I am so excited because I have finally purchased my wedding dress! I did not realise how stressful it would be to find a wedding dress, I had an expectation that I would really enjoy the process and it would be completely romantic and a fun thing to do. Feeling like Cinderella, what more could a girl ask for? Instead I found it to be a completely deflating process! So depressing!
If I were a boutique shop owner I'd ensure that all woman feel like Cinderella whilst shopping for their dress. From a personal view I'd make sure the following;
- Dresses fit and aren't 3 sizes too big or too small when you try them on.
- Dresses are showcased in all the colours they are available in so you can try on both the white and the ivory version.
- Dresses that are reasonably priced. (I completely do not understand the cost associated with wedding dresses and that seriously deflated my enthusiasm when shopping!!)
- Lightweight dresses shouldn't make a size 8 girl feel anorexic (every single satin or lacy dress I tried on my hips felt like they were protruding out of the gown!!)
- Shop assistants that are helpful and not up-themselves!
To be fair I should probably note that some of the boutiques that I went to did cater for me in all of these ways, and there were only a couple who did not! Has anyone else felt the same way shopping for their dresses?
So I now have the dress on order and completely excited.. I would explain more about the dress but I have concerns that my fiance might spy out the details and therefore spoil the suprise!
However I will include an image of the shoes that I have chosen. I found them on sale 75% and they are absolutely perfect! You can't see the heel in this picture but they are quite high... I'll just have to make sure I have a pair of thongs handy for later in the evening! Hahaha!
Speak to ya'll soon
