After many hours of searching every store we could think of, Mae & I finally decided on a dress. We took a chance on Ebay. I had a friend bid for me as I was too busy having a girls night out with friends (thanks Ashley for hanging at home that evening). She got us a great deal too! This is the Dessy 2015, which sells regular price for $130-180. Ashley got the winning bid plus shipping for a whopping $35! Awesome!

Flower Girl Dress...
Just bought this taffeta dress for Lil Miss Lily on ebay. She will be super cute in it. The dress was quite a deal, only $18 + shipping. Think I will change the flower to red when it comes in if it's an easy task.

It's All About the Dress
You know how they say 'when you find the right dress you will just know...' It's so true!
I spent a good 3 hrs trying on dresses at the very popular bridal chain store that many loathe (including myself). After several hours I was still unimpressed with the store & their dresses... I decided I would have to venture elsewhere in order to find MY dress.
I decided to put dress shopping on hold. Instead we decided to do one of our gift registries. While we were 'shopping' a woman stopped us. She informed me of a bridal store in town that is going out of business. The bank just recently took over all sales & slashed all the prices 60% off! We ventured to the store the next day, kids in tow...
I figured an $800 budget for a dress... With the help of my FH I tried on every dress they had to offer in my size. It was when I tried on the Maggie Sottero that I just knew 'This is my dress!' The fit will be perfect with some minor alterations. The best part about the whole thing was the price... I got the dress, a guest book, and a cute lil white purse for the magical price of $360!!!!
