Oh my oh my oh my did I try on a LOT of dresses this past weekend in northwestern Indiana! We went to a total of–get this–10 stores! I would guess that I tried on AT LEAST 50 wedding dresses. Yes, I said 50. At least. And I’m not even close to done!
Remember, if you want to see the photos of me in the dresses, just ask! I will not post the link here, as Husband-in-Training may run across it, but it is available to whoever asks!
All in all, I did have a great time shopping with my mom. We used to go prom gown shopping and always had a wonderful time! And now, 10 years later, here we are searching for a wedding gown. It’s a natural progression and I am so glad we get to do this together!
In other news, yesterday after dinner, I got two pieces of paper and two pens out so Adrian and I could write down our ideas for our wedding. When we were done, we traded papers and realized our lists were almost 100% the same! I guess you couldn’t ask for a better outcome. We both want the same things from our wedding day. So what kinds of things did we write down?
The words we ended up agreeing on were:
- Informal
- Small
- Inexpensive
- FUN
- Outdoors (ceremony)
- NO cake!
- Personal
- Nontraditional
- Eco-friendly
What’s that, you say? “No cake!?” That’s right! Neither Adrian nor I like cake, but I have no doubt we’ll have LEAST one other dessert option. Most likely more than one. That is, if I have anything to do with it.
Some links of interest:
(I am in LOVE with one of her dresses. Guess which one and win…my admiration!)

And of course, my favorite: Ebay
Please let me know if you come across any other links of interest! Anything DIY, eco-friendly, vintage, etc.!
