Hope is not lost

Thanks for the comments after my disappointment about the dress. I was really sad when it didn't fit! I had been so anxious and, honestly, a little nervous about it all day, so I didn't realize how much I wanted it to work.

What I loved about the dress was that it was soft, light and flowy, which is what I want my dress to be for the Florida wedding. What I really loved about the dress is that it was $109 (On sale today for $55, which means the shipping would've been way cheaper if I'd ordered it today, but whatever. That's my luck with this dress.).

Since I only want to spend $500 at the most on my dress for our "real" wedding in Dallas, I want this one to be somewhere around $100 -- $150 at the most, if possible. Thanks to Jes's suggestion, I checked out J.Crew, where I found another gorgeous dress ... for $250. I won't be buying the dress, since it's a little more than I want to pay, but it has renewed my faith in the search for the dress. And at least I know if the dress hanging in my closet didn't work, there's definitely a better one out there!

UPDATE!!!

Okay, so I just found this other totally perfect (and pretty similar to the first one) dress, and it's only $100. Yay! This one is also only online (what's up with that?!). I very well may order this dress tonight.
