After the Proposal |

As soon I was done with the tears of joy and frenzied calls to friends and family, (and scrutinizing and admiring the heck out of my ring!) it was time to get down to the important part of being engaged. The wedding. And as any bride knows, the most important part of any wedding is what the bride wears. Of course.
Everything else just falls into place, right? Well, its been a few months, and let me tell you, It does NOT set itself up that easily. But the wedding dress is still drastically important, as any girl who has ever thought of her big day can tell you. My wedding is most easily described as a *deep breath* Outdoor, Vintage, Eco, DIY, Casual wedding. Yeah. So my challenge was to find a dress to match all of that. I think it is worth mentioning that by Eco I mean Ecological AND Economical. And oh, do I love a challenge.

I fell in love with this as soon as I saw it. It was that moment they talk about when a bride finds THE dress. The only problem? Its from an online store, unique-vintage.com, which always involves risks when making a purchase this important. The problems I am most worried about is that of sizing and the dress being the right shape to flatter my body. I am going to risk it though. Call it idealistic or sheer ornery, this is my dress. Remember the outdoor part of my wedding? It has leaf broaches and and a leaf and vine pattern embroidered down the bodice, plus it has no train. Eco? It costs three hundred dollars and is from an enviromentally-conscious maker. It is primarily a vintage website, so that part is a no-brainer. Sigh. It is a match made in heaven.
