Oh lord, that 'zebra stripe' situation was no bueno! Those lines really needed to line up. You can absolutely feel confident in your decision to go in another direction. Like you said, it's too much money and too important to not have it be perfect!
Aaahhh based on the runners-up, I KNOW the ONE has got to be breathtaking. Congrats! Thank you so much for sharing with us. This is so fun and cathartic watching you again
I literally grew up with you and Elle as my older internet sisters!! I’m screaming with excitement for you Blair. Thank you for taking us along with you. This is making my heart feel so nostalgic and warm knowing we are going to join you in your bride era 🥹🥹🩷 that lace dress with the off shoulder sleeves was GORGEOUS GORGEOUS on you. I cannot wait to see the dress you picked 😍
You are the first English speaking youtuber I watched when I was learning English. It's so fun to see you again, it feels very nostalgic ! I also speak English now ahaha
I loved hearing your thoughts about not altering a dress so much that changes the design intent. As a fellow interior designer, I sooo get that! I may not know a thing about fashion design, but I know better than to throw off the balance of someone's creation! So excited to see what you landed on--I know it'll be gorgeous!
My favorite was definitely the lace off the shoulder, but I liked something about all of them. Thank you for sharing!!! I hardly ever watch UA-cam anymore, but you and Elle are what bring me back!!!
i am living for the return of your channel because it's so clear how much has changed in your life. you see so mature, settled, and sure of yourself. before you were so energizing to watch and now it's still exciting but it's also calming, which is (no offense) new lol. plus, it's just refreshing to hear you say things like "that dress was wonderful but over budget" as a key reason not to buy something, in this age of one upping status symbols. the rejects were gorgeous, so i'm sure the one you went with is immaculate!
I love the aesthetic of the room! Ever since you made the engagement announcement video, I’m just low key staring at the wallpaper and decor details, I love it! As someone who had a degree is fashion design, I’m very excited to look at the dresses and hear your comments on what you liked and maybe didn’t like as much. It’s such a personal choice.
I'm a longform content girlie too.. so grateful for those of you that still create it! You looked absolutely stunning in all the dresses, but that last one, HOLY SMOKES! I could see why you almost picked it!
I love that when you know it’s the dress you just know. I tried on so many and as soon as I stepped into MY dress I went ‘oh’ and just knew. You will look gorgeous because your smile and your aura will be glowing!
Blair, I truly enjoyed this video. To see you now and who you have blossomed into is such a wonderful thing. 15 year old you would be SO proud of the woman that you are. Thanks for taking us along with you on your life journey. The wisdom and experience that you have navigated and all you have overcome and achieved are shining through in the best way. Best of luck on this next chapter.
I also prefer long form content so loving these long videos. I liked what you said about having people see you, not just "the dress" on your wedding day. I never thought about that when I got married but I think that makes a lot of sense.
Moments I teared up and literally almost cried: When you talked about wanting to snuggle up to him for the pictures and at the end when you were talking about that moment between you two when he see's the dress. I'm so excited for you.
You and Elle were the first two people I ever subbed to on UA-cam. I was in grade 9 or 10 at the time. It feels like catching up with an old friend… I just got married last month! I would love all the wedding content. And the rambly chit chats. You are glowing, and I hope you’ll continue posting long form videos for many years to come ☺️
The 2nd to last dress was my absolute favorite! So so lovely. Do you mine sharing the brand and style? This was so fun to watch, can't believe you're getting married, I have watched you for 13 years now!!! Will always love and support you
You were so right about that zebra stripe effect, it's gorgeous but it would drive me crazy to...especially with it costing a pretty penny❤. I can't wait to see the big dress reveal!
This felt like trying in my dresses all over again over 15 years ago !! Picking your dress is so fun and over I got married 15 years ago and I still am obsessed with my dress !! Your thought process shows that you too will love yours years later xo you will be the worlds most gorgeous bride and I can’t wait for the whole day xo
You looked beautiful in every one of these dresses. The ones with a drapé looked particularly elegant and timeless. But the best one will definitely be the one you picked with your heart and forever lover in mind. Your excitement speaks volumes about your level of happiness. ❤
Oh there were some beautiful gowns in there. It is so hard to choose isn’t it? You looked beautiful in all of them. Can’t wait to see the one you chose!
These are such gorgeous dresses. Looking forward to seeing you on your big day. I bet you’ll have amazing video content too. You both are good looking but more importantly seem like such kind people - it’s lovely to see you shining and thriving!
Oh my goodness, I love the third dress. Of course, everything looked incredible on you! I also agree about the dress that was almost yours - I wish the folds lined up, and idk why they didn't do that? Also a good idea to go with something a little slimmer. I had a ballgown at my wedding, I loved it & felt like a princess, but it wasn't the easiest to dance in with my husband.
i love the long form content. thats how i started watching your content and i feel like my attention span suffers with tiktok, though i go down the rabbit hole. but long form i can sit and eat lunch or just sit and relax and relax without having to change to the next thing so fast
🥂😍 Congratulations Blair! You two are such a beautiful couple but really happy that you went wedding dress shopping! Thanks for always making us smile!!!
seated with my salad and chicken! my gosh Blair, I used to just look up to you as a high school student and now you're getting married 🥺 thanks for sharing this journey with us!! you're stunning in these dresses!! also, your hair in this video and ig story is so beautiful!!
girlll the fact that you even thought you could get away with only doing this in short form! if there's anything we know about you, you ARE a blabbermouth 😂 all of these gowns looked great on you, but I definitely agree with you on the "it's a no from me, dawg" dress - with how shiny it was it looked so dark and the waist was so low at the front that it looked like a swimsuit! Also, I totally understand that you didn't want a photo of yourself in your actual wedding dress, but I hope that whoever was with you on that trip (sister, mom, friend etc.) got a picture or video of you in it so you can make sure you ACTUALLY get the dress back that you ordered once it's made/been altered etc!
