Reason #153,697 I love my mom and sister
Today was a great way to start the weekend! After I got off work at noon, I met my mom and sister at this place called The Wedding Accessory Superstore - it's an awesome store that literally sells EVERYTHING bridal related except for gowns. Which to me is nice, it's a one stop shop without the hassle of pushy salespeople wanting you to try on "the newest gown". They were having a fashion show today, which was neat, they all all sorts of vendors there from cake, to photo booths, to Oreos with your face on them. (Disposable income much?! Kinda crazy!) They were modeling some different dresses for bridesmaids and mothers of the bride. I had Jessica try on some bridesmaid dresses and we fell in love with this pinkish one. My ONLY complaint with the dre
ss is it doesn't come in the color I wanted. Coral has such variations. This dress is called coral, but I am looking for more the orange-y/peachy coral. Other than that I adore it and I think all my lovely bridesmaids will look perfect in it - or something just like it in my color. : ) I also got Jess to try on a crazy bright orange one which actually looked really cute on her! But it definitely looks more like a party dress than one to walk down an aisle in. It did get the very rare thumbs up approval though! Afterward we cruised the megastore's invitation section. They have NINETY ONE sample books of invites. I decided I am going to do Cinderella invitations, to tie in the proposal (in front of Cinderella's castle at Disneyland ... are you seeing the theme here?) I want something pretty and simple though, not cartoon-
y, something along the lines of this. It's hard to see the detail but it's embossed with Cinderella at the bottom with her carriage . We'd probably do silver font color instead of black, but it's still just a thought at this point. Then we all CRAMMED in the photobooth and took a super cute photo of mom -n- daughters. It was a great day and I am so very lucky to have a mama and sister/maid of honor who are willing and even happy to travel 90 miles just to go to a bridal fashion show. :) I am a lucky girl indeed.
