Dress shopping trip #2

Posted by: Brooke on Aug 25, 2007

I was anxious to get back out and try on some more dresses. I met up with my sister, Becky, and my mom and we headed out to Richfield to stop at Amelishan Bridal. And I can’t tell you how to say it, since I’m not really even sure myself!

We pulled several dresses off the rack and I tried them on. None of them really stood out. I was feeling a bit discouraged, so we decided to go through the racks one more time. Becky found a few that she liked. The first one I tried on was gorgeous. I really liked this dress, but it wasn’t at all what I thought I would like. We put that one to the side and tried on the others. At the end, I put on that gorgeous dress again. I came out of the dressing room, stepped up to the mirror and it hit me. This is my wedding dress. I looked at my sister and mom and they both had tears in their eyes. We added a headpiece, veil and flowers and the look was complete! I HAD FOUND MY PERFECT DRESS!!

I was measured and the purchase was made!

I had gone from wanting a very simple, plain, white, spaghetti strap dress to getting a classy, beaded and embroidered, ivory, strapless gown….and I couldn’t have been happier!!
