Wedding Dress Search

Wedding dress shopping has officially commenced. Three of my four (we missed sweet Alana who lives up in NJ) gorgeous bridesmaids accompanied me on a Sunday afternoon trip to a couple bridal stores. To be honest, I was a bit discouraged before even getting to the first store. I am extremely picky in nearly every aspect of my life, and I was certain I wouldn't find a single dress that would please me.

To my surprise, I ended up not being able to choose between two favorites. Two very different favorites. Two favorites that look nothing like the dresses upon dresses I have been pinning to my Pinterest board nuptials for the past two years. So I think I have come to the conclusion I am going to keep the search going. I still have a year, right?!

Here was some of my inspiration before actually heading to the shops:

I love the simplicity of this sweetheart top flowy gown.

Other than the fact that the top is see-through, I love the detail, but also love how no-fuss it seems to be.

This may look more like a nightgown than a wedding gown, but I adore it. It's the casual, fun, and easy look I think I am going for.

Although the skirt on this is a little more full than preference, the low back is insanely gorgeous!

The Mr. has a thing for short wedding dresses, and I love how this is sort of a sophisticated play on the timeless doily! The cut-out lacy back shows just the right amount of skin while staying modest.

XOXO,
