In addition to the Direct TV/Internet guys come today we had a very serious family issue arise today so I didn't get to work in my craft room at all.
BUT, I did want to share our own version of Say Yes to the Dress! I have to tell you I had lots of fun...it's just like the show but Amber had about a dozen ladies there to support and I think confuse her - LOL!! Everyone had opinions but in the end nobodies opinion outweighed her inner joy when she finally made her decision.
Having 2 boys I have to tell you I've never set foot into a bridal shop before so this was a totally new and unique experience for me. (When I got married I wore my Mom's dress...which fit me perfectly nearly 20 years after she wore it.) Anyway, it was VERY busy when we arrived...lots and lots of girls trying on not only bridal gowns but formal wear, brides maid and prom dresses....not to mention all the little kids running around.
I am so proud of her...she looked great in everything she tried on! She's 5 months preg (due 6-25) and just kept going and going. Anyway, without further delay here are the dresses she tried on (in order)....
Dress #1
Dress #2
Dress #3
Dress #4
Dress #5
Dress #6
Dress #7
Dress #8
So, which did you like the best?
Which one do you think I liked the best??
Which one do you think she picked as "THE" dress???
I think since this is such a special occasion it calls for a little give-a-way!
Vote and enter (by posting a comment) for your favorite dress and you'll be entered to win a bag of goodies from my stash! This goodie bag could be filled with a combination of ribbon, ephemera, embellishments, rubber stamps of course and whatever else I decide to toss in.
You'll have until March 3rd to post your vote to be entered to win!!!
i love #2 and #6 on her! she's beautiful in them!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful dresses and a special time for mother and daughter! I like number 7 on her the best.
ReplyDeleteShe looks beautiful in all of them. I would have picked dress #2. I bet it was a tough choice for her!
ReplyDeleteIt's number 6 for me, it's gorgeous and she looks lovely in it x
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteI have to vote for #2 being my favorite.....let's hope she went with that one, but she is beautiful in all of them.
ReplyDeleteDress #1 is just so beautiful... and #7 too... I think that these two suit her the best but if I had to chose just the one it would be... #1 :O)) She looks beautiful in all of them... guess I am rubbish at trying to make decisions LOL x
ReplyDeleteDress number 2 for me. Think it looks great on her.
ReplyDeleteDress #2 is va-va-voom!! I hope thats the one
ReplyDeleteI like dress #5 but I would say that you like dress #7!! Very pretty dresses!!
ReplyDeleteOh how I love #7! I think it is the most flattering on her and is just plain ole breathtaking. However I feel like she may have chosen #6 by the look on her face. I must say though she really looks great in them all! :)
ReplyDeleteWow, that's not an easy choice, but I think I'd choose dress 2. It really looks great on her! It must be a very exciting time!
ReplyDeleteI like 1 and 2, but they are all beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to the Bride to Be!! My youngest is also getting married this May! So we know how exciting this time is!!!
Hugs and Best Wishes no Matter What Dress You Chose to Wear!!! You Will Be Radiant....

I like 5, 6 and 8.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty.
Good luck
I think #2 looks the best!!
ReplyDeleteI think she looks lovely in all of them, but I thought no. 2 (especially) and no. 6 looked quite stunning on her. But whatever dress she chooses for her special day, she will be wearing the most becoming accessory, happiness! :-)
ReplyDeleteI think #2 looks best.
ReplyDeleteDress 4 is very flattering on her. That would be my choice! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Roni -
ReplyDeleteShe looks gorgeous in all of them, but my favorite is dress #1. I do like the back if dress #2, but my pick is still dress #1.
Elaine Allen
Definitely no. 3. I remember how hard the choice was when my daughter got married and then her bridesmaids were at both ends of the size scale. Such fun!
ReplyDeleteI think I like #3 the best. Very classic, nice lines and I think it flatters her figure the best. Soft and flowing too. I love all of them actually....love a pretty bride!!!
ReplyDeletewow all nice choices! I think #2 rocks on her as well as # 6, I think she chose #2... I think you chose # 2 as well, as did her mom lol...can't wait to hear the results..so exciting you will be a gramma soon enuf! Color me green! xo cher
ReplyDeleteDress #1 is my favorite. I like the ribbon at the waist and think that's a nice way to pull together wedding colors from the bridesmaids and the flowers. She looks great in all of the dresses! Probably you two chose dresses 2 and 6! Anne, yourmainestamper
ReplyDeleteThey are all beautiful but #2 looks like it was made just for her! I love the back of that dress too. Congratulations to you both!
