AW - I found my dress!

On the tip about the $99 dresses at Atlas, my mom, sister (MOH) and I went up there today to check things out. The lady who helped us was nothing short of nice and helpful. I was able to find one of the $99 dresses that fit nearly perfectly. It will just need taken in a bit in the bust (that's a first!), sleeves removed to make it sleeveless and a bustle put in. I haven't been able to find any pics online of it and the pics I've taken don't do it any sort of justice, but here are a few pics I took of it (not of me in it) and then one that I found that's similar.

ETA: I did a little searching (took a lot of time) and found the original. http://www.bonny.com/1712.html

    Thanks! I was so happy to be able to find such a beautiful dress at such an affordable price. I love that they left the original sales tags on them too because that's how I learned I saved about $500-600 after taxes!

    I know, isn't that crazy?!  And the dresses were BEAUTIFUL!  I was going in thinking they would be out of style, or not in good shape, but mine are PERFECT!  I think I made an impression at Atlas because I am a fan of theirs on Facebook and they sent out a message to all their fans about some crazy girl who couldn't make up her mind between two dresses so she got $2000 worth of gowns for $200. LOL.  

    So glad you went in!  Yay for pretty dresses and saving money :)

    Thanks everyone :-) I think I'm still in shock that I have in my possession THE DRESS! For whatever reason, it made me realize that this is really happening - Not a bad thing at all, but none of the little things I'd purchased really made me go "I'm really marrying him!"
