Dream Dresses

As my regular readers know, I am engaged to be married and have been since February. While I am a real Type A freak about most everything in my life, I have not applied this kind focused and driven mentality to my wedding planning. Which is fine – no biggie. I know everything will come together. The one exception to this statement is in regard to the wedding dress.

Oh yeah, I’ve been all over that process since day one. I’ve toyed with the the idea of a custom Rodarte dress. I’ve tried on simple and chic Lanvin dresses, hand beaded Oscar de la Renta gowns and the most beautiful Alice Temperley dress, which I was informed a princess recently wore for her big day.

In the end (um, yesterday) I went with Carolina Herrera. Maybe it’s my secret desire to be Venezuelan royalty? Maybe? Anyway, my dress is heaven and I can’t stop thinking about it. And here’s a hint: it’s not pictured here.
