I’m not a gown up type of individual. If I can’t put on leggings, perhaps denims, I don’t go. I simply don’t. It’s a private alternative that I’ve embraced.
However my daughter’s marriage ceremony…and being the Matron of Honor, I needed to step it up. Final week, I did a mini vogue present throughout a household dinner to get some steering from my household.
Any guesses on what they voted on?
Ultimately, I despatched this image to each my ladies. Their vote was unanimous. In truth, throughout the board, one was a determined favourite with the second place being diverse.
I ended up holding 3 of the clothes. If I don’t put on one to the marriage, it would get returned, however I’ll maintain the opposite two.
The Value
I can let you know that one in all these clothes value as a lot as the opposite 5 altogether. Any guess on what the costliest gown of the set was? I can let you know that it was not the one chosen. And albeit, the fee was the first cause I went attempting to find alternates. Two of those clothes are from TikTok store, three are from Amazon, and one is from an area division retailer.
The gown that I’ll almost definitely put on within the marriage ceremony value me $29. Any guesses?
And fortunately, I get to go barefoot, so no sneakers have been bought. I did convey a nicer pair for the reception, however will go barefoot for the marriage itself. Yeah! However I’m speculated to put on pearls, considering that can be a Walmart buy.
I do know this…if I ever get married once more, I cannot have a giant marriage ceremony. Not even a medium marriage ceremony. And I’ll put on no matter I’m comfy in versus a marriage gown. I’d prefer to say I’ll put on denims, however I feel even I might acquiesce and put on some type of gown.
