Dress Shopping 101

Dress shopping has been so much fun! I must admit that the idea of putting on a wedding gown made me really nervous, but trying on all those beautiful gowns was so much fun. I've had two dress shopping excursions so far and both have been very successful. I'm getting closer and closer to finding the one and I've been daydreaming about all the contenders (I have a few that I'm currently in love with). In my heart I think I know which one is meant for me, but I'm not quite ready to commit. I think I need one more day of just shopping before I make a final decision.

Trying on dresses has really made the wedding come to life for me. We have less than a year to go and it's becoming more and more of a reality as time passes. It's been hard for me to get into the bride mentality since there is so much that I can't do until days before the wedding when we get to Jamaica, so the dress shopping has really helped me to connect with this experience and start to visualize what I want our big day to feel like. I can't wait to try on more dresses. I wish that I could show you pics of the ones that I'm drooling over but as a consolation I will show you a few pics of a dress that I liked a lot but unfortunately it got bumped out of the race. ;)