ReplyDeleteShe looks amazing in all of them but my vote is for #2.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, what fun! A big congrats to the whole family. I love Say Yes to the Dress - I have to say that Dress #2 struck me immediately. It's so very elegant. I know young women these days love the strapless look, but that dress has a certain something. Tee hee, I hope she's not going to read all of these comments - more confusion, poor dear!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the first dress, especially since it has a little splash of green in it!
ReplyDeleteShe looks lovely in them all but number 2 has the edge on all the others... for a couple of reasons: it has as much interest at the back so people get to see a lovely view while she as the altar and the halter neck suits her figure, bustline and shoulders and that extra overlay on the front will be a real help as the baby grows into a pronounced bump!
ReplyDeleteNumber 7, but she will be beautiful in whatever she chooses.
ReplyDeleteFor me, it's dress #3! It's lovely! And she looks so happy in that picture. Congratulations to both, the bride-to-be and her proud (and sometimes inky) mother! :-)
ReplyDelete2 or seven - no goodie bag for me though.
ReplyDelete(Oooops... sorry for the double post... please remove if possible :-/ It's MINA!! Miiiiiina... LOL!)
ReplyDeleteFor me, it's dress #3! It's lovely! And she looks so happy in that picture. Congratulations to both, the bride-to-be and her proud (and sometimes inky) mother! :-)

Hi Roni
ReplyDeleteMy vote goes for dress #6.
Thanks for the opportunity to win.
Have a nice week!
she looks great with all the dress...but i prefer the no 5...
ReplyDeleteWhat fun!! She looks beautiful in all of them but I loved her in #2 and #8.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE 3,7 and 8. But at my opinion she looks best in 7.
ReplyDeleteRoni, my favorite on her is dress #2. It is sophisticated and romantic and lovely on her. Dying to know which one she chose.
ReplyDeleteI liked number 6 best but there were some other close ones.
ReplyDeleteOMG!! There all so beautiful on her.....it's hard to pick!! But I have narrowed it down to 2....#3 and #6.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely all of these dresses are on Amber! What a fun day you must have had. It's wonderful that you and so many others were invited to join her!!!
ReplyDeleteMy fave is dress #2. Which is also the one I think Amber picked!! And maybe even you Roni! or #3??
She is so pretty and when the day comes, I'm sure she would make even a burlap bag beautiful!!
Thanks for the chance of a goodie bag!! Love your sense of fun!!
dress number 6 looks gorgeous on her
ReplyDeleteI love the 2nd dress, it is so beautiful on her, #4 fits her like a glove and is my first pick. I think is has picked #5. Stunning dresses, love them all.
ReplyDeleteOh, my, what a hard decision! I love both dress #2 and dress #6, although she can only wear one dress (ha/ha) - so, I'd pick dress #6.
ReplyDeleteОднозначно - платье № 2. В нем она просто королева!
ReplyDeleteTwo, 2, dos, II - Number 2 for me! LOL
ReplyDeleteI think number 2 is a definite winner. It is unique and just stunning. Looks like it was made for her.
ReplyDeleteDdd
Dress #2 is beautiful on her. Love the detailing on the back. Bonus that it looks similar to one that Sookie on Gilmore Girls wore for her wedding. (The actress who played Sookie is now Molly on Mike and Molly.) Second choice for me is #3. But #2 is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes to her!
I love #3 on her. Thanks for the give away.
ReplyDeleteOh,she is beautiful in all them. It really hard to choose just one.I look several times and final vote for #6.
ReplyDeleteDress #3! She looks great in it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful daughter en lovely dresses. I like number 7. It looks gorgeous on her.
ReplyDeleteShe's look great in most dresses...esp dress# 2 & 6. but I personally feels #6 looks the best .
ReplyDeleteI love dress 2. It's the perfect dress for AMber !
ReplyDelete#2 or #7.....i love the top!
ReplyDeleteI think she picked dress #4. It looks really gorgeous and accents and enhances her figure. I can see you really had fun picking The Dress!
ReplyDeleteaw, she looks gorgeous in them all but if I had to pick one it would have be number 2.
ReplyDeleteHope she has a great day
I'm thinking number 1 but I do like the others too ... hee hee hee. Cheers & good luck with everything. Cheers.
