I went with my good friend Mandy to find bridesmaid dresses. We found a good dress that looks good on a lot of people and matches the color scheme. It will be in dark silver.
I also found an adorable dress that I hope works for my little flower girls. They will be so adorable in those dresses!
Hopefully this will be the last of the decisions that need to be made until after midterms. YAY!

The Dress is Ordered!
On Saturday I went and got fitted for my dress. They will be ordering it today for me. I also picked out my veil and am getting my shoes died the dark red of part of the dress. I have several photos of the dress that I will gladly share, but Josiah isn't allowed to see them. If you'd like me to send them to you e-mail me at h.baker@utah.edu. I would love to post the dress here, but that will have to be after the fact.
I'm getting SOOOOOO excited!

After an hour and a half Heather is still a knockout after traipsing about the woods surrounding Silver Lake. It was an afternoon neither of us will ever forget. Thanks goes to Benjamin for his time and effort in doing an incredible job. Also to Andrew for his time and effort as caddy and comic relief.
Wedding Shoes
Money has officially exchanged hands regarding our wedding! Last weekend I went and purchased my shoes for the wedding.
Josiah's mom and I hit up a couple of shoe stores in the area. The first store was a bridal store so they had a decent selection of shoes for weddings, but only one that fit my criteria:
-comfortable enough
-no more than a 2 inch heel
-a wider based heel (meaning no spike heels)
-I don't walk goofy when wearing them
I didn't want to commit just yet so we headed off to another shoe store (regular shoe store). I had shopped around on the store's website and found a pair I wanted to try on. The reviews for the shoe were pretty good. Two people had worn them for their weddings and said they were just as comfortable as could be. I must say, they were CRAZY. They were highly uncomfortable. I felt like I was walking on a board.
Needless to say, I selected the first shoes I found and purchased inserts for them and will take them back to get dyed after I get measured for my dress tomorrow.
Oh, the part that most girls care about, the description:
The shoes have about a 1 1/2 inch heel that is more like a box heel (it skinnies down then flares out). The shoe has a small ribbon across the toe that goes over s a plasticy material that is way more comfortable than typical plasticy shoe stuff. They will be dyed off white to match my dress.
