5 Months And Still No Dress

It is hard to believe that our wedding is less that 5 Months away!  We have accomplished sooooo much but still feels like we have quite a ways to go.  We have the Church, Reception site, Photographer, Cake Lady, Florist and 2 of 6 bridesmaids dresses, so the ball is rolling, but I still have one major problem. I am finding that one of my big problems is determining, "our wedding style."  I think part of that problem is that I don't have a dress yet!!!!  I feel like so much of the style of a wedding comes from the Bride and her personal style for the day, and I don't have that yet.  I have tried on several dresses to get a feel for what I want but I haven't tried on MY dress yet.  

My dress is currently with a designer being created, from my Grandmother's turned Mother's wedding dress.  The gown is beautiful as is but I wanted to update it a little....or a lot!  I am so excited and blessed that I was allowed to join this lineage of great women, I hope to do the dress and them justice. The gown is going to be just beautiful I know it, but I haven't gotten to try it on.  I keep looking at the sketch the designer emailed me, and I can tell that I am going to love her creation, she knows exactly what I want and has maintained the integrity of the original flawlessly! But a sketch is only 2-Dimensional, I want to get my hands on it! I can't wait for the moment that most Brides to be talk about, when you finally find YOUR dress.  The excitement of the glimpse into your wedding day, the nerves because this is the one and so is He, and OMG this is really happening for me, happiness for the future, your relationship and all the love that surrounds the couple and both your families, I just can't wait!
