Dress Shopping

Even though I’m too superstitious to show you my actual dress (well, I guess I couldn’t even if I wanted to – I don’t have a picture of it!), I couldn’t not talk about that part of the wedding planning process – it’s one of the best parts!  The pictures I’m including here are from my first trip – there were three main contenders, all pictured below.  Which one do you think was my favorite?

The first one is from Melissa Sweet’s Reverie line.  The style is Eze.

The second one is by Jim Hjelm, style 8800

The amazing back of the dress:

Dress three is style 1330from L’ezu:

Do I like it better with a sash?

The beautiful back – I love the organza pleats!

So which one do you like best?  Which do you think was my favorite?  I tried on seemingly millions and while these three were the obvious favorites, I knew none of them were “the one” – I just didn’t have that feeling, you know?

But don’t worry, I did find “the one” and it is perfect.  I can’t wait to share it with you guys… you just going to have to wait until after the wedding!

we heart your comments!

They are all so pretty on you!!! But I think I like the L’ezu the best (with sash). I love the back pleats on the train, it adds just the right amount of detail. You can’t go wrong, they are all awesome!

Such a great silhouette for you! I agree w/Dina; I adore the L’ezu with sash

I dont know which one you liked but my favorite is for sure the Jim Hjelm

I like them all! You definitely look happy, which is a good start no matter what the dress is.

I love the first dress, it accentuates your small waist, the flowers are very romantic with the draping, very modern and different, dont like the other 2 very plain and look like every other wedding dress out there…hope this helps.