ReplyDeleteI am going with #6 all the way. Several beautiful choices. Congratulations to her!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely #4. It is not only elegant, but it is very slimming and bridal like. She looks lovely in it.
ReplyDeleteI think #3 is stunning on her, and it's a gorgeous dress.
ReplyDeleteI loved #3 on her will give the most room for baby I think and comfort for her. She was stunning in all and will look even better on her special day as she will be glowing with happiness. Make sure you both have time for all the special moments ahead.
ReplyDeleteI imagine you will get votes on every "flavor" of dress, but I choose #4. I thought it was flattering and elegant. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteFor me number 6 is favorite :).
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to you both!
Oh my gosh... she looks beautiful in all of them. You are so lucky so have such a beautiful woman in your family. And to have another generation on the way. God is love. She looks stunning in Dress #7. It fits her perfect, and I love the color.
ReplyDeleteShe looks beautiful in all of them, but I like #2 the best.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the upcoming events. Best of everything to all.
I love dress #2. It is beautiful, classic looking, and very flattering. She looks great in it, and I bet it would look great in the wedding pictures. But I know most of the brides like the strapless ones. But they spend part of their time pulling them up!
ReplyDeleteDawn in OH
Although they are ALL beautiful dresses, I have to say my two favorites are #2 and #7, leaning more to number 2. She has amazing taste and glows in all of them!
ReplyDeleteShe's quite the beautiful young lady in #4!
ReplyDelete#2 and #7 are my favorites:-)
ReplyDeleteThey are all so lovely! My personal favorite is dress #2; it is very flattering on her and very elegant. Dress #6 is also gorgeous and looks very beautiful on her, too. It would look lovely with a jewel tiara. What a difficult choice! Congratulations to the bride and groom!
ReplyDeleteI'm leaning toward #2.... hard to pick, they are all so lovely!
ReplyDeleteDeniseB
She truly looks lovely in all of them. However, I think dress 7 is the best.
ReplyDeleteI think #3 looks very flattering on her, that's my pick. The #3 picks seem to be the minority here. They are all really beautiful on!
ReplyDelete#6 looked so pretty...just lovely!
ReplyDeleteCandace
i like dress 2 , i hope she likes this one the best
ReplyDelete#3 looks great
ReplyDelete#3 looks very nice on her. changing the color of the bow would make #1 a winner too.
ReplyDeletei apologize for the double post. blogger jumped in and gave me an error message on the first one, so i thought it didn't post.
ReplyDeleteOh I love how she looks in dress #3. Both front and back of this gown are beautiful. I think this would be a comfortable dress as well. No fears of popping out or a need to constantley tug up on the gown. This is a day you want to be totally confindent in your gown and I think dress #3 fits the bill.
ReplyDelete#6 was my favorite on her...cannot wait to hear what she picked...they all looked great! thanks for the chance to win...
ReplyDeleteI like #2 the best. She's going to make a beautiful bride.
ReplyDeleteNumber 2 is stunning and really suits her too..such a beautiful young lady...have a great day!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope she chose Dress #5, she's beautiful in all of them, but I like the dress with straps. I bet it was a tough choice for her.
ReplyDeleteIt's 1 and 3 for my vote but they are all beautiful so any she picks will be fantastic.
ReplyDeleteHad to say it was #4. Beautiful dress, so elegant!
ReplyDeleteshe is beautiful in each one and looks like she is having a great time, I like number 7.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure she will be a lovely bride and shine on her big day. I think she look grat in dress number 2.
ReplyDeleteDress #2 looks like it was made for her.... beautiful!
ReplyDeletefirst of all, congratulation! I love dresses #1 and #6! which #6 is my favorite!

ReplyDeleteI liked number 5 on her the best.I think you liked number 6 the best and that she picked number 4.That's my guesses.
ReplyDeleteI think she looked gorgeous in every one, but she looked best in no.5, so elegant and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteShe is going to be a beautiful bride! My personal favorite on her is #2! But she is adorable in all of them! Thanks for sharing the pictures... I remember getting yelled at when my mom took one of me in the dress we paid for! We just wanted to remember it a little and get bridal party dress ideas... silliness.
ReplyDeleteI really like dress #2 shes beautiful in it
ReplyDeleteI have to say I really like her in #2.. either way as long as SHE loves it, she will be beautiful in it!
