I understand that women do weddings on all sorts of budgets, and that's okay. I have no issues with having a small wedding, or buying a less expensive dress. With the economy the way it these days, I think spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on an event that last six hours is frivolous.
On the other hand...it is your wedding dress! A dress that you will be photographed in, a dress that you may even hand down to your daughter.
I have a hard time picturing buying my dress, for the very special day, in the same warehouse where I can purchase a casket.
Can you imagine dropping you car off to have your tires rotated while you look at dresses? And where are you changing? Behind the mattresses and vacuum cleaners? And oh, while you hem it, I'll go grab some lawn furniture and a wheel of cheese...
PS No carts allowed in the bridal area.

Funny! I had no idea they carried wedding dresses. I'd probably be the one buying my dress while have my tires rotated. ;-)

LOL! Never knew that you could do that! Not really thinking costco is a place people will naturally think of to buy one! I am following you back! Thanks for stopping by! :)
Funny! I have to agree with buying a wedding gown a few aisles down from the caskets........weird.

Following you from your MBC post on FBC when you get a chance check out my blog as well. LOVE THE POST BTW and it's true I was talking with a friend the other night about casket's and he said around where I live it would fit cause some GOOD OLE BOY would back that F - 150 right up to the loading dock and demand that casket go home with him....LOL
Thanks Again,

Thanks for following me- Im returning the favor. I loved visiting your blog and enjoyed reading this post!
This is too funy! I love Costco and some would consider me an addict, but I would never think or imagine buying a wedding gown there. I am a new follower from the link party! Check out my blog if you get a chance: http://mysweetpotato3.blogspot.com/
I absolutely love Costco, but the ones around here don't sell wedding dresses.....yet..... I thought I'd seen it all when they started selling caskets. They can marry you and bury you, I guess!
Too funny! I'm your newest follower from the MBC. Hope you'll follow me back. http://cherishedhandmadetreasures.blogspot.com/
I don't know how I found your site. Maybe MomBloggersclub or something. But I love it!
The bra straps...Then the barbies...LMAO.
Thanks.

You don't realize how important the "right" dress is until after the day and you see the pictures. I had to borrow my 1st dress (I've been married twice) and I hated it! I swore I wouldn't spend a lot on the 2nd wedding but I did spend money on the dress!!
Thanks for stopping by. I am now a follower. :)
So funny! Reminded me that years ago there was a store in town 'Sherry's Carpet Cleaning and Loungerie Shop' I swear! Can't make that up!

That is hilarious! Although, Costco does have some pretty cool stuff so I bet their styles are not bad. Can't be worse than the David's Bridal experience.
Following back!
I will NEVER forget the line from that movie. Wasn't it hilarious? Here from sunny Australia. Glad I've found your blog. x
Fun post!
