Can I wear white?
Messages:
I have always dreamed of walking down the aisle in a beautiful white dress. I would still like to do so but I don't know if it is appropriate since I already have a child. I have never been married and the man I am marrying is not his natural father although he will be adopting him as soon as we are married. Is it wrong of me to walk down the aisle in white?

We had shopped for hours, my mom and I, and we were having a ball. We knew in our hearts that we would find just the right dress. Five months remained until the wedding; we had plenty of time; we had lots of patience. And then we found it-at J.C. Penney's Bridal Shop.
I remember standing on a dark blue-carpeted platform, surrounded by mirrors. The clerk brought gown after gown for me to try. I felt like a queen, admired by my mom perched in a cozy, overstuffed chair. As soon as she zipped the back of the third dress, we both knew we had found the one.
