Big Step Forward!

I bought a wedding dress, y'all! I succeeded in achieving my goals of buying a dress that was:
1. Simple and elegant
2. Preowned/second-hand (aka "used")
3. Under $800 (significantly!)

Yay! I can't believe it. Buying something as important as a wedding dress used and on the internet seems slightly risky, but my gut sense tells me I done good.

In case all that's going through your mind since starting this post has been: WTF!?!? $800!?!? - I would like to inform the naïve public (to which I once belonged) that wedding dresses are EXPENSIVE. Like, my dream dress is over $5000 plus the added cost of alterations. Most decent dresses run at least a grand, and slightly nicer, name-brand gowns run well into the $3000's. I know, seriously, WTF.

One of the many reasons I've been detesting wedding planning.

One biggie down, a bunch more to go!
