Since we were debating our date, I decided that I needed to go try on dresses :) My mom, my future mother-in-law, and my future sis-in-law went last Sunday. I really went to just see what styles I liked and which were definitely not me. I found one dress at David's Bridal that I ABSOLUTELY loved on the mannequin. It was the first dress that I tried on, and I really liked it. I didn't love it though. I tried on another, which I liked better, and then I tried on THE ONE! I came out of the dressing room smiling SO big, and I knew that it was my dress :) I LOVE IT! I tried on two other dresses just to make sure that I wasn't going to love any other dress in the store. So, a year and 4 months before my wedding and I bought my dress :) However, it may be a blessing because It has to be ordered, and have alterations before I can bring it home. The ladies at David's Bridal were awesome :) They were so nice and helpful! I can't believe that I tried on 5 wedding dresses and found mine. I went dress shopping for a dining-in function for Mr. R's ROTC, and I tried on about 50 dresses. I guess when you find "the one" you just know :)
While we were getting my dress, I went ahead and decided that my future-sis-in-law (she's 6) will be my flower girl :) We also bought her dress - it is SO cute! I love it! :)
That's all for now! Trying to play catch up :)

About our Big Day
I decided that I would start a blog to keep everyone updated on what we have going on with our wedding plans :) I have found out VERY quickly that weddings are VERY difficult to plan.
Anyway.. on to the wedding details :)
We first set our date for Aug 4, 2012, but some issues have come up. Mr. R will be going to field training next summer which could be any five weeks between May and August. We also have a family member that will be deploying and will not be back until next year. We had to debate which day would be the best for everyone. We were between December 2011, March 2012, or August 2012. Our hearts have led us to move our date to Aug 10, 2012 in hopes that it will work out for the best. So, as of now, that is our big day. I am so excited and cannot wait to be Mr. R's wife :)
That's all for now!! :)
