I never thought i would be like some of those crazy girls on "Yes to the Dress".
But lets just say i was.
Before i was a bride i would think "ahh you can never cry over a dress or just KNOW its the one".
I was totally wrong about it ALL.
I said yes to the dress and I cried like a big baby when i knew it was the one!
Well two weeks ago, my mom, mother in law, sister and myself went into salt lake to just look and see if we could get some wedding stuff done. We stopped at Michael and i found tons of stuff. We got all my center pieces, got flower girls basket ties for the groomsmen, flowers for my girls and the boys, cute little shirts for the ring boys, my cake topper, knife set and my wine glasses. We got really lucky with everything we found. Its kinda been hard finding stuff in my colors, but i think everything will look amazing.
So after we got all the shopping done we thought why don't we go and look for some dresses. Just to look, i knew i wouldn't be able to try anything on cause i did have an appointment. So we go there and started looking around, I found some really cute ones that i wanted to try on. I knew what kind of style i was wanting. But i was open to anything. It was about an hour of looking at dresses and someone called my name and they were able to get me in to try on dresses. YAY. So i grabbed three dresses cause i knew i was going to have to be fast about the whole trying on thing. The first one was pretty i really liked it, then i tried on the second one and fell in love with it, and the third one i liked but i was still more in love with the second one. I knew that second one was MINE. It fit me just right and i looked good in it. ;-)
My aunt really wanted to come and be there for the moment when i got my dress. I thought i would come back and buy the second dress cause the more i looked at it the more i was in love with it. So we made an appointment for the next Saturday so my aunts could make it.
Talk about longest week everrrr!!!!
Finally Saturday came around and we headed in.
Found about 5 more dresses that i wanted to try on. I told Lisa (the awesome lady that helped me) that i wanted to try on the one from last week at the very end. I wanted to see if any other dress made me feel as good as the one did.
So i tried on a few and lets just say i LOVE trying on dresses.
My little sister pick out one for me, so i tired it on. As soon as my mom tighten it up in the back, and before i even looked at myself. I felt amazing.
I walked out the dressing room and my aunts just started crying. I looked at myself and i just got this feeling like i cant explain. I felt pretty and i could see me wearing this dress on the day i become Chelby Garcia.
Still in the back of my head i wanted to try on the one from the other day. So i slipped into it and looked at myself, i was lost. I didn't know what one i liked more. I walked around in it a little bit, i looked at it a little more, and i asked everyone what they thought. Something inside of me was saying that i need to put the other one on again.
So back in to change once again i went. As soon as i stepped in this dress i got the feeling again. I started walking and it felt light, it just felt amazing. I looked at myself and started crying. I knew it was the dress i would be walking down to. I knew this was the dress i would become a Garcia. Lisa looked at me and said i think this is the one. I looked around and everyone was crying.
THIS IS THE ONE i said.
and the tears started rolling again..
I'm saying YES to the Dress.
Lisa came back over and handed me a bell. When you find your wedding dress we have you make a wish and ring the bell as hand as you can. The harder you ring the bell the more your wish will come true. Yes i rang that bell like it was going to break. That day couldnt of went any better,
It was pretty awesome to have such amazing people there to share this time with me. We were even able to skype with my sister Torie so she could be involved. I cant believe i found my dress. It makes everything so much more REAL. 6 more months. :)
