We went to David’s Bridal.  It could be up to 2 years before the wedding, and who knows what size I will be then.  Nonetheless, we went to check it out.


I am not sure if the wedding is day or night.

I am not sure if the wedding is where exactly on the scale between casual and formal.

So I am pretty much in the dark about wedding dresses, except I know what appeals to me and what does not.

But David’s Bridal had this ad about $99 wedding dresses, so that caught my attention.  $99 for sale dresses.  Oh my gosh. Pretty doggy.  On the $99 dresses.  Plus they were kind of scruffed and dirty because they had been stomped on and tried on so many times.

We looked at some dresses. And I tried on some.  The people are standing there saying yes, yes, it looks good and wanting you to pick one so they can get the next person in.  We made the mistake of going on a Saturday like every other bride.  Some people knew to have made an appointment, but other people didn’t so it was a little hectic, with each bride afraid that somebody else was going to grab the dress that was meant to be her wedding dress. Ha.

We looked at some bridesmaid dresses and some mother of the bride dresses.

After being through that pit today I am still thinking about wearing my grandma’s dress.  Or else I’ll just wear a plastic trash bag and let it go at that.  This whole big thing about spend, spend, spend is starting to annoy me, like it’s the way America wants to kick start the economy is by having all the brides spend money.
