Civil Wedding Ceremony Attire (pics)

We opted for a very simple and intimate civil wedding... I did not have to go shopping for too long to find a dress that would be acceptable. The dress is a white greek style single arm knee-long dress. It also cost me a whoooooping...$19.99!!!!


My shoes were from a local store; got them for less than $35... I love the gold and the little diamonds, and I also really like the little glittery stuff under the shoe.


And finally my little creamy gold purse that I stole from my auntie's closet...


And here is the final result... (I had to do my hair myself since I only had about 45 minutes to get ready after coming back from work. I ended up doing my hair the evening before and just added the hairpiece when I was getting ready).

Missy Tee's, I love your blog!!!! It's pleasure reading your posts. I have you on my blogroll on my other blog (http://www.sizzlingsasi.blogspot.com). Thanks ooo!! The dress I got it from Ross, I'm the kind who digs through other dresses lol. I have never bought a dress that costs more than $24. My tops used to be never over $10. I have now upgraded to never under $17 ($16.99 to be exact) LOL. Living on budget is definitely a lifestyle for me ooo!!

HoneyDame, sorry I didn't answer your question. No this was in Maryland. It was just the both of us and my aunt for the video and my sis for the pictures. And the planning described on this blog is for my traditional wedding (which is/was the most important to me).
