And I had the strangest reaction.... ambivalence. I didn't feel any more bride-like than I did in my jeans & t-shirt. I wasn't really excited like I thought I would be. I mean, I wasn't upset or anything either. I was just.... there. Trying on a dress. It looked exactly like I thought it would. It was a wee bit snug in the hips but I expected that.
Strange that I wasn't more excited. Maybe it's because of the ladies that came with me to see it (they didn't get excited either). Or maybe it's because we are in the middle of a blizzard so it doesn't feel very weddingy right now. Or maybe it's just because I'm just not a girly-girl and I don't get excited about stuff like that. I'm not sure. But either way... it's clear to me that I need to drop the extra pounds to look awesome in the dress. Surprise! LOL. Somehow it always comes back to weight loss.

I'm sure it's gorgeous! Once you add all the accoutrements (to borrow your word that you said on the phone earlier, lol), and the sun starts shining out there, you'll feel much more bridelike.
One question: Is "weddingy" really a word?
I'm sure it was gorgeous!! I wish I could have been there... I would have got excited for you, but Brighton just isn't feeling up to snuff. That and I' mnot sure how great the highways are, and if I want to be traveling on them at the moment.
Beauty is in your heart, not your hips.
You WILL look awesome.
I'm sure you will look amazing - all brides look wonderful on their wedding day. But most of the beauty comes from that excited glow!
Oh Vicky, I'm so sorry that you didn't feel Susie and I were excited about your dress. We thought it was GORGEOUS!!!
