Do you really know when its the right dress and if you do how do you know? The truth is I don't know and I've brought mine! When we first got engaged I must of looked at every wedding dress on the internet and found my "dream dress". The House Of Mooshki dress was everything I could of imagined walking down the aisle in and more and so I mentally ticked the dress off my to do list. Although, I knew I was going to have to lose some weight before I would dream of putting that dress on. After having 2 kids my body wasn't how I wanted it but I had over a year.A few months later I became unwell and during that time was given a cocktail of different medication which destroyed all efforts of losing weight and then some. My poor mum would ask to take me dress shopping and I would make excuses, the last thing I wanted to do was try on wedding dresses. Eventually I agreed to go and look at flower girl dresses down the West End and was starting to look forward to shopping for the wedding again. Whilst in a department store of course my mum happens upon the Bridal section and thinks we should just have a look. Which then turns into lets just try on some dresses ( yes she uses "we" like she's got to put on a dress) to get an idea of what you like. I can't lie I was a little bit excited, that was of course until I stood in a room full of mirrors taking off my clothes bouncing around trying to find a wall to back on to. Whilst a lovely young girl tried to get me in an awful looking dress that by the time it was at my shoulders I was already taking it off. Then came the Princess dress, don't get me wrong, looks stunning on some people but definitely not someone with shoulders like mine and I was done! I couldn't get the dress off quick enough whilst tears streamed down my face I no longer cared about who saw I was getting this dress off and getting out of this place. I was devastated but certain I wasn't doing that again...................... To Be Continued
