Well, I have officially found my wedding dress!
I have a million cute stories about the process, but some of these will have to wait until after Robert and I get married. I am being super careful about not sharing too much because I love surprises and want him to be completely surprised the day of the wedding. We aren’t going to do a first look because we’re both pretty traditional and want to see each other for the first time at the ceremony. I’m really excited about a lot of moments, but our first time seeing each other is one of two moments I am most excited about.
Dress shopping was such a fun experience and a small part of me is sad that it’s over, but I’m so thrilled with how the entire process went. I tried on every single style dress imaginable, and the one I chose was the only one that made my mom cry. That was the moment she and I both knew I had found the perfect dress.
I can’t wait to share more with you all, but I am so happy that I can give little peeks into our journey on here. I have a lot of fun photos in wedding dresses I’ll share after we get married, but I don’t want Robert seeing me in any of the gowns until this fall (And he’s an avid reader of my blog — right, babe? 😉 ).
Next on my list: Find and message the rest of the vendors I need, choose some beautiful bridesmaid dresses, and GO CAKE TASTING!! I think before I met Robert the most exciting part about planning a wedding always seemed like it would be the many opportunities for cake tasting. I will most definitely be writing a lot about this, as dessert is one of my biggest passions in life.
Yay! Congrats!! I’m just now looking for someone to alter and they’re saying they need at least 2 months for turn around, so just keep that in mind. 🙂
I’m having my caterer make my cake and cupcakes to save on delivery fee, and because I’m planning my wedding 4 hours away, I won’t be able to do any tastings. 😦 I hope it all tastes ok… the menu and cake flavors sound amazing though so I’m sure it will be fine.

Thanks so much girl!! Luckily my shop does the alterations and they promised I’d have my dress ready in time, but it’s crazy how much goes into getting a dress! I’m now looking around for a veil, shoes, and jewelry.
I think the food is one of the least important parts of the day somehow. I always have the most fun dancing and at the ceremonies at weddings! I am sure your food will be fantastic, and your day will be even better! What’s your date?
