    Hey hive!!  I am soooo excited!!  I bought my wedding dress this weekend, and I'm in love!! :)  Just wanted to share it with you all!  Also, just wanted to give a little bit of advice to those of you who haven't bought a dress yet....try on all different styles of dresses...ESPECIALLY styles that you "think" you would never like!  My best friend/MOH made me try on a dress that had lace and a corset...two things I would NEVER have thought that I wanted!!  Well, there's a reason this girl is my best friend...I absolutely LOVED it!  The dress is "Grace" by Maggie Sottero (for those of you that are interested!)...and I got a really GREAT deal!  Just wanted to share my excitement with you!  Can't believe I have to wait five months for it to come in!! Please disregard the horrible faces that I'm making in the pictures!!  I totally forgot my FSIL was snapping pictures! :)

    Me again!  Here's one more...which proves the power of the corset!  I haven't had that small of a waist in ages...trust me! :)

    Thanks ladies!! 

    @FutureMrs.Martin-I totally agree!!  Maggie rocks!  She really knows how to design for a woman's body!  I did not want to take the dress off....I felt soo comfortable in it!

    Oh...and I won't be wearing a veil...just a hair flower :)  Can't wait!! :)

    Yes it's always surprising what you pick. I never thought I would be a Maggie bride just because I've never liked to do the popular thing, and low and behold I'm a Maggie bride. lol! Go us!

    Your dress is very pretty! :) And I second the notions that you look very happy in it too. :)

    Thanks! I LOVE the fabric too....and you can't really tell in the pictures, but there are crystals sewn into the lace that actually sparkle (but not in a tacky way!)  I hope we'll have a nice sunny day for outdoor ceremony...and hopefully that baby will shine!!! :)  You girls are just so wonderful!!!  You are absolutely making my day!! :)

    You look abs. gorgeous!! I can't picture myself in lace either, but hey I guess you never know, you have inspired me to try on a dress with lace.  I also agree Maggie has beautiful dresses.
