Say yes to the dress already!

So I had thought I had my dress picked out pretty much before Tony proposed. Now I am not sure. I think I picked it because it was inexpensive and simple. You can see it here: http://www.bridalonlinestore.com/Collection/displayimage.asp?image=haylee-front-b.jpg
It is pretty. But I am not going to get married again...so I suppose I should get something I REALLY LOVE. So I went dress shopping several weeks ago. Tony's stepmom Diana, Steffanie and Ashleigh came to give me their (very) honest opinions. It wasn't nearly as much fun as I had hoped. First of all, it is actually very exhausting trying on dresses. Some of them are heavy, and some require an unusual amount of flexibility to get on and off. After 3 hours, I was starved, dehydrated and nursing a migraine. It wasn't all bad...we had some good laughs and the ladies were very helpful and it was kind of amusing to see my daughter trying on wedding gowns as well;)



I do like this one, I love the fabric and detailing, but strapless dresses squish up my armpits. Not something I want on my big day;)


I like the back of this one......



This was Di's favorite one.




This one is VERY pretty!! But there are those squished up armpits again.....


I was noticing I look like my momma in this picture..A LOT!


I really like the red...makes the dress pop.

So my search continues, I am going in a couple of weeks to another dress shop. Perhaps I will find "the one"!
