Wedding Dress!

 Liane and I went last night and picked out my new wedding dress!  The best news is that its in stock in my size and colors, so I'll get it in a few weeks.  The sash and the dress will both be ivory.

Here's the runner-up dress:
 

And here is THE DRESS (note that this is 2 sizes too small, so the fit isn't quite right)
   
   

There is beautiful beading on the front part:
 

We also looked at veils.  Here's the detailing on the veil.  I'm getting it in a shorter length so the end comes just below the sash.:


Plus we looked at headbands and tiaras!  This was the largest tiara that they had, so I tried it on for giggles.  I felt like the Statue of Liberty.


We did find and buy a great headband, though. It looks like its part of the veil when the veil is on, and then I can wear it as a sparkly headband during the reception!
 

Finally, we browsed the jewelry, but didn't buy any.  They didn't have quite the right match for the beading on the dress. Here's an example of the type of jewelry we looked at, though.


YAY!

Beautiful!! I love the cut - beading and wraparound on the top looks great - and the train looks like it's the perfect length. 2Be is a great brand and Charlotte's will treat you right! (or I'll come beat them up!!)

3 months! :)

Wait! So this must mean the other place totally fell through on getting your dress for you? Oh, but this one is lovely. I really like this one better than your runner up, too! Good choice. You're gorgeous in it! Instead of tiara, you should get one of those chiquita banana fruit hats and let all of your guests pick some fruit as you walk down the aisle ;) just kidding, but I love the idea of feeding people as you go through the ceremony! hee hee.

Hey Jen - yeah, the other dress completely fell through. Basically the owner of the first shop got back in touch with the manufacturer, and now won't release the dress to anyone except her (I was *this* close to getting the dress shipped to me). Since I have so many bad feelings about that dress now, I decided to start over. Charlotte's has been great to work with (they were dealing with the other manufacturer for me, even though they don't carry the dress!), so I'm excited to buy through them.

I love the chiquita banana idea - that would be very funny! ;)
