Good Things Come to Those Who Wait

November 23rd, 2011 @ 1:51 pm by Miss Warbler

Remember the frustration I felt shopping with my mom for her dress? Well, it was all for naught because she found her dress! Without me. I guess shopping with me put too much pressure on her shoulders. Sometimes it’s better to just step back and trust the woman who brought you into this world. I received an excited phone call from her over the weekend. Not only did she find her dress, she also found dresses for my Special Ops Flower Girls (shhh, we’re working on something). Sweet. Now that all of my ladies have their dresses, it’s the guys’ turn! Good luck Mr. Warbs!

I have no idea which store she purchased these dresses from. When I asked she could only say, “Um…it was a store next to Target.” Only my mother. Here are the dresses! Sorry about the photo quality.

Mama Warbs dancing around in her pretty dress

If you can’t tell Mama Warbs’ dress is burgundy with a black overlay. She got her short hemline too. Sassy. I’m happy with all of the dresses. I was slightly worried about the pink dresses at first, but the girls are so young I think they can pull it off. To be completely honest, I’m at the point right now where the less decisions I have to make, the better. Seriously. Wedding planning has taken its toll on me. Five more months!

Flower Girl Lala tried alternative dress styles. She was denied.

How involved were you in picking your attendants’ dresses? Were you peeved or happy if the decision was taken out of your hands?

Mama Warbler is awesome!

I’m excited to help narrow down the options for our flower girls (we’re going to give her 4-5 choices and let her pick from there). I have to admit that I don’t really care what the little boys wear. They’re going to look cute no matter what they have on!

Thanks ladies!
@Miss Mink: It’s true the little ones look cute in pretty much whatever they wear!
@Mrs. Funnel Cake: Haha I’m having the opposite reaction. 5 months is gonna be here before I know it! My brain keeps screaming “more time!”

Love your mama’s dress. And I keep telling my mother to buy what she wants; she can’t seem to find anything she really likes.

Everyone involved in the wedding (all 60 of them), seem to want my input on what they’re going to wear. I’m happy to shop with them, but checking out poorly lit cell phone pics is always an interesting challenge. My grandmother of the silver accessories, keeps changing her mind about what she’s going to wear. I’ve never known her to be so indecisive at any other point in her life, so I told her to just wear what she’ll feel most comfortable in.
