Dress shopping

After digging out from last weekend's foot of snow, it looks like we're gearing up for another foot in the next few days. This just furthers my excitement to spend a day trying on wedding dresses with my best friend. I'm foregoing the alternative dress-shopping route for a (hopefully) more pleasant experience at Nordstrom in Mall of America. I have a 10 a.m. appointment with a personal shopper who will have a dressing room full of dresses waiting for me when I arrive.

Mom and Megan (sis) are making the trip next weekend for the more traditional dress shopping trip, which I'm equally excited about. We have a Thursday afternoon appointment at the Wedding Shoppe, which I've heard is comparable to a cattle call -- they give you a buzzer and you wait in line to try on dresses with everyone else and their mother ... literally. I'm hoping we'll beat the crowd by not going on the weekend. The main reason I chose the Wedding Shoppe was for their vast selection of destination/informal gowns.