I am not even CLOSE to being married but yet I am so deeply engaged with this video and loved absolutely every second of it! Also, shoutout to Blair for taking us along the journey and being so open! Lot of these things can be such intimate moments but appreciate you for including us in your journey :)
Congratulations Blair! I’ve been watching your vlogs since forever ago. I’m so happy you’ve found true love and wishing you many years of health, love and happiness! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Omg I love the first dress on you so much. Minus the ruffles. It gives you such a beautiful shape and you look incredible in lace. Ahhh I’m hoping your actual dress is lace!!
I am loving this. It feels like you're in your childhood friend's wedding since I have been watching your videos since 2008. I am glad you prefer the long form. I love UA-cam still..
I’m so here for you being back on youtube. You were the first influencer I ever followed. I’m so happy for you and where your life journey has taken you!
Love all the dresses. That off the rack lace dress made me gasp you were so gorgeous in it. Can’t wait to see your final dress. You will be gorgeous in any dress.
You look so beautiful in every dress! I love your whole thought process and how you waited for the right one. In a way, the time restriction probably got you to "the dress" quicker by narrowing your choices. The ballgown is my favorite. Can't wait to see the one you picked.
Absolutely loved this video! I got married 2 months ago and I really enjoyed the whole process of organizing the party and choosing my dress, hairstyle, MUA, etc. (although it was quite stressful, too 😅). Enjoy this unique moments before the big day!!! This is a wonderful experience! 😍
I saw your stories where you said you’d put together a reel and I’m so glad you decided to do a UA-cam video in the end! So good to talk through all the details and decision points
Glad you made the UA-cam video rather than a reel or short❤. Wish you all the happiness and joy, feels so good to see you enjoying the phase of your life you always desired❤
I love the dresses you looked great on all of them very different choices I’m glad you found the one I remember I didn’t get to try on a lot of dresses I was short on time I didn’t know it takes months or a year to have a perfect wedding dress ready
Blair!!! I've been watching you since I was like 9 years old. You're literally the reason why I wanted to learn how to solve the rubiks cube and became obsessed with lilly pulitzer school supplies (og subscribers iykyk). Now I'm 24 and watching your recent vids make me sooo happy for you! You deserve all the joy and whimsical-ness of the world because your videos were like my entire girlhood 😌💗
who misses this format, and who is as chatty as her when talk about details of lifes , i finally found my match i can talk for hours , it sort of compulsive to say evry detail for me too😂❤
I totally would have been bothered by the zebra too, and good call with the drape - I had a silk bias cut drapey dress for my wedding and the alterations completely ruined it and I needed to get a different dress. Seeing you talk about the zebra brought a flashback to you talking about calibrating your eyeballs lolol!!
They were all beautiful! Thank you for showing us and explaining your thought process. I’m also engaged at the moment and this content could not have come are a better moment. You were the first UA-camr I ever watched. I will always love your videos
Seamstress here, it really depends on the type of lace you make the veil out of. The lace on that train is made of quite large lace appliques so cutting around them creates a more pronounced scallop shape. If you use a dainty lace, cutting around it will create a smaller scalloped shape. All lace needs to be cut around (or hemmed but they wouldnt do that in bridal) so it doesn't unravel so just look for a lace edge or lace applique veil.
I can't 😢 we all technically grew with you and seeing you grow immensely. it's like seeing a little sister growing (even though we are almost same age).
Blair! Beautiful dresses and I totally agree with all your reasons on why you didn't pick these. BTW I just wanted to share that I graduated with my bachelors yesterday! I went back to school in 2020 and you were a big reason why. The fact that you went to college as an older student and did so well made me feel confident I could too and I did! I graduated Magna Cum Laude! Thanks for always being a positive light and inspiration
honestly, i love this whole "life after influencing" concept, where it's so chill and it doesn't feel forced.
omg I totally agree. This content feels so natural and chill like I'm talking to one of my long distance friends
Agree! Its so relaxed and easy to watch.
Totally agree 🥰
I see that it's feeling forced over again. Wedding, marriages, is so sacred and should be about the love not the commercials you'll get with it.
I honestly agree with you when you talk about how you prefer long form content because so do I! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Same!! ❤
Seeing you try on wedding dresses feels like I’m watching a childhood friend try on dresses!! I’m so happy you’re sharing this with us 🥰
Oh lord, that 'zebra stripe' situation was no bueno! Those lines really needed to line up. You can absolutely feel confident in your decision to go in another direction. Like you said, it's too much money and too important to not have it be perfect!
Yes! It was so gorgeous and then I cringed when the back was shown. It made it look like a shein knock off
Girl I feel like I grew up with you and your sister Elle. I’m so happy you’re thriving and happy and back doing UA-cam videos.
The way I said "oh no the zebra mismatch won't do for Blair" like you're an old friend, because I remember you had a thing about symmetry as a child.
I was totally confused by zebra too , saying no way zebra will be Blair’s choice 😅
“I used to tie my ankles together with a hair tie and throw myself in the pool” 🤣🤣
I was shook… at the pool part 😂😂😂 she’s so funny!
It's so heartwarming to see you so happy and excited on UA-cam again. All the dresses are so pretty so I can't wait to eventually see "the one"
Aaahhh based on the runners-up, I KNOW the ONE has got to be breathtaking. Congrats! Thank you so much for sharing with us. This is so fun and cathartic watching you again
Love that youre making content. The veil - cathedral length. Scalloped. Lace edge. I feel describes it best
Thank you! Googling this now!
Yessss!! We love the rambles, I always feel like reels are so incomplete or disconnected. Here for all the long content ❤🎉
I literally grew up with you and Elle as my older internet sisters!! I’m screaming with excitement for you Blair. Thank you for taking us along with you. This is making my heart feel so nostalgic and warm knowing we are going to join you in your bride era 🥹🥹🩷 that lace dress with the off shoulder sleeves was GORGEOUS GORGEOUS on you.

