Not to be a hyper-excited bride-to-be, but my dress arrived today! Yes, I got engaged 8 days ago, but this little number was selected beforehand. I knew I was frugal and preferred the simpler things in life, but I never expected to spend so little on a wedding dress. Granted, it is more like a cocktail dress than a ball gown, but that's what I like. I think it sets the tone for a fun and festive wedding, which is what my fiance and I plan to have.
I wish I had a photo, but alas, not right now. I can't figure out how to fix my computer's camera and I'm still living in the dumbphone realm. So you will have to wait for pictures, mwuhahaha! I can still describe it to you though.
It hits just above the knee (maybe higher, if you ask my mom), and it has a high neckline with lace detail. It has short, capped sleeves and a slender bodice. I'm making these fancy terms up as I go along, so ...
Surprisingly, it was tight in the chest area (very surprising to me!) so I'll need to take it to a tailor, but I wasn't really expecting to be able to just slip it on and have it be perfect.
So, one of the most important aspects of my wedding is just about figured out. Matthew and I are doing everything we can to make this wedding ASAP (that is, As Simple As Possible). Who knew I would be planning my own wedding? This was not part of the plan I had for my life. I was supposed to be single for a long time, doing my own thing and loving it. Now I have a fiance and we're planning a life together forever.
And I couldn't be happier.
