Laga, way less. Those Dark Garden gowns run $3000-$8000, which blows my mind. Barb, both are dropped waist strapless with gorgeous detail.
ETA: the bodices are fitted tightly through the waist
Yes. Men like sports. Men watch the action movie, they eat of the beef, and enjoy to look at the bosoms. A thousand years of avenging our wrongs and that's all you've learned?

Sounds gorgeous. I swear, I'm such a formal gown whore.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Mmm those do sound delicious.

It's hard, because Drew would really prefer I just go non-traditional and wear something simple and not white, but a wedding really is one of the only times a woman today gets to truly dress UP in that way, and I'll admit that I never felt prettier than I did in my wedding gown at my first wedding (which was a relatively cheaply made knockoff retailing at $400). I kind of still want to be a bride, especially since I get to wear the dress twice (once just us in Hawaii and once at the big wedding party a couple of weeks later). So we'll see. I just don't know yet.
It's weird not having my mom or any bridesmaids to look and help me figure this out.

You know, I get it Kristin-- I think if I had an opportunity to have another ceremony, I might well go simpler than I did the first time but I'd definitely want something very elegant and not everyday.
Something like this, probably:
Of course, I'm also fortunate in that I get to indulge my formalwear fetish at least once a year at RWA National, so I get my fix that way as well. *g*

Why do you think we all get so excited about Prom? Well, lots of reasons, but that's a biggie.

Thanks for the birthday wishes everyone.
