So we finally booked the church and reception site! After saying I was NOT getting married in my hometown..we're getting married in my hometown. It's not everything I've envisioned but we decided to go with what would save us money and I have to say, I'm glad the deposit is down and I can't change my mind anymore! Our date is April 12, 2014.
Up until this point I was not even excited about dress shopping but now that there's a date and place set I can't wait to go!! I live out of state now but I know I want to shop in the PA/OH area to be with my mom and friends. I feel like I need to be very strategic since I don't have much time on my trips home. We'll be making a trip back at the end of May then probably not again until July. I'm nervous about shopping and the limited time I have at home! Especially since I'm all over the place with what styles I like.
I live about an hour north of Pittsburgh and Youngstown area is very close as well so I was wondering if any of you had suggestions of good places I should go to shop? I think Say Yes to the Dress has my expectations for the day set a certain way haha, with consultants there giving suggestions and what not. I want to be free to maybe browse but also want someone to be there and not helping a bunch of other people at the same time. I guess I don't know what to really expect since I've never been before?
Sorry for the long post but does any one have good suggestions in/north of Pittsburgh or nearby Ohio? Also, any suggestions for the actual dress shopping process? Thanks for your help!!
