( This is Not my dress just a pretty picture Mine is a surprise:) )
Today I found my dress. I didn't go store to store, rack to rack, or dress to dress. I just stood around and people dressed me in pieces of this and that for a couple of hours. It was lovely! After YEARS of watching "Say yes to the dress" and different wedding shows I had this idea of dress shopping being something comparable to a R.L. Stein book or Tim Burton film; I was pleasantly surprised to have a Nicholas Sparks moment.
I had heard of Gowns by Pamela a few times but never really thought much of it, but after trying on a dress at a different bridal store that was 1,000 and NOT what I wanted at all but would have settled for... I decided to give renting a dress a shot. It was a GREAT experience! I told her what I wanted and she gave it too me exactly and even make suggestions of what would look good with what I liked without making me feel pressured or like it was going to cost me a ton extra to get what was going to make "the dress".
She worked with me on all my dates and I even get to take it to do Bridals when I need too! And it was so afforable! with alterations, veil, (a few other bride essentials) and renting the dress for 2 weeks the dress what almost a steal. I never thought being a bigger girl I would really find a dress so beautiful and have so many options as well. I couldn't be happier with my dress and I can't wait to wear it for Mike. He is going crazy knowing everyone else gets to see it and he doesn't yet! Until next time!
