Ok so last week at work Emily (my boss) told me I could get an awesome discount at a dress at Mia OR Brickhouse!! So me and mom celebrated Wedding Fun Day and went to both places last Wednesday to try on dresses. We didn't find "the one" but we made some progress. My mother actually thought I looked good in all of these dresses...mostly, and she did offer to sign me up for weight watchers later that night but, eh, baby steps. I was surprised that I liked the plainest dress as one of my favorites. BUT it could be because it reminded me of a dress that Marilyn Monroe wore in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes! My favorite...if I had an unlimited budget, would be this beautiful, super sparkly dress. Unfortunately, even with my awesome discount, it doesn't fit into the budget. :( In between trying on dresses, we met with a photographer. She was cool, pictures were great she just seemed a little...lost? So the search for an amazing photographer (for an even better price) continues! I also found an awesome makeup artist that would only cost the girls $120 each. The portfolio was great..except they didnt appear to have any eye makeup on. Im thinking I will get a trial before booking. Last Friday, I went to a ghetto bridal shop (alone!) to try on this one specific dress. Unfortunately this specific dress was a size 4 and I couldn't get it back over my shoulders!! No one was helping me and there were a lot of people outside the dressing room so I got in every imaginable position to get that dress off!! I then went into panic mode, started sweating and the satin fabric started sticking to my skin. So finally (after I RIPPED the dress and still couldnt get it off!!) I called the sales girl in the room to get it off. She got it off me, no problem but I was so humiliated I bolted out of that store! I called MOH Stacy right after and told her my oh-so-embarrassing story!
Due to the humiliating dress incidence, I started weight watchers yesterday. Not only for the wedding but for Mexico in June as well! I only have .5 points left for tonight but I am gonna hit the gym to try to get enough points to eat a WW ice cream!
