Today marks my first year wedding anniversary! I remember that day so well-- I was so nervous about my dress-- I know that sounds odd but I knew my husband loved me, I knew he loved my body even if society didn't, I knew "we" would be okay but for the strangest reason I focused on the #weddingdress and how it would fit, if I was showing to much arms or cleavage, if it made me look bigger or if it disguised my amply shaped hips and thighs--- I was a little paranoid but once I got to the altar and saw my husbands face streaming with tears I instantly snapped out of it. A soft voice inside of me said, "Kristal you are fearfully and wonderfully made the dress doesn't make you -- you make the dress!!" So as I walked down the aisle in all my glory I said I do to forever and I have never looked back. If you are a #curvybride planning your #wedding and you have apprehensions about #shopping for your #weddingdress don't worry there are a lot more options out there and since my wedding day I have been committed to finding the best boutiques, vendors and designers that cater to #plussizebrides. If you want to be part of my new venture tag me #adashofbleu and I will feature all #curvybrides , #bridaldesigners , #bridalvendors and #bridalboutique. Www.adashofbleu.com coming April 2016!
