Dress Shopping Day

Saturday I went out with Kevin's Mom (Juanita), his sisters (Sharon & Denise) and his 5 year old niece (Olivia) for a girl's dress shopping day. We hit Amari Bridal in Franklin after starting *and spilling* some coffee. The attendant was very helpful, and we pretty much had the whole place to ourselves. Olivia had already found the flower girl section upon walking in, haha. We spent a few hours of in and out of the dressing room, Olivia and I trying on and parading around in our dresses... it was fun. :) Denise was awesome and took pictures of every dress I tried on so my Mom & Dylani could see them too. Everyone was super helpful, and we left Amari with a favorite...

So JUST IN CASE my wonderful fiance finds his way on here, I decided not to directly post the pictures of me in the dresses but instead, post links to them..

*She really loved this one... but I think she decided she'd like "Cotton Candy Pink" instead of red, haha (maybe she won't remember by next year?): http://i46.tinypic.com/11hdjcp.jpg

After Amari, the ladies treated me to lunch at the Colonel Blackinton Inn in Attleboro which was really good and got me really full. :) Then we headed to the David's Bridal in North Attleboro for another set of dress up. It was a bit busier but everyone picked out some dresses for me to try on, and Olivia had a lot more dresses to choose from. She even got her own private changing room! Turns out the first 2 dresses out of who knows how many I tried on were the ones that I ended up going back to. Completely different than one another, but really gorgeous..

It was a long day, but the ladies helped me ween all the choices down to a few! In July when my Mom & Dylani come out, we'll go and hopefully I'll make a decision!! :)
