The DRESS!!!

As every bride would say, I have to find a nice dress for my bridal shower and wedding. Well for me, that was true for my shower dress. I had my wedding dress on order and was searching for the perfect bridal shower dress. I was searching through tons of magazines but did not find the “perfect” one. I went to visit my future aunt (who owns a clothing store) and we started talking about my shower dress. She gave me more books to look through. I finally found the perfect dress for my Hawaiian themed bridal shower. She called her rep, but of course, they just sold the last one and more dresses would not be ready until May 5th (my shower date: April 30th). Well that did not stop me! I searched the internet, shops that carry the line, called all boutiques, went to different towns to check. But no luck. I could envision this dress in my head for weeks, but soon I only had 1 and a 1/2 weeks before my shower and still no dress. I KNEW there had to be at least ONE in the 50 states and in Canada for me to have, because I could feel the dress on me and everyone admiring it at my shower.
So one day I printed 5 toll free numbers and took them with me as I went shopping (again) with a friend. This was my last straw. I gave her the numbers and told her to dial all of them. I called Montreal, number was changed, New York, sold out, California, sold out, Toronto, it was a pharmacy place, so the last one was New Jersey… They had two in stock and one was being sold as we speak! I told her to save it and just ship it with no hesitation!! And it was my size!!!!! I started to break out in the “ugly cry” because I knew it was for me and I got it!
When the dress came in, I tried it on and it was absolutely beautiful. The day of my bridal shower everyone was just amazed at this dress and how good it looked, not only on me but the style of it and all the colours it displayed for my Hawaiin bridal shower!
I am a believer in all the ways and could not have done it without the strength of “The Secret”
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!
P.S. It’s now November and people still compliment me on my dress! Hmmm coincidence, I think not!
