As Visions of Dresses Danced in Her Head

I don't know who I was kidding when I thought I could somehow plan a wedding in a mere 8 months. I am your royal highness of indeciseveness, and I will be lucky if I'm able to make one decision within that time frame.

Currently, the sticking point is with the dress. I've been to three stores and have tried on at least 40 different dresses, and I'm still unable to hunker down and settle on just one. I love the ball gown look, with the bustles in the skirt and the big dramatic train. It's the only day in my life where I would be able to get away with wearing such a dress, so why not go for it? But then I try on these lovely lace ones that are very me. Always a tiny bit of vintage love mixed in with this modern girl. The trouble? Finding a dress that incorporates both elements. Plus, I can't figure out if I like the very fitted bodice, or an A-line that would cover up my baby belly.

This is what happens when I'm given too many choices.

This is the only dress I've found that marries (ha.ha. get it?) my love of lace with my love of the ball gown:

I've been eyeing it up since the day I found it online, but that's about all I'm able to do because nobody in a 100 mile radius of Wisconsin has a sample for me to try on. How irritating is that?!

So now I'm left here to decide...

Do I buy the (expensive) dress that I know I like, or take the plunge and buy my dream dress without ever seeing it in person? OR. Do I continue shopping?

The invitation, centerpiece, music, food, etc dilemnas are sure to follow....
