Wedding Barbie II

Finally, I’m talking about the wedding dress! It was indeed the Arietta Sheath dress from Zaftique, in pink. You can see other pictures of the dress if you view my set of wedding photos on Flickr. (Or as my mother calls it, “the Flicka.”) There’s also a pool where you can see fantastic shots by Weetabix and Nonk.

I ended up buying about 10 dresses and ironically, the one I ended up wearing was the least expensive one. The guests, who were contractually obligated to compliment the bride, complimented my dress quite a bit. Most importantly, I was really happy. It was festive without being too traditional. Like me!

And also, we had impromptu fire spinning from Dan and Krista. It doesn’t get much more awesome than that.

    DAMN your boobs look good, girl. If we were in a bar right now I would totally not be looking at your gorgeous eyes but instead at your astounding rack. You look totally awesome.

    Thank you for the link to Zaftique! I have been looking for a dress to wear to my college graduation in December and I’ve found at least 3 I would like to look at. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    You were [and are] super-pretty. It was a glorious event!

  12. spacedcowgirl, on September 18th, 2007 at 2:45 pm Said:

    Very pretty! I especially like the photo where you are standing by the cake with the people who I assume are Ian’s parents (? I’m only guessing that because he looks a lot like them). Anyway, looks like a great wedding! And the dress is very striking and flattering.

    You, your dress, your cake and your hubby are STUNNING. You look incredibly happy, gorgeous and lovely. Congratulations!

  14. Agnes, on September 19th, 2007 at 8:10 am Said:

    That dress is gorgeous on you! You looked great.
    I’m now tempted to go buy that dress myself, hee hee.

  15. lisa-marie, on September 19th, 2007 at 10:02 am Said:

    That dress is beautiful and you look amazing! Congratulations again to you both!!

    You look fantastic, and the dress is lovely. Congratulations on your wedding!

    Congrats on the hitching :) I adore Zaftique and always receive a lot of compliments when I wear the dresses I have purchased from them.
