Yep, it exists.

And these photos are horrible.  Please forgive the hair, and the cheesed out expression on my face.  I was excited.  I wish we got some pics of the train, too.  But before I knew it - I was all bustled up.







So there we are.  I finally feel like I'm getting married :) Squeeee!

    Thanks!  Really Les?  ...I hope it was good.

    But yeah, it's the dress I always pictured myself getting married in, one just like this.  Totally worth the wait.  I am so thrilled.

    [QUOTE]Reddy - we are going to have a "private moment," we are doing pics before the ceremony (our photog wants three hours!  ugh) so we will have our moment before pics start.  I'm glad I'm seeing him before.  We are both going to cry a lot, lol.

    <div>By 'private' moment you mean the photog won't be there to capture your faces?! Because that's what I was getting to. I want you to AW your 'reveal' pics like right now.</div><div>
    </div><div>I'm seriously really excited for you. This is the first knottie wedding I feel like I've followed closely from beginning to end, even the girls on my month board I didn't really pay attention to (too busy planning my own).</div>

    We keep waffling on the first look photo!  I think it would be really, really amazing to capture that moment - but at the same time, I want it to be just us so it's as raw as possible.  Having the photographer there, I think, might change it a little.  I am not sure.

    I feel so honored that you're closely following our wedding :) 

    And I am seriously blushing from everyone's very sweet comments.  Honestly.  I'm beet red right now.

    You could always have the photog just snap the one photo of Ben's face as he sees you then have him leave so you can hug it out and regain composure together. 

    But it's super sweet you want to be alone and I understand that too. Keep in mind I may or may not be trying to convince you of this because I want to see his face!

    Hehe.

    I'm so happy the dress drama worked out.  When I went shopping today, I kept thinking about you and keeping my fingers crossed that when you got to the appt., everything would be perfect.

    Apparently, my thoughts have super powers, since it all worked out!

    YAY! Not that you don't always look beautiful, but you look especially beautiful in your dress.  You're going to make such a pretty bride, and I'm sure Ben will be over the moon excited to see you in it.  (and out of it, you guys have major will power Wink)

    Hehe :) Thanks!

    I think it will be hilarious to experience him trying to get me out of the damn thing.  The corset back is gorgeous but I imagine it will be tricky for his alcohol influenced boy brain.

    Holy poop dude, you are hot!!  That dress highlights all your best assets and a wondeful way.  Oh, and the dress is pretty too!

    Re: Getting out of the corset dress, my H's BM and his wife were staying in a hotel room just down the hall from us.  I got the double awesoe of help getting out of my dress and some of the pizza they'd ordered.

    Do the photos, you'll love them afterwards.  Even if you kick the photog out after a mintue or two.  I just got to see ours yesterday and they're some of my favorites of the day.

    And you do look amazing in that dress!  We're not just saying that :)
