We went shopping yesterday for the first time and it was definitely a ton of fun

 

We went to the first store and tried on quite a few dresses, however I loved the third dress I tried on. I was too nervous to commit that early in the say so we went to 2 other dress stores. Didn't like anything at the 2nd, but at the third store, they had the same dress I loved however in a different colour & style of back. I tried it on and then for sure it was "the one".

 

I ended up ordering it yesterday! Now to wait the 5-6 months for it to come into the store!!!! It was a little bit over budget, but so worth it. It was Essence of Australia D586 in white with a corset back It's beautiful and fits my style perfectly.

 

Here are some pictures of the dress I tried on. It was ivory but I wanted it in white. The last picture is blurry but oh well! LOL

That's exactly how I found my dress too! It was the 3rd dress I tried on (picked out by my best friend) but felt it was too soon to commit to a dress... then after going to a few more stores and hating everything else (and continually referring to the 3rd dress as 'my' dress) I knew it was the one!

It's such a great feeling to find your dress, congrats!! It's beautiful on you!

 

Are you going to add the cap sleeves shown on the model or stay strapless?

I'm staying with the strapless version :)

 

I couldn't believe I had found it so easily so I just kept looking around but yet compared everything back to "The pretty lace dress". My mom knew then that it was pointless to keep looking, we tried on the dress again, and the rest is history!

 

My favourite features are the fabric under the bust, the corset back and the lace details. I'm short so it is going to be a fairly expensive alteration to bring up the detail from the lace and save it, but its sooo worth it.

 

I love simple elegance and thankfully my mom, sister (MOH) and aunt all said it was 100% a "Lisa Dress". I can't wait until it is in!

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
