White and Sparkly!

Yesterday I made my first appointment to go try on wedding dresses!! :) I am sooo excited! A long time ago I had found this cute little shop in Seattle called I Do Bridal! The outside is painted pink and black and it just caught my eye! And then, my favorite designer is Maggie Sottero and their website said they carry her dresses! So that was the plan until recently. Recently I just thought it was going to be too much of a hassle to get my mom, sister and mother-in-law up there! So I settled for this little shop in Spokane!!

But... every now and then I keep going back to this cute little pink shop downtown Seattle! Sooooo maybe it was a sign! So yesterday I was looking at wedding dresses online and decided to check out the website for I Do Bridal again. It said they had some upcoming events and I decided to check them out! Right when it popped up....I'll admit....I screamed haha!! On the page it said they were having a Maggie Sottero Trunk Show the weekend of July 16th!!!!! I mean c'mon people...this is a dream come true! So the next day I made an appointment for Sunday July 17th at 11am!! Its going to be an early morning but oh well its totally worth it!

Before I go to Seattle though, I think I am going to go David's Bridal just to try on dresses and see what styles I like best so when I go to Seattle I kind of have something in mind! But I don't really want to buy a dress from David's Bridal....! So that is the plan!!!
Hopefully I will come home with a dress by Maggie Sottero!! :)

Wish me luck!!

I am soooo excited to get married!!! I'm starting a count down :) I know, kind of silly but hey! its only one day that is truly mine!!! This weekend was my cousins wedding...which was ABSOLUTELY beautiful!! I got allll excited this weekend because our wedding will be somewhat similar. They had their wedding at this awesome barn in Dayton and everyone camped out all weekend!! It was super fun and just gave me relief that mine will also be successful and fun!
I was super nervous about doing a somehwat destination wedding because I am close to all my family and want them all to be there!! But after this weekend I know it is now possible for everyone to make it and it will be an awesome weekend getaway filled with food, dancing, love and family!!!
So with all this excitement I thought I would start a countdown!!
I am also sooo excited for our honeymoon! I love spending time with James and we always have a blast on our vacations!! Its going to be soo fun and relaxing and a great way for us to start our life together!!!
This next year is filled with soo much excitement and I can't wait for it all to unfold with wedding dress shopping, bridal showers, decorating, planning, and finally the wedding! :)
EEEKKKK!!!!
Wish I had some more fun details about the wedding but I don't unfortunately!!
