Love This! Choosing a Wedding Dress

On Sunday, Ben and I will celebrate our 1 year wedding anniversary. Like woah. This past year = superfast! 

Last week, as I began to reminisce about the wedding--both the magical day and everything that went into it--I realized that I missed out on a fun post opportunity: The rejected dresses post. So, welcome to today's feature. Because lets be honest, who doesn't love a good insiders view of the outtakes/bloopers/behind-the-scenes? 

Sadly, I wasn't able to take pictures of every single dress that I tried on (most boutiques don't let you take pictures of the dresses, which I think is ridiculous!), but I do have a few awkward snapshots. Please try to ignore my crazy faces, unflattering poses, and all-around weirdness. 

Also, a big thanks to my dear Maid of Honor, Kelly, who traipsed all over Chicago and DC with me, taking pictures and helping me try on dresses. What a process!

When I found "my dress," it was love at first sight. It was comfortable, fit like a glove, showed off my better parts, and hid my not-so-better parts ;) 

When the wedding day rolled around, I was beyond excited to finally slip on my dress...

What a memory. 

Oh, and good news--one year later and I still love him as much as ever! ;)
