The Dress(es), Part II
Rich's mom, my mom, my two Bridesmaids (Paloma and Adrienne), and I all went to Brides by Demetrio's on Sunday. I tried on dress number one (more form fitting/A-line) and when I walked out I received a lot of compliments on the dress. So, I went back into the dressing room and tried on dress number two (definitely a princess gown with a long train), when I walked out I heard everyone gasp and a chorus of "ooh's" and "awe's." I knew right then that the second dress was THE DRESS! I was so thrilled!!! I also picked out my veil (cathedral with satin trim) which looks AWESOME with the long train of my dress........soooo excited!!!
Since two of my Bridesmaids were there I had them try on the potential Bridesmaid dress to get their opinions. They loved them!!!! They loved the color and the style of the dress. So, I can check Bridesmaid dresses off of my list. Below is a picture of the Bridesmaid dresses, but the colors are reversed in the picture below (I love Bill Levkoff).
Lastly, I was able to find the Flower Girl dress for my niece, Rylie (she will be 5 1/2 when we get married). She is so tall and slender that this dress will look ADORABLE on her!
I am at a loss of words! I cannot believe how smoothly everything went. I have my wedding dress, veil, Bridesmaid dresses, and Flower Girl dress! I had always imagined that it would be an agonizing process trying to find the perfect dress. My wedding consultant at Demetrio's, Michelle, was AWESOME and made the process so easy. I couldn't believe that Rich's parents came down so that his mom could help me pick out my dress, that was SOOO SWEET!!!! My friends were more than happy to take time out of their Sunday and come along to help out. And of course, my mom always is willing to put everything down to come help me out! I couldn't ask for better friends and family!!!!

I LOVE the girls' dresses, so elegant and classic. Everything is going to be beautiful! And the flower girl dress, too precious!
And, I love the idea of the maid of honor having a special dress, that is, if you think it would look alright. It's one easy way to really make her feel special and, personally, I think adds some interest to the "matching" aspect of the BM dresses. I'll look forward to seeing what you decide!
