I Got My Dress!

I haven't been doing much in the planning process because I've been busy with school. I decided to make an appointment at David's Bridal today to make up for the lack of planning and to just have fun. Who knew I would actually find "the" dress. I would describe it but I don't want Bill to decide he wants to read the blog and find out what it looks like. I can basically say that it was not one I would have ever chosen for myself. I was looking for classic, simple dresses and Bill's mom found the dress we actually purchased. I tried it on and was like "this is a lot of dress!" At first I thought it was too much for me and I would just take it off. But the more I wore it and the more I looked at it with a veil and tiara and shoes I just fell in love with it. I'm just so happy and excitied that I can make a checkmark on my checklist on this big item. It's so nice to have something so big accomplished with a lot of time left 'til the wedding.

Bill and I also saw a florist this morning. I loved the people and know I can be comfortable if we decide to use them. Their prices were also lower than the first florist we visited and she wrote it all down and showed me flowers she was thinking of using which really helped me envision what was inside her head. I feel like the next big thing Bill and I need to tackle is a cake. I really don't want to spend more than $200 on a cake so I really want to shop around so I know I'm gonna get the best bang for my buck. That part will be fun...i love tasting cake : )
