Wedding Dress Shopping!

Since Craig and I were engaged in March, I've been on a few trips to look for a wedding dress. I went to several places in Nashville with my wonderful Maid of Honor, Claire, and found a few dresses that fit well. None of them were what I was looking for, but I got some good ideas about what would look the best. I mean, have you ever been in one of those places?!? I don't know how anyone knows where to start. All the dresses look more or less the same on the hanger until you know a few specific features you're looking for.

I also got to go to a few places in Macon to look for a dress with my mom. That was really fun. Even when strange people are looking at you in your underwear and using bright orange electrical clips to hold a dress on your body, it's really fun to try on as many dresses as you want! I am not someone who will ever put on a dress and think it's "the one"- there are so many great ones!

So with all of my ideas in mind, I found a bridal shop near my new home in Broomfield that had a lot of dresses at great prices. One of my bridesmaids, Krista, and I went tonight to look for a dress. I'm pretty tired of thinking about my dress and am ready to move on to thinking about other things (like shoes and stationary!), so I was in the mood to make decisions. I tried on 4 dresses and have narrowed it down to 2! No, I'm not going to write about them on here- that's the one secret I get to keep from Craig for the next year! The dresses are beautiful and not at all what I had in mind when I first started my search, but now I couldn't imagine anything else.
