UPDATE: I'm going back again next week to work on some more details..
- the back will have satin covered buttons
- she has to let the sleeves out under my armpits b/c i couldn't raise my arms
- she'll complete the sash (bringing it up a little higher)
- she'll be will complete the bustle

I think that's it....

NOT MY VEIL...just for 'show'

Figuring out how to bustle...and bustle the sash!

Thanks for your concerns ladies!

Dad's going for a CT scan this evening (5:30) - b/c the sonogram showed nothing yesterday. However, they gave him a high dose of pain killers, so that's at least alleviating some of his pain.

I'll keep you all posted.

The dress fitting is this evening around 6:30 (after work.)

LOVE IT! The top is just gorgeous. The boat neck really flatters your shoulders and neck.

I am also getting my dress made, so high five for that!!

I so frickin' love it...it's so flattering...i felt really skinny (well skinny enough...hehehe)...I was VERY COMFORTABLE in it....it's a lot more 'younger' than the first dress....

I can't wait for the veil!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Dress Fitting #2 Tonight (with new dress!)...UPDATED WITH PICS!!!!

OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First off... You look so much more comfortable in it...

Secondly... I love the raw edge scalloping of the lace... That makes it look real 'expensive', b/c that is expensive to do!

Third... You just look great!

I am so glad you are happy!