OO girl wow getting married this is awesome, where have all the yrs. gone by
love seeing you active and happy!
Really enjoying this "adult" content from you that is much more relaxed and relatable. It's a nice evolution!
I loved hearing your thoughts about not altering a dress so much that changes the design intent. As a fellow interior designer, I sooo get that! I may not know a thing about fashion design, but I know better than to throw off the balance of someone's creation! So excited to see what you landed on--I know it'll be gorgeous!

Oh yes, and I’m from Cheshire, where you went to that high school prom way back when lol. That was a couple of grades after me :D
i am living for the return of your channel because it's so clear how much has changed in your life. you see so mature, settled, and sure of yourself. before you were so energizing to watch and now it's still exciting but it's also calming, which is (no offense) new lol.

The ballgown styles are STUNNING on you
Also, the draping not lining up on the top dress would have totally bothered me too, I get it
One last thing, check out Bella Belle shoes! Their bridal shoes are amazing
I'm a longform content girlie too.. so grateful for those of you that still create it!
You looked absolutely stunning in all the dresses, but that last one, HOLY SMOKES! I could see why you almost picked it!
I love that when you know it’s the dress you just know. I tried on so many and as soon as I stepped into MY dress I went ‘oh’ and just knew. You will look gorgeous because your smile and your aura will be glowing!
You truly look so happy between your wedding era and filming videos again as a hobby! 💕
Omg Blair you look seriously gorgeous in all of them! Can’t wait to see how stunning you look on your big day 💕
That’s the reason why I’m still here in UA-cam. I love long formats, look I’m in my 30’s and this is relax mommy time for me. So THANK YOU
Blair, I truly enjoyed this video. To see you now and who you have blossomed into is such a wonderful thing. 15 year old you would be SO proud of the woman that you are.

