Said Yes to My Dress! 3
I originally wanted to make my wedding dress. Handmake the whole thing. We went to go try on dresses to make sure I liked the style before making it first. But I tried this on and everyone cried. Me most of all.


Since my disability hit I have hated the cane and hated how I looked even more than usual. But I felt *pretty* today. Like for the first time genuinely felt *pretty*. And my Great Grandma made me get it (she dropped the bomb that she was paying for it 🥹). I can't wait.

    You look wonderful.

    You indeed deserve to feel special and pretty and thankful for the great grandmother's gift. That sounds like she had a reason for you to look at dresses a while before you went. It is so wonderful what you have shared. Don't be bothered by the cane. It is just something to help keep you getting around easier. No one should be bothered by it. Just enjoy the great moments and the hope you have before you.

    Congratulations — saying yes to your dress is such an exciting moment! 💕 I’m also dress shopping and it feels so good when the one finally stands out, even if it wasn’t what I imagined at first. I love hearing what dresses others chose and why it felt right for them. Did anyone else find it helped to try on lots of different styles before finding the one? 😊

    You look beautiful! That’s a gorgeous dress. Congratulations!
    Are you going to use your daily cane or are you going to buy a special one for the big day?
