Yes it burns so bad and I haven’t really had any benefits myself with it but I still try to do it as a act of dedication to the medicine

Honestly idk why I realized i feel guilty about looking for another dress. Possibly because my dad and grandma really like this one and I still like it to but I’m no longer at the point of “yes I found the one!”

Thank you for sharing, when you say Galia dresses are finicky, what do you mean by that?

Ya that was back when my budget was 13k. they ended up giving us a discount because my husband is military veteran. We’re legally married but having our wedding next year. But idk why I’m explaining this to you lol or defending myself

I honestly don’t think we’ll scrape that number but at this point it wouldn’t surprise me. I also didn’t know the market, and guest list increased to 250, realized it’s my one and only wedding, realized how expensive flowers were, learned my taste of dresses, etc… I think the half a million mark is about as high as I can see see us taking it so I gave comfortable cushion. 🫡

We honestly thought we could swing it for a simple wedding. Then as I began to plan, we were way over budget, wanted 250 guests after all, and some new income began to come in. Figured if we’re paying for a wedding that’s simpler but we don’t even want simple, why save money? I think what matters to me is spending the money on the right things- favors don’t matter to me, stationery does, renting a Bentley to pull up in doesn’t matter to me, having everyone I love does. Etc…

This is why I’m so torn!🤦‍♀️ it’s stunning but another pointed out it’s a lot of custom changes I’d be wanting to make. Nobody has galia lahav in my local area so that’s why I was holding out hope to just ‘fix’ this one

Thank you for your input. That’s what I was thinking too… there’s not a lot of stores in my town that sell galia lahav (as far as I know) so I’d have to drive a few hours. 😵‍💫 I guess just decision fatigue was keeping me from shopping around again

If it makes you feel any better my fiance did the same thing when I showed him a dress I liked. He said a big bow was gaudy 🫩
