I'm kind of glad that my wedding wasn't all glitz and glamour but I still felt beautiful that day. Well, mostly. I do remember my hair getting really wilted and flat by the time the reception rolled around!JennaKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10724959154514125980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2075354260507238406.post-72865057909260510612012-04-12T12:53:28.754-06:002012-04-12T12:53:28.754-06:00I also had 2 dresses--one for the temple and one f...I also had 2 dresses--one for the temple and one for the reception. It is a lot of money to buy a second one, but out of vanity, I REALLY wanted another dress. And I wanted it to be pretty, and make me look good. I still love looking at myself in pictures (I'm fairly vain, if you can't tell). I still wear the dress I was married in, and still have (but don't wear) the dress for pictures and such. I dream of putting it on again and having it fit the same. *sigh*<br />But more than my dress, when I think of my wedding day, I think of the people who were there and the sacrifices they made to come (Like you!) and how I felt. Those are the most important things.<br />Most other people who were there remember how late I was and how long they had to wait for me. <br />I choose to think of the positive. :)BYU Hottiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13824111025145579593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2075354260507238406.post-6877588275709127382011-04-24T20:17:18.358-06:002011-04-24T20:17:18.358-06:00I can't watch that show.

They were both exactly what I wanted and fit perfectly. No drama. I'd actually bought the fabric for the wedding dress several years before our wedding when I worked at a fabric store and could use my employee discount.<br /><br />I still wear the temple dress. And the reception dress is going to be cannibalized into other things eventually.<br /><br />Stopping by from MMB.Roxiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02798242755273465376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2075354260507238406.post-39553888098274736282011-04-23T21:07:11.043-06:002011-04-23T21:07:11.043-06:00I bought the first dress I tried on.

I totally agree with you on every point.<br /><br />You looked gorgeous at your wedding. Your dress was beautiful.<br /><br />You know what is funny to me about that show, a lot of the girls pick the same dress, that sleazy looking see-through thing (at least they did in the first few seasons) and I wondered why these women couldn't have done the same thing you did. <br /><br />My mom made my dress and it took me all of 15 minutes to pick out the pattern and then she chose the fabric. I think it may have cost around $100 and the dress fit me perfectly and beautifully. <br /><br />And as wonderful and beautiful as my wedding day was and reception after---it was just a beginning. I have 13 years of wonderful experiences. I still have that and we didn't spend thousands of dollars on the dress, reception or anything.Tiffany Wacaserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08224661646987749451noreply@blogger.com
