Wedding Dresses


Wedding Dress Shopping

My mom and dad drove out for the weekend from Minnesota to get some of the wedding details in order. We managed to accomplish a lot this weekend! We went to the Greenbriar Inn, where we will hold our wedding ceremony and reception, then went to Tee and Cakes, where we were considering getting cake and/or cupcakes for the wedding....Next, we were off to David's Bridal to try on wedding dresses. This was fun, but it was very crowded at David's Bridal. We almost crapped our pants when they told us the cost of alterations. They cost as much as the dress! So, we're trying to figure out something cheaper...for now, we picked out a dress, decided on a veil and tried on shoes.



I feel like I must have tried on a hundred dresses, but I think I tried on about ten. I had been looking through the catalog for some time before we went, so I had an idea about which ones I liked. My mom wanted me to try on the one with the see through back. This was her favorite, but I liked some of the others better.

Having a picture of everything was essential. Here my mom captured the shoes I tried on. They were easy to walk in with a low heel, but I think I'm going to have to get a higher heel so we don't have to pay as much for alterations!

Hi Danielle, I like the second dress and the last one. But wish I could have seen the front of that one. Don't forget there are big sales in January. Love the Inn also. Hugs Kat
