Yesterday was a great day. I found my wedding dress.
My Mom and I started out in the morning and had booked appointments at two different places. We arrived in New West a little early so we decided to do some window shopping (in the rain) why not!? We spotted a store that had the style I was looking for, without even checking if they were open we walked right in and quickly picked out a couple for me to try on before my other appointment. I really thought the first one I tried on had me. Then I tried on another that drew my attention when I walked by but didn't think it would look right on me. When I walked out and saw my Mom's face I knew that this was the one, then of course looked in the mirror and felt a wave of emotion. I had to quickly change back into my clothes and head to my appointment that I really tried to put the effort in to give other dresses a chance. I ended up feeling frustrated and bored because both Mom and I knew it was a big waste of time. I found the dress. My dress.
When we went back I put both dresses on again just to make sure the second was the choice. The day had been rainy and grey but as soon as I put the second one back on, the sun came out.. it was a sign ;) I really wanted something a bit original and am so pleased I found it. I tried on a sample dress and will be getting one made just for me! I wish I could share the designer, however I want to keep everything on the down low right now. I must say the whole experience was wonderful. I think Mom was pleased of how easy it went, for someone who is obsessed with "say yes to the dress" had some anxiety of how stressful it can be.
I ended up canceling my second appointment, I didn't want to go though trying on more dresses when I had already fallen in love with one.
I was pleased that I was able to take a couple pictures with my phone since most of my wedding party are in different provinces, I was able to share my excitement with them at the same time.
Thank you Mom for sharing such a wonderful day with me! Now I have to wait until MAY to wear it!? Ugh!
