Show us Your Wedding Dress

I'm joining the " dress party" over at Kelly's Korner. We are showing off our wedding dresses, and since it was my FAVORITE part of my wedding (except the groom of course) you can count me IN! What is it about a wedding dress that makes everything in your wedding just feel right? I wish I could wear it again and again, but that would be weird- Riiiight? ok, yeah.
Here is my dresses story:
I had narrowed my dress choice down to 2 (at two different bridal salons). So I took my mom to show her the final choices. After the try on, while walking out of the store, a dress caught my eye and it stopped me in my tracks. WAIT! I haven't seen THIS one before. So I tried it on, and my mom and I both knew it was "the one". =) I wanted strapless, and this dress obviously isn't but it knew better than I did. It called to me. The dress is by La Sposa-Pronovias. Model name "Scala" in ivory. So without further adou:

My friend Casey and I got married right around the same time and bought our dresses at the same shop. Here we are at one of our fittings:
