Bridesmaid Dress Search

I know what you're all thinking: "NOT AGAIN?! WE'VE ALREADY BEEN THROUGH ONE DRESS SEARCH WITH YOU NICOLE AND WE SIMPLY CAN'T STOMACH ANOTHER." Well, fear not brave blog readers! I can tell you with certainty that the bridesmaid dress search will not be anywhere near as painfully endless as my dress search was. Why? BECAUSE IT'S CRUNCH TIME! :( Apparently bridesmaid dresses usually take anywhere from 3-4 months to come in which puts me into trouble because we have less than 5 months left till the wedding.... ahhhhh! Good thing my trusty bridesmaid-to-be Maggie was ready to dive right into the task at hand on post-Christmas day, along with assistance from my mom, Aunt Barbara and Aunt Beth.

We hit 2 shops in Virginia Beach and found a couple contenders! Here are some pics from the day's adventures:

(Maggie in a pretty Mori Lee gown Stacey and I found in November!)


(There were no dress clips in sight so we had to improvise...)

We found 3-4 possibilities that I need to further "research", so stay tuned! None of the dresses met Uncle Chick's stringent "turtleneck standard" (sorry Uncle Chick!) but I'm sure he'll find a way to work around that hurdle. ;)
