The First Reveal

August 24th, 2011 @ 1:35 pm by Mrs. Ticket

In case you missed confessions

The First Reveal :  wedding riverside wedding dress Nomrtic011 NoMrTic01


The final dress for my appointment was a tea length dress, which really wasn’t something I pictured myself in. I had always wanted a floor-length white dress. But it was pretty and I hadn’t loved anything else I had tried on so I figured I would give it a shot.

I loved it! The look on my face made that quite clear—it was by far my favorite of ALL the dresses I had tried on that day. It was comfortable and light; it had a vintage appeal to it. I just loved it. As I was reveling in the glory of its prettiness I could hear Mama Ticket comment, “Well, it’s a very pretty dress—just not for a wedding.” Sorry Mama Ticket… I hate to disappoint, but this was it. This was the dress I was going home with. She quickly tried to hop on board once she saw how much I loved it and she supported my decision to buy it. In an effort to appease Mama Ticket I ordered the dress in white. I figured if I was getting a short dress, which I knew she was unhappy with, the least I could do was wear white (which she had been absolutely adamant about). And with that, we were off.

I’m sure you’ve guessed by now that isn’t the end of the dress story.

Lmao!!!! That’s the dress I want!!! I fell in love with it when I saw it online! I’m so happy to see it on someone else, it solidifies my decision, though I haven’t tried it on yet… Where did you get it from?

I assure you there is a happy ending to this story but sadly not without a little drama in the middle (dress drama seems to follow me if you remember my MOB Dress posts).

@LadieLexx - This dress was from David’s Bridal it was $550 as a plus size and $500 as a normal size I believe (unless you catch it on sale which as mentioned before David’s Bridal is constantly having sales). They actually can order it for you in normal sizes though they don’t have them in the store to try on. It is SO pretty in person, pictures don’t do the dress justice.

I will not be showing Momma Kettle this photo as I managed to get a tea length dress that wasn’t white. I don’t want her to get buyer’s remorse on my behalf cause I lurv my dress. I lurv yours too. The length is perfect for you!
