Wish me luck!-Went Dress shopping Today (LONG) Now w/ PIC

Tomorrow I'm going to try on dresses at Lillette's and The Wedding Plaza.

Wish me luck...hopefully i get good customer service and find a dress I like. The only thing is I forgot to bring my Spanx from FH's house Oh well...I'll be extra marshmellowy looking...

I'll post pics of the ones I like the best.

*******UPDATE*********


SO I went dress shopping today and it wasa little overwhelming.

I ended up loving a dress that I orginally thought would never look good on me and it looked stunning on me. However the dresses I thought would have looked good on me made me look like a line backer.

I'm very self-councious about my arms (plus size bride) but the dresses that had lacey or spandex sleevs only accentuated my arms even more. The strapless dress just didn't draw attention to my lin-backer arms.

I wish I had pics but unfortunately I couldn't figure out how to turn off the flash on my camera to sneek in some pics.

MY brother sneaked one...I will try to post shortly.

It was a long day...I was amazed how tired I was...but I must say I think I'll feel the same way you do own the road.

I've included a pic in the original post. It's the only pic we snuck.

OMG - this is my big fear! My arms are about the size of my thighs and I have very sloping shoulders. And it's impossible to find anything with sleeves that aren't form fitting or see through. I'm actually dreading it But your dress looks georgous! Congrats to you for finding one that looks beautiful on you AND you're comfortable in!

I worry about my arms too, a good tan or spray tan will help camoflauge! You look gorgeous!

I think the dress is very flattering for you. What do you think of a bolero style jacket from the same type of fabric as your gown. That fabric might be better than a lace or thin chiffon
