Now I don't have to get married naked!

Yesterday my mom, my MoH and I headed to Austin for one last day of wedding dress shopping. I had made my first dress appointment at Unbridaled in Austin for yesterday at 2. Since they were having a sample sale I made 6 other appointments at places in SA and Austin, so if I found one at the sale, I could buy it without hesitation.
After trying on about....50 other dresses on Thursday, Friday with my mom in San Antonio and Saturday with my mom and Ariane in Austin, I had it narrowed down to two. I hadn't had "the feeling" with either of the two, but they were close to perfect and I thought I may not be the kind of girl that gets the super emotional, "I found the dress" feeling.
Fortunately, I was wrong. We headed to Unbridaled yesterday at 2 to try on sample sale dresses and their other dresses that you just order. I tried on a few sample sale dresses, but they were nooo bueno and I had tried on about 15 dresses that the attendant had picked out, none of which I was crazy about. We were about to leave when I saw a few more I wanted to try on. One of them was THE dress. I put it on and just knew...just like the old cliche goes. I even had a little tear when I showed my mom and Ariane!  We decided to go have dinner and think about the dress and make sure that is the one I wanted to order. We got about 2 miles down the road and turned around. I knew it was the perfect one I wanted!\

Afterward we had a celebratory dinner and cupcake in Austin from Hello Cupcake. They were better than Cupcake Couture in SA and now take the coveted title of Kristin's Favorite Cupcake. Unfortunately, I will have to reign that little habit in so I can look super hot in my beautiful dress!










In addition to all of the dress excitement, Jason and I ordered our Save the Dates (all 15 of them) for our Nassau wedding and are working on a guest list for our San Antonio reception. They are luggage tag magnets from Mavora and will look something like this:


We also got in all of our awesome engagement pictures from LemonYellowBlack. Here are a few of the favorites: 




Thanks for reading this giant post!
