Ok, so you’ve seen all of the dresses that I tried on now (or most of them anyway), here are the five finalists that I narrowed it down to:

1. Casablanca

2. Nicole Miller

3. Lambert Creations - Katarine

4. Lambert Creations

5. Lambert Creations

… and the winner is… (insert trumpet solo here) dress #4 by Lambert Creations!!!! Here are some more pictures of the dress from my first fitting.

There was just something about this dress for me. I didn’t want to get it because it was actually $2,400 and I set my price limit at $2,000… but it kept creeping into my mind and I actually started having dreams about it! I really did try to talk myself out of it, but my gut was just telling me to get this dress. In the end, my gut overcame my fiscal conscience and I gave in and bought it.

I think one of the things that I love about this dress is that I’ve never seen it before, and I am, in fact, the first American bride to wear it. I guess that makes me feel cool or something, hehe. But in all seriousness, I have always danced to the beat of my own drummer in life, and I didn’t like the idea of having the same dress as thousands of other girls. My mother calls this quality in me “being contrary” and she’s probably right. I’ve always gotta do things my own way. Ah well… it’s a beautiful dress regardless of my motives.

So ladies, what do you think of THE dress? Would you have picked the same one if you were me? How did you know when you found the right dress?
