Wedding Wednesday: The Dress

It has been forever in a day since I have done one of these.  Moving cross country, doing a home remodel, and just getting settled in my fantastic "new" life just got in the way.  #Sorrynotsorry

I loved my wedding dress.  I needed something that didn't need a lot of alterations.  Mostly because I was going to be out at sea for 2 months before the wedding, and I didn't have time to freak out about a 5 pound weight loss or gain.

I went dress shopping with my girls, you can read that post here.   It was quick, and easy.  I looked at the BHLDN website before I even came to Chicago, and got the appointment in February for April.  It was tough.  I keep forgetting how the wedding industry is just booming all the time!

Before the Ceremony. 

At the Reception.  Cocktail Hour with a good friend from college.


I knew when I tried this dress on, it was the one.  Simple, yet elegant, and perfect for the day.  I had a nice clip in my hair, as I didn't want the hassle of a veil.  I had some simple and elegant earrings, and had two sashes for the dress.  One was ivory, perfect for the ceremony, and the other was full of detail and sparkle for the reception.

    Love the idea of two different sashes.. they change the dress so much. I added a rhinestone one to my dress and it completely changed the whole look =)

    I LOVE your dress and the idea of two sashes!! That's seriously genius without having to change into (and buy) a second dress! Thanks for linking up :)
