my mom used to get so embarassed by her 14 year old daughter who would flip through the wedding mags in the checkout line at the grocery store. i remember my mom's exasperated conversation with the check-out girl over my ooohs and aaahs at candice cameron's wedding.
but. it was all made right when i started decorating wedding cakes and needed the mags for "inspiration". riiiight, mom?
15 years later... still no prospects, still no reason for a wedding... but the same secret peeks at other people's dream weddings.... and a marked improvement in taste and a knowledge of what's quality and what's not....
i don't want a wedding.
just a pretty dress.
enter bhldn.
mom, dad... for $1030.... this wedding can be yours mine ours:
believe it or not, it's the cheapest one on the site.
you guys, $50 says my mom just said - out loud to herself in her office - "aubry, you'd be showing too much chest! you might have to put a t-shirt under that jumper."
since any single piece seen in a department store that's not a crewneck with full sleeves is off the list in her mind. i've been trying to teach her the skill of creative layering for years.....
and: remember, mom, i'm not really getting married to anyone, so this isn't reality.
there's always this option, too... mom.
it has a bowwwww! your favorite....
paired with these shoes. also donning a bow. heaven.
i'm just saying..... i'm not asking for the world. i could rob you for all you've got playing this "but i'm your only daughter" card.
and just think about those poor families with 6 girls.....
i think i'm being pretty reasonable.
bride's wedding attire: $1030
parental bribe money owed to my future mate: $50 {inflation pending}
getting your 29 year old daughter married off.........
priceless?
