Last weekend was a pretty eventful weekend. We went out with a bunch of friends for dinner on Friday and had game night at the house. Mom & Joe came to town that night. My grandparents decided to come down on Saturday. I had an appointment at 1 p.m. at David's Bridal with Krystle (who's wedding I'm in). Tracy (BM) and Christie (MOH) were able to come as well as my friend Melissa.
Before I even started searching through the dresses, I gave each of the girls, including Krystle, a gift to open. Krystle, Melissa and I have recently all became close and I wanted them to be a part of the special day. So I bought each of the girls a cute Tumbler Glass with a "BRIDESMAID" logo on it, wrapped it up and boxed it. Inside the box of Melissa & Krystle's... I wrote "I would love for you to be a Bridesmaid in my wedding." Both were so happy and said yes. I think Melissa even shed a little tear ;)
I guess I probably tried on 12 or so dresses....but it was the 5th one ... when I knew! Of course I can't say much about it, as Dave reads my blog. But it's perfect. Things I was considering while looking for a dress besides looking good .. I had to remember the wedding is planned for outdoors in May. So it should be pretty warm so I didn't want anything to fitting or heavy. The dress is perfect!! As soon as I walked out in, everyone smiled and nodded their head. =) So we decided to go ahead and buy it!
While we were there, we decided to look at some bridesmaid dresses and boy am I glad we did. As stated before, the colors are Pink and Orange. We looked at the two colors and boy oh boy is David's Bridals Tangerine color BRIGHT!! So we've decided for the girls to wear "Watermelon" and will carry orange flow
ers. We'll do something else to make to MOHs stand out.We picked out two different dresses...but we decided to go with this Y-neck that Christie and Melissa have on in this picture.
YAY!!! More things to mark off the list.
Dave and I are doing the Bridge Run this weekend, but will be heading to Men's Warehouse next weekend to start looking at options for the guys to wear. He's still set on letting the guys wear Rainbows with their suits. So luckily David's Bridal makes "Watermelon" flip flops that match perfectly so the girls can wear those for the reception.
Until next time!
