazingly wonderful bridesmaids was great enough to pretend to be text messaging and snapped a few 'spy photos' of me actually in the dress.
Soooo here's the model photo....
And here's me!!
....keep in mind the sample is somewhat smaller then the actual dress will be and I'm about 20 pounds heavier then I will be hahaha.
Soooo I'm sorry this was so long but I'M DONE DRESS SHOPPING and I couldn't be more exited!!!
Thanks for listening/reading ladies!!
