these are the first shoes under consideration. Has anyone seen anything else similar to these anywhere? I really want something bright and cherry and I love pattern. I would love a flat or kitten heel… for ease of getting around as our ceremony and reception are in not exactly ideal locations for heels.
Dress shopping day 1 .......... absolute disaster
Dress shopping day 2 ... Bride and bridal party all set!
I was most unexcited about dress shopping after the last fiasco and was trudging my way up to Richmond for another day of wrangling lace and bows and ribbons and beads when the clouds seemingly opened up and all was good again. I a mere 4 1/2 months I will have THE dress. The girls dresses were a lucky surprise and we didn't feel like that much coincidence could be ignored! More to come later...
Today I have my first official appointment to try on wedding dresses. For some reason I can't seem to get excited about this part of the process. I am almost dreading it. Hopefully after today I will be more excited! Off to the hunting grounds I go.

A fantastic vintage beaded tulle dream. I want someone to buy it an wear it! Sweetheart neckline and just a touch of sparkle.
Or this beautiful 60's beaded dress....
