I'm in love... part 2

It's confirmed, I am in love. A couple weeks ago, I mentioned the Maggie Sottero Coco and how I was dying to try on this dress because I thought it might be THE ONE. I went to a bridal shop in Orlando that had the dress. They happened to have the sample in my size so it fit perfectly. So I got the dress on and stood in front of the mirror for awhile admiring myself. It was just beautiful. It looks even better on me than I would have imagined!

So I had a couple other dresses to try on. I also tried on the Maggie Sottero Sandrina. it was a really pretty mermaid dress but just did not have that wow factor like the Coco. I didn't keep that one on long. The next dress did not even make it out of the fitting room. The last dress I tried on was ok, but seriously I had already found what I was looking for. So I ended with putting the Coco back on and standing in front of the mirror for another 10 minutes. I did not want to take it off. The girls there were really helpful. Apparently the dress comes in 2 different fabrics (taffeta and french tafetta). Umm yeah I couldn't really tell the difference, so they said to save myself $400.

I can't wait til my twin sis comes next weekend so I can show her this dress. I mean we are gonna go to a few other shops (when else would I ever get the chance to try on wedding gowns?) and I'll try on more dresses. But I feel like the stress of finding the perfect dress has been lifted. YAY!!
