Picked Up My Dress

Kelsey, on December 1, 2020 at 11:13 AM Posted in Planning 0 20
Picked up my dress yesterday after ordering it back in July. It’s bittersweet because I love it more than the first time and can see myself walking in it, but between the pandemic and losing my dad two months ago to liver failure it hasn’t been enjoyable to be engaged at all. Some days I just want to get it over with. I know you can all understand.


Getting married April 10th with a little under 50 guests.
My whole life I’ve been looking so forward to getting married and having all the fun stuff leading up to it but it’s definitely not the same during all of this.

    Beautiful! I love how the top has all this detail that ties in with the bottom of the dress!

    I can understand this 100%! I lost my my mom earlier this year to lung cancer. It is very bittersweet because she was so excited and proud. I am only child and my dad has absent since the day I was born so not having my mom their leaves a very big hole in my heart.

    I’m so sorry- I’m an only child also and know how tough that is when there is no one like a sibling to really grieve with.

    You look beautiful! Yes, some understand what that's like, especially this year. My dad passed 11 years ago and I felt like getting married would be pointless without him there. You just have to remember how much you love your fiance and your dad would be so proud of you.


    I found something on Pinterest that we'll probably have at our wedding. You can have an empty chair with a "sign" of some sort on it that says "we know you would here today if Heaven wasn't so far away". If you're able to honor your dad in some way I think it would help with all the feelings he you'll have that day.

    Your dress is absolutely stunning on you! My mom passed in 2018 (on my birthday) & I’d like to say it gets easier but it doesn’t. You just learn to live with it. The 1st year is definitely the hardest & sometimes it hurt so bad that I’d escape to the restroom to cry. Now I can think of my mom & not cry (at least most times).
