Big News!

Well, its big news for me. I have bought my dress. There will be no pictures of my dress here, not that Chris actually ever looks at this, but if for some reason he did, I want him to be surprised about my dress!

I ordered my dress at the wonderful Elegant Bridals is Augusta. I was thrilled with my experience there. Mom and Jenny went with me. My first shopping trip was in Atlanta. I turned up empty handed at that place, but had a good day with my sisters and mom. Anna made a special "wedding dress shopping brunch" and was sure to serve it on my Granny's old dishes...for dramatic effect! It was a lot of fun, and even though I didn't find my dress that day, I enjoyed the day!

Throughout my two shopping trips, Cail and Jenny both had the chance the try on the bridesmaid dress. (which is now confirmed!) Both of them looked great in the dress, and seemed to like it. (if they didn't like it, they sure put on a good show!)

In other news, I have several things that are booked. I have reserved a D.J., a minister, our venue, and our florist/photographer. The more big things we get taken care of, the closer we get to worrying about the details. We still have not met with the caterer, which will be the last thing we need to do to get all of our "big picture" items taken care of. Much to Moms excitement, we will soon be able to start talking about centerpieces, decoration and arrangement! Her most favorite parts!

That's all I have for now. Enjoy a few pictures from the shopping adventures of the past few weeks.






Me - Veil Shopping!












With Mom and Anna...and hundreds of dresses! Yikes!


















Cail smiling at how much she likes my choice in bridesmaid dresses!























Jenny realizing we are gonna have to take about a foot off the bottom of this dress for it to fit her!!













That's all for now. More to come as more develops.

Love,

Leigh
