Wedding Dress Success 👰💍

Omg!!!!So excited still. Last weekend found my wedding dress. And had a sea of emotions because of my family. Before going shopping. My MIL (who lives in the states and couldnt come). Offered to give me some money towards it. So kind and overwhelming. Then while looking around the store. A VIP in my life that I call momma showed up (after telling me she wouldn't be able to come...and shes an hour drive away).Try on dresses. Narrow it down to 2. Try THE ONE on again. Modify some things (AKA clip back some damn crinoline). And its it. My aunt is almost in tears. Which cemented it. I go up to pay/order my dress. My aunt tells me its taken care of. Her and my uncle want to do this for me.
I end up bursting into happy tears in the middle of davids bridal over this. 1. Because the generosity just did me in. 2. Planning a wedding when you dont have parents is so difficult. So to feel like i had a "mom" moment with my aunt was the best.

    It is just so fantastic to have such supportive people. I've been working really hard to make sure I keep them up to date on plans the way I would parents. and both of them are just loving it. and my cousins (their 2 daughters), I worried would feel i'm stealing their "daughter" thunder. and they are just as supportive and awesome too!
    i'm glad you have people in your life too!

    Aww I am so happy for you! Congrats on find the dress! I'm excited to see it! That's so sweet that your aunt and uncle are doing that for you. That must be such a relief! They are pretty pricey especially after alterations so that will be so nice for you Smiley smile

    I'm on the same boat as you, both my parents passed away and my aunt and uncle are so incredibly invested in making this a day to remember, I know they're trying their hardest so that I don't feel like I am missing out on anything. Isn't it awesome to have such great people around us?
