We walked in and started looking through the racks, pulling dresses that we thought might fit my expanding criteria (I wanted rouching, a little bit of bling, and not too plain of a back). It started looking promising! There was more than one dress that might actually be it, which was definitely not the case in other salons where we had shopped previously.
When I put on the Blue by Enzoani Brooklyn, I had finally found a dress that left nothing to be desired. I didn't have "the moment" that you always hear about on Say Yes to the Dress...but as my little, Kristi, said, I had kind of a "mini moment" where I knew I had made my decision. I only wanted to alter the beading on the front of the dress a tad, and Peggy, my consultant, assured me there would be no problem doing so. :)
As I said, the model pictures of dresses are horrendous. So here are the model pictures and some random pictures I found of the dress online!

I think what really solidified that I had picked my dress when they turned off the lights and put a spotlight on me, and I could see how the "bling" sparkled from every angle. It was so pretty! :)

Even though I was pretty sure that this was THE DRESS, I decided to take some time to think on it. I called Brian's mom and she met me, my mom, my sister Jennifer, and my "sister" Kristi at Basta Pasta for lunch. After a delicious meal, we returned to the salon and I got into the dress again.
It was, most definitely, IT. We put a deposit down right there!
