I met my dress!!!

I met my dress on Saturday and let me tell you, I was definitely nervous. What if I didn't love it anymore? What if it didn't zip? It was a mix of emotions when I went into the dressing room. I just stood there, staring at the dress...too afraid to touch it. I don't know what I was exactly scared of? I was too scared to touch it...maybe too scared to break it? Well, after a few minutes, I went for it...I took it off the hanger and put it on. All of my fears were pushed aside when I finally put it on. Thank the lord, I still LOVE it and it zipped! Actually it was a little bit big! I decided on a veil too! After trying on tons of different lengths and styles, I decided in a very simple, single layered, fingertip length veil. I looked though my fellow Browers brides' wedding pictures and noticed that everyone had a long veil. I tried one on but was just not feeling it. I love the look in pictures but when I put it on, I felt like it overpowered me an my dress. It also reminded me of a mosquito net. Just not my style (although my mom REALLY loved it)!This one was just too poofy!!! You can tell by my face that I didn't like it...haha! But I love the ribboned edge. Mine will have that too...just a little thinner!Anyway, I love my dress! I am so happy about my choice. It is so different...I haven't seen anyone wear it yet! I don't have to go in for alterations until May so now it is time to get into the gym and tone up those arms, shoulders, and my back! Not looking forward to that!!!

Aren't you worried Mike will see your post? Or does he already know about your dress? It's so pretty by the way and I think the veil length you chose is perfect. I can't wait to see how you decide to wear the sash.

I love the neckline and the overall simple look to the dress! I also love the lace detail. I know it's hard to take pictures of your dress and be able to appreciate all the detail. It's beautiful from what I can see!

How exciting, Lauren! Meeting your dress is such a special moment. I personally love long veils, like you said, for the pictures....but if it's not 'you' then steer clear. Chances are you won't wear it for too long anyway.

Congrats on the official meeting!
