Well, the timing is a little off, but I have pictures and they need to be posted! So here are pics from the wedding invitation stuffing party-like fun times with Erin and Lindsay and lots of red wine!
The other pre-wedding picture-taking extravagana was the somewhat epic, mostly really long and exhausting wedding dress hunt. The search for "the dress" consisted of hours and hours of online searching, somewhere between 5 and 7 store visits, lots of help from my mom and friends and an eventual happy ending that didn't include "the feeling" but did include satisfaction and good feelings.
Here's a ridiculous amount of pictures to give you a feeling of how it all went down, and also to show off many of the dresses I didn't get.
|
There were SO. MANY. DRESSES. |
|
Dress shopping was intense and this was pretty much how it felt. |
|
This was almost the dress. |
|
Could've been. Did have doo dad's afterall. |
|
The skirt was so poofy!
|
|
Trying on dresses starts as fun and ends in yawns.
Sadly, this was only about halfway through the first trip. |
|
We tried to keep our spirits up though! |
|
My Mommy found a pretty dress too! |
|
We whipped out our hipster poses. |
|
The matchy matchyness was totally coincidental and lead to adding another color to the navy and silver scheme. |
|
This was the first dress I tried on. I totally fell in love with it at the time, but in the end it wasn't the one. |
|
At my mom's request I tried on this SUPER poofy dress AND the crazy long cathedral veil. She cried. |
|
I was also very close to getting this one at one point. |
|
It was decided that this was the most flattering and also least me-like dress tried on. |
|
I also this one on like 4 times and almost got it. |
In the end, this is the one I went with. Maybe not the best picture of the dress, but I still rather like it ;)
