Its
that moment that little girls dream of, the real life version of Say Yes To The Dress. My daughter and I spent the past
weekend going to countless bridal stores trying on various wedding dresses,
each one more beautiful than the last one.
It was a special weekend; full of laughs and those beautiful moments
that moms dream about from the second we bring home that little pink bundle of
joy.
My
little girl is all grown up and will soon become a stunning bride. It was so incredible to see her smile as she
stood there admiring and evaluating each dress.
Did it feel like her style? Was
it flattering to her figure? Did it
match her personality? There were several
dresses that came really close, but she wasn’t sure yet, so we kept
looking.
Trying
on wedding dresses in the Phoenix heat can be tough, my daughter provided lots
of comic relief throughout the weekend as she lifted the dresses to get some
cooling. After looking at and trying on
more tulle and lace than I have ever seen in one place, I am excited to announce that we
found THE dress, the perfect one. I am
strictly forbidden from sharing any pictures of the dress, but thanks to a
cropping tool and your imagination, you can picture the incredible beauty I had
the amazing privilege to see.
We
also had the chance to talk this weekend, in between trying on all the
dresses. We talked about my daughter’s
ideas for the wedding, as well as her hopes and dreams for the future.
There
is nothing quite like shopping for a wedding dress; a wedding is one of the
most special days in your life, but a wedding – no matter how beautiful and
special, is only one day. A marriage is
for a lifetime – and finding someone you want to spend your life with is beautiful
and special and worth celebrating, no matter which dress you choose.
