Check! Found The dress!

SO Friday my mom, future MIL and I went to the Wedding Shoppe to try on dresses since they were having a Maggie Sottero trunk show.  I worked with Ashley who was wonderful.  I'm a "bigger" bride so was worried about being able to try stuff on.  Well I tried on about 5 dresses, and the last one was the one.  I tried it on and I really, really liked it, but then it grew on me even more and I ended up wearing it for like 45 mins!  I didn't want to take it off!  It totally NOT what I went in looking for, but I think it suits me.  It even has the big train I wanted. 

I'm not sure how to post pics, but here is a link to the dress on the designer's website.

    Beautiful gown!  It's so much fun to find THE DRESS.  I love the corset closure on the back.  What color are you getting it in?

    Thanks guys!  Yes, the Maggie dresses are great.  I really like the corset back as you can give yourself an incredible figure with it!  There is a lot of boning in there too which also helps.  I'm a bit of a bigger bride and this dress gave me a awesome hourglass figure.  I was there at 1:30 on Friday, although we didn't leave until closer to 5 because we also looked at BM and MOB and MOG dresses as well.  Anyway, I would really recommend the Wedding Shoppe, they were great to work with and very organized.  Plus, they have everything there.

    My D was also at the Wedding Shoppe this weekend and found her dress. It is also a Maggie and very beautiful on her. We both cried. Didn't have any luck with BM dresses, though.
