My Dress 3 photo 10

~~Updated 1/12/10~~

My MOH, one of my bridesmaids, and I went shopping for their dresses last weekend. We went to a few local bridal shops and the last one was Alfred Angelo. While I was at Alfred Angelo, waiting for them to come out of the dressing room, the consultant was chatting me up and long story short, she was so nervous for me since I hadn't pick out my dress yet! With the wedding being only 7 months away, she convinced me to try on some dresses. I found "My love!" =]

They wouldn't let us take pictures until it was paid for, which I didn't mind because I'm planning on losing more weight so I will look absolutely STUNNING when I put MINE on! =]

But we snuck a few pictures lol

My Dress 3 photo 11

It will be about 3 months before I recieve it! YAY!

My MOH is my best friend Stacy. We've gone thru so much together! Love her!

My MOH Bridesmaids photo 1 My MOH Bridesmaids photo 2

Her dress (The middle one)

I like the other two for the bridesmaids.

We're probably going to have the BM dresses made so these are ideas of what they may like.

:::I gave this to each of my BMs to let them know what to expect money-wise:::

I got the little rhinestones and flowers at Target =]

My MOH Bridesmaids photo 3

It says:

SAVE, SAVE, SAVE up!

Now that I

GAVE, GAVE, GAVE

you a heads up!

 

We all love SURPRISES, but not when it comes to spending money…

 I wanted to let you all know ahead of time how much dress, hair and makeup will cost

For the BIG day…

Hair: $65

Full Makeup: $65

Dress: Aprox. $150

Accessories/Shoes: Aprox. $50

Total= about $350

Be prepared for a dress deposit at the end of February.

I know Christmas is coming and it’s a rough time to save money but I wanted to allow you enough time to plan for wedding details

 

Thanks so much for being a part of our special day!

 

 

Lots of Love,

Heather Aka Future Mrs. D!

I rounded up on the prices just in case for a cusion.

I got this idea from BlingBride22's bio- Thanks girl!!

I also put this in with it:
