Ooooh all very pretty!! #1 and #2 are my faves! I ADORE the bodice on #2.

None of those are the ones?? What kind of style are you leaning towards??

 

[Nicsnick]

I really liked number 4 when I was trying them on. But it looks too plain in the pictures. I was thinking I could add a sash or something. I want something with alot on the top and nothing on the bottom. Its fun trying on the dresses so I dont mind looking!

 

[MainStMandy]

ohhh I love #3!!!

I like #1, but if it's not you, it's not you! Keep looking, you'll find THE dress soon!!

 

[WithDisneySpirit]

You really set off all those dresses! I am partial to #1 but they all look gorgeous on you!!!!!!

 

[sunsh1ne]

i like one and 4 i think you look the happiest in 4

 

[curiouser]

This may sound weird but you have lovely shoulders.. I think #4 accents that the best but I don't think the middle panel is as flattering as some of the others. I would look for more strapless dresses with a soft sweetheart neckline like that, though, you carry it SO well

 

[Nicsnick]

Thank you everyone for the responses on the dresses. I still have not found one that I love so Im going to keep looking. I have more pictures that I will post but they are on my other computer.

We are going to go look at a location for the reception at home tommorrow. I really need to find somewhere in the next couple of days. I am moving from TX to OR this sat. and need to find somewhere before i leave.

I will not be around much for the next week. I need to finish packing and then we will be spending 4 days at DL next week while we are driving cross country! Ill try and post the dress pictures later today. If not ill see yal in a couple of weeks.

Great dresses! I wish they would have let me take pictures of dresses when I tried some on.

 

[DisneyBrideToni]

All of the dresses are beautiful but I think I am partial to #3!

2500 miles later I am now a resident of Portland, OR!!! It was a long boring trip but 4 days at Disneyland was fun!!

Before we left Houston we found the location for our at home location! We are going to have it at the Marriott about 30 min from our house. There is a $5000 min for 50 people (starting at $77 per person) and that inlcudes food, 4 hour bar, cake, centerpeices, table linens, and a room for Andrew and I that night!! I know we will be going over the $5000 but we think it is a great deal!! Im really excited to have found a place and got to see it before we left Houston, as I do not know when I will be back.

7 days until the 8 month mark and we can book our wedding There is still so much to do still but I want to sucure a date and time before I start doing things. I need to go dress shopping again soon. My mom is flying to Portland next month to go shopping with me, but I am going to go look before she comes.

Since we just moved to Portland neither Andrew or I have a job yet. I am still hoping to get a teaching position but no luck yet. Until then I have to make some money some how so I have a job interview at Macy's tommorrow.

Enough of my rambling here are some pictures of our drive from Houston to Portland and our 4 days as Disneyland.. Enjoy..

Congrats on your date!

 

[Nicsnick]

Back in June Andrew and I did the photopass photoshoot at the GF. We finally got our CD so I want to share some of the pictures. We are using these as our engagement pictures.

 

[WithDisneySpirit]

They turned out fabulous, Nicola!!!!! How will you ever pick? You should do up an engagement book through blurb or Disney, I think. The hammock pic is so cute and I love the beach pics. They are all great

 

[Nicsnick]
