My "Dream Dress" Weekend


I hope everyone had a good weekend! Mine was great :-) I spent it doing my hair, cleaning up my room, went to dinner with a friend, and then church Sunday with my fiance'. I also have the best news---Sunday afternoon, my family and I went dress shopping and I found my dream dress. I cried like a baby when I put it on and saw myself in the mirror. I knew I HAD TO HAVE IT! I'd been dreaming about that dress since the first time I saw it. So I knew it had to be THE ONE. I never thought I would get emotional over a dress but, you never know until you are in the moment.

With that huge purchase out of the way, I can breathe a bit easier and focus on the little things that will go into the wedding. Finding my dress was the highlight of my weekend and I must say my family (mom, dad, grandma and little sis) were so supportive. They sat there as I tried on gown after gown. I have the best family, ever. I cannot wait until my wedding day *blushing*

I also saw my girl Cortnie from, Style Lust pages this weekend. I picked up an order for myself, as well as a few other clutches for Christmas gifts. She has two new bags on her Etsy site. To see them, click HERE or HERE. She is such a sweetheart :-)

Below are pics I wore to church, as well as Sunday afternoon to go dress hunting. Enjoy!

Blessings :-)
