Yes Bride, You're Fat....

...and everyone will be looking at YOU.

I have to say that shopping for wedding dresses is one of the most depressing experiences I've had in quite some time.

First off, sleeveless dresses are evil. Evil, and prevalent.

Secondly, white is SO not my color...and ivory is worse.

Thirdly, beads, bobbles, and lace are evil.

Fourthly, wedding dress store workers are evil. And kinda bitchy.

Fifthly, it's not fun to have to go a dress size up for your wedding dress. Yes, they explain to you that they're just sized that way. Yes, they tell you that everyone has to go a size up. Yes, it's just a number. But *whine* still!

Sixthly, butt-poof is not attractive. Fairy-tale style my ass.

Seventhly [seventhly isn't, strictly speaking, a word], my how-to wedding books all have chapters on "losing weight for your wedding." Re-freaking-diculous.

So what the world is telling a bride is that she should try to look her best on her wedding day, but in order to do so she must be poofy, strapless, thick-looking, bitched at and skinny. I hate them all.

I expected to find ONE dress that I liked. ONE--even if it were totally out of my price range, just to like it would give me hope. But no.


//whoaza--Just had a major girl moment there...forgive this post its pettiness, for it has much to learn.

I found it about 4 months before the wedding when we were crusing E-bay. Just bored one night and found it.

Sweety, this is your and D's day. Dont let anyone tell you what you HAVE to do.

You need any help, we are here
