Show Us Your Life- Wedding Dress Edition

Ok, so this is my first time participating in Kelly's Korner "Show us where you live..." and I'm super excited! This Friday is all about your wedding dress and I absolutely loved mine! The day I found my dress was actually the first day I really looked at dresses. I had been looking online and thought I knew what I wanted but sure enough when I tried that style on...it looked awful!
We went to Terry Costa in Dallas and it was so fun because all my bridesmaids, my mom, and my sister were even there. I just remember the ladies kept bringing me dress after dress until we found "the one".
Trying on all the dresses...


I LOVE this picture...



The dress I ended up with was off white, strapless, with a slight sweetheart neckline. It "poofed" out a little at the bottom and had really beautiful detailing all throughout the dress even down to the train.

On my wedding day...putting on my shoes...

I really loved all the details in my dress, like the little broach on the empire waist. I wore the same veil that my mom wore on her wedding day which was also really special : )

And this is one of my favorite pictures from that day. I love the camera angel and how it really shows off the train of my dress.


And also like Kelly, I love TLC's "Say Yes to the Dress" and when I watch it I think about if I had to pick a different dress I would pick one like this:

I'm always envious of people with beautiful photos -- and you've got beautiful photos. What a great dress -- I love the subtle details.
