dress search moral of the story...

I want to be married, all this dress stuff seem a bit extraneous, though I admit it can be fun. (Not saying that having all this extra stuff means you don't really want to get married, it can! It's just not me).

I confirm, more then ever, to my NO list, though have added NO bows and now know to look into bridesmaid dresses or maybe some sort of cotton (I know, this is controversial to some!). I'll post some pictures at some point. It's not as scary or scandalous as it seems...

Our desire is to have a simple and honest day and I feel like dressing like myself, in a way that feels truly comfortable, is one way to do this.

The Boy will be back (almost) any day now, so I will turn my focus from some of this fluff to our real relationship and just keep my eyes open in the back of small boutiques for the right dress. I am grateful for this experience (and the girls that went with me!), as the confirmation that this trip gave me, to follow myself and my thoughts (regarding dresses, wedding stuff, life stuff etc.), has been very valuable. So now when I see the dress in that boutique, I will get it, no doubts, because I have seen the other side (with store endorsed wedding credit cards? huh?) and I prefer simplicity.
