    I went with one of my bridesmaids, but I wish I had made a big deal about it and had all of my maid's and my FMIL and my future gma in law come with me.

    I made a Facebook group for my bride tribe since a couple are in different cities. I wanted to purchase my dress online through Holy Clothing, so I shared pictures of dresses in the fb group. It worked out great and I got a dress I love!

    My FMIL and my mom was on Skype video the entire time. Also.. my fiancé and his dad tagged along and ended up walking into the shop when I was in my dress - thankfully in the back obscured from view! The consultant had to escort them out like my bodyguard!! 🤪

    I'm going by myself for the first appt next week so I can figure out what type of silhouette I want. Then FMIL and I are going in mid-July when she's in town. The first appt is a little longer (hour and a half) so I want to be able to try on a little of everything without stressing out over time. The 2nd appt is only an hour.

    Friends. I know they will be honest with me about what they can and can’t see me walking down the isle in, but in a respectful way. My family would be a lot of drama.

    I actually ended up doing this alone on accident. A local store was going out of business and had a crazy sale so I stopped to check it out. I ended up finding my dress and I regret nothing.

    Originally I didnt go shopping - I decided years ago to wear my Grandma's dress that Great Grandma made for her (Grandpa's mom) as a welcome to the family gift. But the day that we found out the fabric was too fragile to bustle I was already going with Mom to look for her dress and we discovered they were having a major sale that day on samples so we ended up shopping for a reception dress for me too (and found one on a MAJOR discount).
