Update: The dress has been picked up! I am so excited to wear it on our wedding day.
The dress that was originally going to happen, ended up feeling more like prom instead of being a bride and was scratched. To get more ideas I went officially dress shopping and found a dress I feel in-love with. Even made a teary moment while in it. The dress has been ordered and I cannot wait for it to get here! I've been toying around with adding something to be wedding dress to make it uniquely mine. Maybe having a small bolero jacket to wear with my dress or something else.

Shoes
I found the shoes even before Drew and I talked about getting married one day when we were at Nordstrom’s Rack. I loved them the second I saw the bright red and was so happy they fit. Again, I had no idea what I was going to wear them for, but bought them anyway. As soon as Drew and I figured out our wedding colors I knew the shows were going to be perfect!
Purse
I ordered this flower purse from etsy seller, FIAZCO.
Outfit for Getting Ready
While having my hair and make-up done the morning of the wedding, I got this dress and sandles from Old Navy.
