say yes to the dress

Sorry it has taken so long for me to get another post out here. The last few weeks have gone by so fast!

The other evening my mom and I went and ordered my dress and accessories. I know you are thinking that seems rather soon and at first I agreed, but… it will take 7-9 months for my dress to come in because it’s coming from England! And then I will need time for the alterations. The dress is an Isabella Chessari with the 2Be Bride Collection (sorry, there are no pictures of it online). I was teasing my friend Amy in Amsterdam that she should swing by England on her way home for the holidays and bring it with her so I won’t have to wait so long! Wouldn’t that be a fun thought, not only my great friend Amy coming home, but bringing my wedding dress with her! Now I just need the shoes!

I also received the best news from two of my out of state/country guests!
Dennis Heifner in Maryland said he will be there which is wonderful. Back in high school Chad and Dennis were called the brothers. So in my email to him, I said Chad could not get married without all his brothers being there.

Amy Frost-White is my friend in Amsterdam. I have been wondering since the moment I got engaged if she and her husband Adam would be able to make it back to the states for my wedding! In a Skype conversation with her the other day, she told me the great news that she will be home for September! This is truly going to be a great celebration with all my family and friends.

It’s been six weeks since Chad asked me to marry him and I am down to really only needing to finalize my selection for invitations! I think I was born to be a wedding planner!
One more tid bit about my dress… The title of this blog is Say Yes to the Dress. Not only because the order has been placed, but because this dress is also available at Kleinfeld’s in NYC and has even been featured on TLC’s hit show Say Yes to the Dress!
