Feeling Beautiful

So, I bought my dress on Saturday. I had a great time with my bridesmaids in Spokane. We picked out and paid for my dress (it will be in sometime in April) and we picked out the bridesmaids dresses which I was going to buy BUT I hit my credit limit. Boohoo!

It felt nice trying on my dream dress. Every time I went on the David's Bridal website, I drooled over this dress. It was my dream to have this dress. I tried it on in a few sizes too big, so the woman helping me had to pin it back. I fell in love with it instantly.

There was another dress that I was strongly considering, but since I am having a Catholic wedding, I can't have a strapless dress which means I would have also had to buy something to cover my shoulders. The only problem with that is that the dress was already right at my budget. Because of this, and the fact that it was beautiful, I went with the other dress. I am very satisfied with my choice.

Being a plus-sized bride, I am self conscious constantly; I felt like I had never felt before in this dress. This dress called out my name when I first laid eyes on it. Since I tried it on a few sizes too big, I had to guess that my size was the same as in the other dresses I tried on. Hopefully I'm right! If it does turn out to be a little small, luckily I CAN lose weight between April and October. I will be a beautiful blushing bride. :-)
