My wedding dress was $1000. I LOVE it and plan to keep it as an heirloom.

My mother bought 10 extra yards of material in case I wanted to make a ring pillow, etc. But, before we were married, I decided to keep the material and make baby blankets out of them...

We will bring Max home in his new blanket. (It's the satin from the dress with a softer, inner lining... ) The blanket should be made by June 10th!

BTW, I have never regretted spending a bit extra to find a dress that was perfect for me.

I do not regret skipping the all-popular David's Bridal in favor of a bridal boutique. David's Bridal had ugly dresses then. And, the saleslady kept ignoring me in favor of the girls who shopped with their mothers. Then, when I demanded someone help me, they tried to tell me anything I put on was THE dress for me...

At the boutique, they would tell me if I looked like crap in certain styles!

(Maggie Sottero is an awesome company. The dress was PERFECTLY made to my exact measurements...)
