check and drama
So after a lot of unecessary drama I'm glad to say that the bridesmaid dresses are picked and 2 of the girls ordered theirs.
So my sister is my matron of honor she is not a thin girls so she has been giving me a hard time about dresses saying she wants something that flatters her. The one day we went for her to try on dresses all the places we went to had limited plus size dresses and I didn't really like any of them plus i had already fell in love with a dress for the other girls. So I told her okay if you want a different dress you need to do the leg work and find one in the same material same color. The dress I picked is a-line it can flatter any shape but since she is so big she only feels semi comfortable in an empire. That is fine but all the designers right now don't seem to offer empire dress in silk shantung material. So she never did the leg work I ended up having to. So when I called a few places and told them the dress I like I was informed that it got discontinued 2 weeks ago and if I was going to get my dresses in time for fitting I have a 3 week window to get everyone to order. So at this point I am pissed off and stressed. So I told my sister/ matron of honor the whole situation and that I am picking a dress this Saturday and that is it. I am so done playing games and just need to get this done, plus I really loved the other dress so pissed I that because of her I had to wait and it got discontinued (also the salons fault for not notifying us like good salons usually do.) So she had a fit over that and dropped out of the wedding party. This is my own sister too. So dealing with all of the bs the past few days just made me wish more and more that I just eloped lol. Thankfully I have really great girls in my bridal party and one of them made an appointment looks up other alternative dresses and surprised me by having my maid of honor surprise me at the salon. We tried on a few and found 2 that were very similar. My maid of honor was checking out the make of the dress and she found pockets and we were sold. Picked a dress was able to get it in the same material and color and it was cheaper. So even though it was an utter disaster getting to check this off I think we ended up with the better dress in the end. So glad to be done with that. http://www.venusbridal.com/search?sno=1432
This is the dress except we are paying 20 extra for silk shantung, it will be in cobalt, the flower is being removed and they are adding straps.
