Gettin' Fancy!

3 months and 2 days! Eeeee! We are now officially under the three digit mark with 94 days until the big day. Seriously. I cannot believe how fast this is all going. While there’s still a lot to do before the hitching begins I took last night to think beyond the wedding and instead toward the…honeymoon! =)

Last night after work I met my mom and my sis and we went to go check out some dresses. Steve and I are going on a 12 day cruise of the Mediterranean for our honeymoon. Little did I know they have these things called “formal nights” on the ship. Formal? What’s that?! And does my closet know what that means?? After a quick mental check and a eye-to-clothes double check I did, indeed, confirm that my closet does NOT know what formal means. So dress shopping it was!!

The three of us once again made a trek down to David’s Bridal (where I bought my wedding dress) to check out their party dresses and to see if there was anything that didn’t scream bridesmaid. After trying on about 13 dresses – some super cute, others bridesmaidy and a few that made me look like I was trying to prey on the young, I found two. And wouldn’t you know it, the first two I tried on were the two that I got. Haha… But we had a great time and it was fun to just be out with the mom and the sis.

It had been about a month since I was last in there to pick up my wedding dress…THEE wedding dress…from alterations. It looked great and I’m not divulging any details. But let’s say that Maria from DB did a great job altering it…and boy does it fit snug! It actually makes me look like I have good posture. Hahaha… In addition to my mom and sis, my cousin Lisa and my Aunt Penny joined us. I’ll post a pic of everyone together (minus me. ;) There is no way Steve can know anything about the dress before the big unveil.) =) So just a pic of my posse will do for now. We had a great time and my Aunt Penny actually cried when I came out of the dressing room in my dress. That’s a good thing, right? ;)
