She Choose White Bridesmaid Dresses

Kellie high school sweetheart popped the question. He had done everything by the book, the slow music, on one knee, and a gorgeous engagement ring. Having dated him for several years, there was no other answer for her, but yes. She was thrilled, and with multiple engagement pictures on her social media walls, she had embarked on her wedding planning journey.

She was out with her girls trying on their bridesmaid dresses just two weeks to the wedding when she got the call from Joe. “Babe, I think I made a mistake, I am not ready for marriage.” Kellie heard the words echo into her brain; she doesn’t remember how the rest of the conversation. When at last, she looked up tears filling her eyes, her girls were all around her and in their bridesmaid dresses no less, trying to comfort her.

It took her months to get over the depression that overcame, and she says that without her girls, she wouldn’t have made it through a week. A year later, she finally found her way back into the dating scene.

Kellie met Joe when she was almost giving up on a first date, mostly because she found most dates to be dull. She says that the minute she set her eyes on him, she knew he was different. They became inseparable, or as Kellie puts it, he was the ying to her yang and all that Jazz. Despite this, she was still convinced that she didn’t want to go through with a formal wedding.

So when Joe asked for her hand in marriage just a day before she turned thirty, she didn’t know what to say. She just burst out crying, and Joe just held her in his arms. She finally allowed him to place the ring on her finger.

Now Kellie was at The Dress Shop by Ahadi with her bridesmaid, the same girls she had chosen the first time. She told me that she wanted her girls to wear white with her because she felt like they had been through so much together. She wanted to share this special day with them as much as possible.

I was overwhelmed by her story and was bent on seeing that Kellie got precisely what she wanted. We brought out a variety of our white bridesmaid dresses, all in different designs. They tried on several of the pieces, and they fell in love with most of them.

Finally, they fell in love with this gorgeous full-length white dress with a flattering V-neck. It was the favorite style for all of them since it favors all body types. Our bride was thrilled with this choice, she still hadn’t decided on the accessories, but her girls were leaning towards silver.

Kellie still has a few weeks before her wedding, but something tells me that she will have a blast on that day. I can’t wait to see the wedding pictures for the big reveal of her wedding dress; she promises that it will blend beautifully with the bridesmaid dresses.
