The Cheating on my wedding continued as I tried to stay in communication with my MOH about her quick wedding that is in less than 3 months. I encouraged her to pick the BM dresses out ASAP as usually you need 6-8 weeks AT LEAST to get them ordered by. So she quickly picked them and off I went to Davids Bridal to get my dress. I would be in Candy pink and the other girls would be in pool, which is like a light blueish/green.
However, when I went to the store, after trying on the dress she picked for me, which was great by-the-way, the lady came back and looked like she was hit by a truck. I had pre-warned her that I knew it was really close to the wedding, and that they may have to be rushed, and how we are planning this wedding last minute, so whatever she has to do to make it work, I will figure it out $$ wise. "This dress, as well as any others that are this length, cannot come in candy pink before September" whhhaat!? My MOH has a lot going on, so apparently she forgot to check this detail. Now, worried that I don't want her to think I am changing the dress or her chosen colors, I slightly panicked inside. Then I pulled myself together and called her. She didn't answer, as usual. So I called again and then I called her mother. Luckily, while I was on the phone with her mom, she called me back. Two and half hours later, crisis resolved, and the two of us worked together through phone picture mail to pick a new dress for me and the coordinating flower girls. Luckily, the plans I had for the rest of the day, were nothing major, as you know how busy I am, and we could get this done. I will now be in a shorter dress then the rest of the party, as mine will be below the knee and theirs will be mid-calve but that was the only option we really had. And the color will be "PInk" which is a paler pink.

I dont know if you can tell, but my dress has little iridescent dots on it, that actually pick up blue reflections, certain ways you turn.
Here's another pic of my dress, just in a different color, but you may be able to see the dots better. Its like the new hit dress for DB so you probably have seen the advertisement for it.
So I go to check out and wouldnt you know, next crisis. My MOH never registered so there is no name to put it under. BRIDAL TIP: If you are getting dresses all in one location/store, the bride should pre-register so that the shop has all the dresses under one location and has the wedding date and details all in there. Also, then if there is an issue, they have a contact person as opposed to having to call all the BMs. Whoops, she probably didn't think about this detail either. Do I call her back after the last 2 hour session that totally freaked her out? I didn't. Luckily I had gone shopping there for dresses last month for my wedding, so the poor sales lady who I put through a long morning, agree to just put it under the OTHER category under my name. I don't know what the other girls will do when they go, but I made sure, as the good MOH that I am, that their dress came in the color POOL and would be in on time, so it should be much easier and shorter visit for them.
Anyone else have a BM dress crisis while order their dress?
