Dress is in!

what if my dress looked like this?
it's kind of growing on me...


Oh no! With eleven months to go until the wedding, my dress has arrived! Why is this an "Oh no!" you ask? Because a) I am very indecisive -- I am afraid I will change my mind about loving the dress by having it around for So.Damn.Long; b) I am impatient -- it is going to drive me nuts having this dress and not being able to wear it; c) I am the opposite of discreet -- I don't know HOW I am going to have this thing in our house and not show my groom, who clearly has so much more self control than I do, because his only reaction to hearing my news was, "oh, cool!" instead of "oh, cool, can I see it, can I see it?!" which is what I would have done.

Now, I don't have it yet. I just know it is in the store, waiting for me to come and take it home. What if I go and I hate it? What if I go, I bring it home, I try it on with shoes to see how much I should get shortened off the hem, and I snag it, tearing to pieces, spilling food/drink/paint on it in the process? (WHY are these things near my dress in this scenario?! I don't know...)

I think I need to have faith that if I loved it when I bought it, I will love it when I bring it home. And if I don't love it... I better learn to, because I am pretty sure I can't return it!

  1. I'm sure you will still love it! There is something amazing about wearing such a fabulous gown...it makes you feel sort of princessy and special.

    And also? Be glad you don't have that dress in the picture above, because by the end of the day you'd be exhausted from carrying around the weight of that giant train all day. ;)
