Hello everyone!
I went to my third bridal store on Saturday and found my dream dress!! Well....TWO dream dresses! AND I stayed under budget!! I plan on wearing the ballgown to our ceremony for the added length and drama, then the fitted dress to our reception! I haven't told FH that I got two dresses, and the reception dress is something he'd never expect me to pick since I'm very big on hiding my body in clothes. I've lost a little weight, and plan on losing much more before the wedding, so I'm excited to see how they'll fit after alterations are made! Def. plan on taking extra volume out from the first skirt because I still feel like it's too much lol.
To everyone that has commented and given me advice on my previous forums about dress shopping, THANK YOU! Your advice was so helpful, and being open to different dress styles helped me realize the shape I have, and sparked some confidence in me! I never thought I'd pick a fitted dress that's also strapless, but I felt so comfortable in both dresses, and while walking (and dancing) around, I never once pulled on the top! Thanks again everyone!
Front of the ceremony dress: belt does not come with it, not sure if I'd want one or a sash, thoughts?
Back of the ceremony dress: LOVE the buttons down the back!
back of the reception dress: Basically the same as the first dress, just a different style!
