Ok! So before I went hunting for my dress, I made sure that I had an idea of what silhouette and style I liked first because dress shopping can be so overwhelming. While I spent hours looking at different designers, my sister suggested to check out Watters because she felt like I was a Watters kind of bride. Well, she was right! From there, I discovered Willowby by Watters which is part of the Watters family! It’s edgier and more me! The style that I wanted was an illusion dress and something with color! Upon browsing their site, I immediately fell in love with a couple of dresses, jotted their names down, then googled which boutiques around me that carried Willowby and the rest is history! It was seriously that quick, guys! I visited two boutiques in one day and tried THE DRESS on twice and I just knew that it was THE ONE. My mom, my sister and my best friend were thrilled and their approval was important to me. It made it that more special.
I will share one of the dresses that I tried on, but I will not show you guys which one I actually chose! I want to surprise you guys later!
Ok, so let me explain my facial expression in this photo…I liked this dress sooo much that I made an ugly Kim Kardashian cry face. I was extremely excited at this point because almost every dress I tried on was a hit (humble brag). This was the runner up dress! Isn’t she gorgeous? The only reason why I didn’t choose this one was because I didn’t feel like wearing sleeves while getting married on a tropical island (Maui is where I’ll be tying the knot this fall) and my sister made a good point about the lining color blending in with the sand. Dress shopping is serious business, folks!
September is months away and I can’t wait to get married! I will definitely share that with you guys once the time comes. It’ll be the most perfect day, but the only thing missing would be my dad. I really miss him, but I know he’ll be there in spirit. Well, it’s time for me to hit that sack. I need to get better and feel 100% again! Have a great weekend, guys! ❤️
