And, no I don't have 27 bridesmaids dresses in my closet. I do, however, have 3 wedding dresses as of right now. Last January I ordered the perfect dress (or so I thought) from a bridal shop. It's actually a bridesmaid's dress but could work either way. The one I tried on was in black. It was very slimming and flattering (one in the same). I ordered it in ivory. Well, when the dress arrived about 6 weeks later you'll imagine my surprise when the dress I picked up was...yellow. Mom said it's called candlelight ivory. Looks yellow to me. And with the the ruching effect, which now just looks like layers of ruffle pillows, I look like the Michelin Man.
No joke. So, it's staying in it's bag until I can sell it on Craigslist or in a consignment shop. Then I was shopping with my friend Barbara in Snellville and we ran into a TJ Maxx. I saw the cutest little white linen summer dress and tried it on. It seemed simple and perfect so it became my new wedding dress. Then I was on Pinterest (imagine that!) and I found a dress that I simply must have. It's the Lauren Conrad white lace dress. I hate posting a picture of it because it won't look like that on me.
I emailed Jeff's mom and asked her if she would be interested in making my wedding dress (fingers and toes crossed). She said yes! She is already working on it and even found a pattern for the same thing. Mine will come to my knees, no mid-thigh dress for me please. I'm really excited for the end result (especially after I lose weight, fingers and toes crossed again!).Speaking of Katherine Heigl movies I'm super excited to see One for the Money this weekend.
I've read all the books (except the latest, number 18 I think) and they are all so fun. I hope the movie lives up to the fun of the book.

I'm really excited to see that too. Maybe you could dye the first dress black??
