Could this be it?

Wedding dress shopping can be summed up in one word ... Agonizing.

I was beginning to hate trying on beautiful and expensive dresses ... which is something that should be fun.

However, this past weekend I went shopping yet again with my mom, maid of honor Adrienne and Aunt Ruth. Aunt Ruth said that no matter what, we were going to find the dress. I didn't believe her.

However, there must be something about aunts because I think I DID find the dress!



It's by a designer called Pattis Bridal. First of all, I love the skirt. It has pick-ups with a little bit of toule sticking out of the bottom. The mid section has a bit of rouching and beading. The top part has a wonderful and princessy sweetheart neckline. However, that part does have some embroidery that I'm not fond of. The flowers look cartoony.


The good thing is the embroidery is attached to English netting, which can be removed. So, my thought is this ... I'll have the seamstress remove that part and replace the netting with some colored toule ... like green maybe. Then, I'll repeat that color (with some other colors maybe?) in the toule that sticks out from the bottom of the skirt.

I will definitely follow with more photos.
