My sister and her boyfriend Xavier have been dating two years – he proposed a few weekends ago!

She has a gorgeous sapphire ring to go with it!

They wanted a fall wedding but the dates are slim with my weddings already scheduled – so they picked September 12th of this year – which isn’t too far away!

Yesterday we went shopping with our mom and cousin Vanessa to find ideas for a dress. Samm was sure that there wouldn’t be any buying yesterday but left with her dress in hand!

I have pictures of her dress – but it will remain a secret!

The first dress she tried on was the one she ended up buying – I’ll show you the ones that didn’t make the cut!

This was the 2nd dress – we liked it – but it is a little too fancy!

3rd dress – this one didn’t make much of a list at all …

4th – this was Samm’s second choice – so pretty and simple!

5th dress – again – too fancy!

I loved that dress I have on – but I don’t have enough support for it! If it were an indoor wedding – it would have been the one – but since it is outdoor – I needed something a little more free. Vanessa will be in the truffle color that I have on.

6th dress – fanciness!

last dress – my 2nd favorite! It reminds me of The Princess Bride!

The truffle and pool are the dress colors – the orange will be the accents in the flowers and decorations!

They are GREAT fall colors!

The back of that truffle dress that I loved!

These are THE dresses! Vanessa will be in the truffle that I had on earlier and I will be in pool – we wanted it the other way around but the junior dresses don’t come in pool.

LOVE IT!

This is just a beautiful dress I saw and loved! I saw a girl trying it on and had to ask if it was her dress – then had to ask if she had a photographer! She did.

It was a LONG day – but FUN!

I think I might look into working at David’s Bridal part-time! It would be so much fun!

I JUST LOVE WEDDINGS!
