Disappointed with David's Bridal :(

<---This picture says it all. (well, I'm kind of smirking a bit because I knew the picture was going to be taken and I did really love the veil, but I really was exhausted and annoyed.)

David's Bridal exhausted me. None of the bridal gowns jumped out at me, and neither did any of the bridesmaids dresses. Now I'm thinking about checking out Raylia Designs for the bridesmaids dresses. There are some shops around here that offer that designer and the turquoise or sky blue looks really pretty. Plus they seem to have a lot more different styles of dresses that I like.

Looking on the bright side...I found the size/style of veil that I like! I want a white, layered elbow length veil. I've seen some on eBay with butterfly satin embellishments on them for like $15. That'd be perfect! No need to spend $69 on a veil from David's. (In my opinion)

As far as my bridal gown goes, I'm sticking with DaVinci #8220. I love that dress! It has the sweetheart neckline that I love, it's fitted on top, full on the bottom and embellished, just the kind of dress I wanted. :) And did I mention it's also the cheapest one I've tried on? Gotta love that!

Wedding Dress Shopping - with Bridesmaids!

Tomorrow I have an appointment scheduled at David's Bridal so that my bridesmaids and myself can try on dresses! I went a couple of weeks ago to look at bridal dresses and I found one that I really like. But...after getting advice from my bridesmaids, I will not be making the purchase until after we go to David's - just in case I find something I like better there. Plus I think if I get my dress there, my bridesmaids would get a discount and that would rock. =)

I'm 97% sure that I want to get their dresses in the Cornflower blue color shown on the pic from David's on the left. I'm letting my maids choose their own style, but I do want them all to be wearing the same shade and probably the same hem length too.

I'll be sure to post pictures!
