Wedding dress shopping has been a shit show. Let me tell you, it isn't easy buying a dress for a wedding occurring in less than six months—never mind the fact that Zara's stomach is going to grow as she gets further along. We have to find something that can essentially be bought off the rack, but that will also fit the future when her body will change.
It's been causing a lot of distress for Zara. It started out extremely uncomfortable because the woman helping us at a store seemed a bit like she was judging Zara and had no idea what sort of dress would be suitable for a pregnant woman.
I honestly thought it was discriminatory towards Zara and that the woman should know how to handle any body shape or size, no matter how fluctuating. It wasn't until I threatened—a bit loudly—to go elsewhere that the owner seemed to catch onto how her employee was treating us.
Even though the owner apologized profusely and offered a discount, Zara didn't feel comfortable trusting her dress to them after all of that.
Which is why we went to a different store. Although it's not Zara's first choice, it's had much nicer staff and larger selection. Plus, it's actually closer to home.
I adjust myself on the sofa, sipping on my champagne as Zara spins another time in the mirror. She's been wearing the same dress for at least twenty minutes now, but she hasn't dropped the hammer and made the decision.
The first few wedding gowns she'd tried on were tight and form fitting. However, despite looking beautiful in all of them, she felt self-conscious about how big her belly will get. Nadia and I assured her that she'd look gorgeous and glowing, but I think she's mentally struggling and in a weird space because of her changing hormones.