Yayyyy! You said this was gonna be like an instagram reel but so happy you made it into a video :)
All the dresses were pretty in their own way and they all looked so good on you! I cannot wait to see the one you picked 👰

You looked beautiful in every one of these dresses. The ones with a drapé looked particularly elegant and timeless. But the best one will definitely be the one you picked with your heart and forever lover in mind. Your excitement speaks volumes about your level of happiness. ❤
OG fans also love the long form content. I know it’s not popular but please know that you’ll always have viewers that want the chatty time!
Oh there were some beautiful gowns in there. It is so hard to choose isn’t it? You looked beautiful in all of them. Can’t wait to see the one you chose!
Honestly, so happy to see where you are now. Most wholesome thing of this year 🥰
what a difficult decision because you look so beautiful in every single gown
Excited to see how the final dress compares to the ones you felt were almost your dress!
These are such gorgeous dresses. Looking forward to seeing you on your big day. I bet you’ll have amazing video content too. You both are good looking but more importantly seem like such kind people - it’s lovely to see you shining and thriving!

Off topic - the room you’re in looks so calming.
That dress with the zebra stripe effect… GORGEOUS… but totally agree it would bother me, too. Can’t wait to see what you ended up with!!!
Cathedral veil is the style I think you're looking for!
Yay pleaseeee do an everyday makeup routine video!!
I agree with everything you said about each dress ❤ I’m excited to see the final choice once all is done and you are ready to share ❤
I am loving this. It feels like you're in your childhood friend's wedding since I have been watching your videos since 2008. I am glad you prefer the long form. I love UA-cam still..

The OMGHHKP just unlocked something in my brain!!

Glad you made the UA-cam video rather than a reel or short❤. Wish you all the happiness and joy, feels so good to see you enjoying the phase of your life you always desired❤

You look beautiful in all of them!! Dying for a makeup tutorial next! Possibly wedding trial ideas? :)
The last one was truly gorgeous on you. Hope you share THE one!
We are sooooo happy for you! So excited to see THE dress. I am sure you will look like a queen! ❤
I love that we've journeyed with you from your childhood bedroom to you now planning your wedding ❤ so excited for your future ❤ xx
The fact that you’re posting this often is making me SO HAPPY

Thank you so much for sharing with us!❤️ and thanks for the long form content for those of us who could listen to you talk for hours 🥰
The top of the first dress looks so good on you. You would look great in a mermaid style dress
I think the mermaid one looks gorgeous on you! Can’t wait to see what you chose.
Ahhhh I can’t wait to see the dress you picked, these all looked so good on you!! 🥰
ugh i’m loving this new era so much i missed you 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
gosh you have such a beautiful figure! you looked stunning in every single dress - that’s insane
I'm so excited you're showing us some of your wedding prep! 😍
You looked stunning in every single dress and the body was bodying miss ma’am! I can’t wait to see the dress you chose.
I love these long form videos! They are so nice to relax to!
Seamstress here, it really depends on the type of lace you make the veil out of. The lace on that train is made of quite large lace appliques so cutting around them creates a more pronounced scallop shape. If you use a dainty lace, cutting around it will create a smaller scalloped shape. All lace needs to be cut around (or hemmed but they wouldnt do that in bridal) so it doesn't unravel so just look for a lace edge or lace applique veil.
They all look amazing on you!! Congrats Blair!
The last dress is absolutely stunning on you!
Love that you’re back doing videos! Thank you for sharing! Been watching you since you started UA-cam! 🩷
I can't 😢 we all technically grew with you and seeing you grow immensely. it's like seeing a little sister growing (even though we are almost same age).
10:16 I love the clean look. I hope your final dress is similar! Looks amazing on you.
Blair! Beautiful dresses and I totally agree with all your reasons on why you didn't pick these. BTW I just wanted to share that I graduated with my bachelors yesterday! I went back to school in 2020 and you were a big reason why. The fact that you went to college as an older student and did so well made me feel confident I could too and I did! I graduated Magna Cum Laude! Thanks for always being a positive light and inspiration
