Dress Shopping on Saturday.... with a road trip

This was originally written back in October- but somehow I forgot to post it.

I"m excited but nervous about tomorrow. I, along with my mom and good friend, are headed to Rochester to look at wedding dresses.  I"m going to check out Jenni's Bridal Boutique and Mestad's.  I have appointments at both.  My good friend who is coming with is pregnant- so I hope we don't wear her out!  My mom,  in her own words can be domineering.  I'm not worried about being a Bridezilla, but I'm worried about her turning into Momzilla.  I think my best bet is to stick with my plan of paying for my dress myself since she has so much on her plate right now.

I can only hope that she doesn't get too domineering and will listen to some common sense tomorrow.  I'm holding my breath  for now- we'll see how it goes I guess! 

I like to think I'm fairly logical in how I think about wedding budget, what's within my means to pay for things and what not.  When my fiance, my mom, and myself were all sitting down together and the conversation turned to wedding plans- things started spiraling out of control.  She later apologized, but I am concerned about a repeat performance.  I just want everything to go smoothly and I don't want to end up fighting with my own mother. Sad.

I have to remind myself not to put too much energy into stressing out about things that haven't happened and things I have no control over.

We'll see how it goes.  I'm pretty sure I won't be ordering anything tomorrow to avoid a blow out.
