Well not really, but since Allison asked...I give you the front of the fish dress.
It's not nearly as hideous from the front but the back really does it in. I'd be playing with it and making fishey faces on our wedding day which really won't look so hot in the photos. The fact I look like there should be people from greenpeace urging me to go back to the sea doesn't help it either. Here's the dress on a pretty model.

I've already decided on a strapless dress, but it does come with optional straps which I'll likely use at the reception.

Meringue-ey goodness

If the reference to the dress below weren't enough to confirm my mental maturity level is at the same level as your average four year old I offer this one:



When I tried this perfectly beautiful dress I didn't like it because I thought I looked like a big meringue topped pie.

Heeeeerrree fishy, fishy fishy!

If I try on an (otherwise beautiful) wedding dress and immediately decide I don't like it because the back of it makes me look like a cuttlefish does that mean I'm not mature enough to get married? Does likening bridal gowns to cephalopods (and demonstrating it to the sales lady) confirm my mental maturity is equivalent to that of a 4 year old? I think my mother and sister were somewhat mortified.


Either way, tomorrow the search continues with a contingent of friends to help along the way. I'll feel much more organized about the whole wedding thing once the dress part is out of the way.
