I just bought my dress! (relationship priviledge trigger)

I bought it at Passional, a local fetish store. It's beautiful!!

I'm so excited. I love it. I went into the store yesterday just browsing, and the guy indicated it to me when I mentioned I was getting married. It was marked down from $1,899.00 to THREE HUNDRED!! AND they're letting me do a layaway plan!! As soon as I get it in my house, I'll be taking pictures. You can't use cameras in their store because most of their stuff is custom, but once I get it home I can take all the pictures I want to.

I'm going to be doing more beading on it, and I'll be wearing a necklace (that I haven't found yet) with a big purple jewel or a necklace like that one made with purple and lilac crystal beads, even if I finally have to make one myself. I don't want to go that route because I'm a huge procrastinator and I'm already DIYing most everything, but I want what I want, and I'm crafty, so if I have to do it than I will.

I also designed the invitations:

I know the purple looks garish on the image, but like most things it looks a lot more toned down in the printout. And that's a rough draft, it's lined up a lot better now, but I'm too lazy to reupload to photobucket.

With buying this dress, I have to change pretty much everything about the wedding but the color scheme. I haven't decided what I'm going to ask my bridesmaid and MOH to wear yet (originally it was black pencil skirts and lilac embroidered black cardigan sweaters, but that doesn't seem fancy enough for this dress) I might just have them get a nice dress in black or purple. I'm planning on buying their jewelry as a gift. I am so excited!

Hmm. My pictures didn't

Hmm. My pictures didn't post. Probably because I used html code instead of the little button. Here's the dress: And here's the invite:
