Let me start by saying I love my wedding dress (some days). I go try it on, feels snug. I go back LOVE IT. Then final fitting with full on dress rehearsal, veil, shoes, bustle up… HATED IT. I think I am going to have to sneak in another try on for my bridesmaids when I get to North Carolina.
It’s really crazy because I absolutely love my dress. Even when I’m not feeling it 100% on me, I still love it. On my wedding day, I know I will love it and feel grogeous. Because when I tried it on I just knew. Also did I mention that it feels like it weighs 100# when I’m carrying it. Good thing it doesn’t feel like that when it’s on 
I have to practice my wedding smile.
Advice for buying a wedding dress.
1) don’t let someone else make the final decision
2) go with your gut, you just know when it is THE ONE!
3) accessorize… I was not going to do a veil, but then I put it on an VIOLA, it was like I was transformed into a Princess
4) find the perfect shoes, even if you have to buy and return 10+ pairs

Haven’t posted in a while, probably because I have gone bannanas. I thought everything was done, then all of a sudden things started unraveling.
1) Decided to go with artificial flowers instead of live. I don’t think they will end up being cheaper than buying live ones in bulk, but I will not have to worry about storage. I am using real touch calla lillies, and I have been pleased with how they look so far.
2) Thought I had a videographer… they have gone MIA
3) Forgot to add my fiance and myself to the number for dinner. That is a big ol DUH!
4) Return shoes that were too big, and had ordered same ones online. They haven’t showed up yet
Good news:
I can still add to my guest list… yeah. Also, just found out my shoes will be in today! This is great since my final fitting is tomorrow. I also found a great place to get the flowers I wanted. www.flowers-by-design.com Plus I have a buddy who does resale, so since I was ordering in large quantity they were able to get me the wholesale pricing.
Oh and since this past weekend was labor day, got to the beach for a little sun All and all I have decided everything will work itself out.