ReplyDeleteOh they are all lovely, but my fav is dress # 2, and dress #5 is my second choice. Can't wait to see which one she picks.

ReplyDeletesamjambam at optonline dot net
They are all so beautiful as is she. I'm going with #2 all around. My pick, your pick and the brides pick.
ReplyDeleteMy choice for the beautiful bride is dress number 3. I think it gives her the best balance over-all and just compliments her best.

ReplyDeleteI like #3 the best. It is beautiful and floaty without too much poof. All the dresses looked wonderful on her but she must have chosen #3.
ReplyDeleteI like #3. I think it compliments her very well.
ReplyDeletei cannot decided between dress 2 and 6 she looks great in them all cant wait to see what she chooses tfs hugs jayne xx
ReplyDeleteOhhhhh.. I can't decide! I love both four and six, she looks amazing in them! Okay, *pause* number four, I pick four...no, wait! Six, it's so feminine, yes six *nodding*. Ummm...number four? It's sooooo elegant! No, no, six; six it is. Yes! Six, dress number six. It's fabulous!! Final answer!
ReplyDeleteI do like no 3 on her, I also like no 2 but 3 is the one I would choose for her if I could. Overall it gives her a nice shape
ReplyDeleteThey are all stunning dresses. But I would have to say that she looks incredibly beautiful in #6 and #8 especially!
ReplyDeleteHi Roni, I have to go with #6. She is very beautiful in all if them.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to pick dress 5! What fun!! Can't wait to see which one she actually picked out!
ReplyDeleteShe looks lovely in dress 2. Looks like it was a great day
ReplyDeleteI like #5 on her and think it is the one she picked.
ReplyDeleteDress #3, that's the one she looks happy and beautiful in it.
ReplyDeleteThis was hard, but I love dress #3 on your daughter *smiles*
ReplyDeleteI love #2 and hope she picked that one, but I have a feeling (judging from the smile) that she went with #1.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy this special time!
She looks lovely in all of them. But I liked #2 Best.
ReplyDeleteNumber 1 is lovely and number 3 without the straps would be fantastic. She will make a beautiful bride
ReplyDeleteI really liked them all but #4 was my favorite....followed closely by #5.She looks great for 5 months pregnant!
ReplyDeleteCarol
#2 and #6 look beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI think I would have to say, she should go for #2, it is by far the prettiest dress on her but then again,their all gorgeous as I liked #3 and #7. I bet she picked #2!
ReplyDeleteDress number 2!
ReplyDeleteDress 7 looks beautiful on her and she looks perfect in it. Stunning!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite dress for Amanda is dress #6. Love how it looks on her.
ReplyDeleteI vote for #5.It will work with her well as the time gets closer. She is very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely dress #2. The bodice is very flattering on her and the back looks beautiful. Classic lines - gotta go with Dress #2.
ReplyDeletePure elegance with dress #2. I also loved dress #4, but dress # is still my favorite. Fun times!
ReplyDeleteShe looks beautiful in all of them, but dress 2 is definitely my favourite x
ReplyDeleteDefiently #2 , the most flattering dress. But she will look gorgeous with whatever she chooses !
ReplyDeleteI live in the UK, but just had to say my choice is Dress No 2 it looks just fabulous on Amber.
ReplyDeleteI think Amber was so beautiful in dress #6. I hope she keeps that smile forever!
ReplyDeleteShe looks beautiful in all the dresses but my personal favorite is number 3. Something about the chiffon skirt just makes me go all soft and squishy, LOL! I also love the lace and green ribbon tie on number 1.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to find out which she chose and which your favorite was!
I really like #2 and #3 but there isn't one that I don't like. It would be a really hard decision. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteShe looks beautiful in all the dresses but I liked how #4 looked on her best.
ReplyDeleteHi Ronie,love all the dresses,but I think #2 is the one! Very elegant, & flattering look (#7 also looks great) but I still think #2 is the one :) Congratulations to the bride-to-be :)
ReplyDeleteI think you liked dress 5 and I think she picked dress 7. She looked amazing in both of them. What a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteI think dress #5 is the most becoming.
ReplyDeleteПлатье №7! шикарное!
ReplyDeleteThere are some nice features in each of them. However, I think #3 is the most flattering to her body type.
ReplyDeleteGee, these dresses are beautiful. Dress #5 looks devine on Amber. Love your site.
