My Wedding Dress

From the time you're a little girl, it's something you think about. At least I think most girls do. You see your older cousins/sisters and role models get married, you watch the classic Disney princess movies and you dream. What will my wedding dress look like? I never really knew exactly what I wanted. But I knew I wanted something I loved.

After we got engaged, I knew my dress was something I was going to be pretty particular about. I went shopping multiple times and finally (and accidentally) came across my dress.

I loved loved loved the lace and fell in love with the back! It was simple and classic. Perfect for me! There had to be alterations made as it was strapless and I wanted/needed sleeves. I gave the alterations lady at The Perfect Dress (Where I bought my dress. Highly recommend!) a picture of what I envisioned the neckline and sleeves to to look like and she went to work.

It's amazing that my dress started looking like this...

 I'll spare you the snapshots of me in it pre-alterations.

And ended up looking like this... 

I loved it. I wouldn't change one thing about it!
