I have been anxious about my dress since the day that I ordered it. I was convinced that they would order the wrong one, that it wouldn't fit and continually came up with a myriad of other problems that could go wrong with the dress. I'm pretty sure that my insentient phone calls to the store where I bought it from bordered on harassment.
Last Thursday I got the phone call that I have been anxiously awaiting, my dress was in and I could go pick it up whenever I wanted. My Mom and Dad had promised to make the trip over for my fitting so last night they caught the 5pm and it was just a matter of hours before I could go and get it.
The store opened today at 11:30am and the plan was to go pretty much the minute they opened. Last night I went to bed relatively early to make sure that I was fresh and looking nice for the 1st pictures of me in my wedding dress but sadly an early night was not in the cards. I felt like a 5 year old on Christmas Eve, every time I closed my eyes I could picture my dress, my veil.... everything! I gave up on sleep this morning around 8, and attempted to study until Mom and Dad came to pick me up.
Around 11, my phone rang and I sprang into action getting ready. I grabbed my camera and was out the door. We arrived at the Bridal shop which at this point was full of grads trying on dresses for their prom and I was escorted into a room and there it was. Perfect.
I slipped into my bustier and shoes and then my dress. The girl laced me up and then out I walked. Then the veil was added and it was perfect, just perfect. I felt so special, I knew I had made the right choice. A few pictures later I got was dragged out of the dress and got to take it home! Well actually it's currently hanging in my good friends Kristy's closet so a certain fiance isn't tempted to see it. There are a few little alterations needed but all in all it's pretty darn perfect! Anyone who would like an emailed copy of the pic please let me know!
MEEEE!!!!!!!
