Wedding Dress

OK, I am soooooooooo late for this one (that's what happens when you don't get on the computer!), but Betty Beguiles asked people to post pictures of their wedding dress and say a little something about them.

My mom came down to South Carolina to help me look for a dress. I was pretty sure I wanted something plain and simple. Nothing fancy. Nothing complicated. I'm not a "frou-frou"y kind of person.

We went to the first bridal shop and the woman dragged out this dress that I just wanted to laugh at. Are you serious? It was everything I was NOT looking for in a dress; however, as the time went on, and more dresses were tried on, my mom and I both thought it was so funny that the dress I finally picked out was the one I had shunned at the beginning....



We got married in 1996... well before digital cameras... so you'll have to excuse the scanned image.

Thank you! Not at all what I had in mind, but there you go!

What did YOUR dress look like?

This is so pretty! I have to admit that I like the dresses from the nineties and before so much more than the modern style. I have been caught off guard many times by a wedding dress that looks more like a slip than a formal gown. Your dress could not be more elegant. Simply lovely.
