So today was my first dress fitting. Aside from a minor freak-out when I was told my dress might wrinkle in middle because it had no boning in it (sample was strapelss so I ordered the dress thinking it was that way and turns out comes with STRAPS and without them, needs additional -cue more expensive- alterations to add boning to sides so it stays up) everything went fine. They will add the boning and though we still have to pay for it, I would rather do that then argue and have them do something to my dress.
After many long battles with veiling, I think I have settled on the one in the pic. It's simple, takes nothign away from the dress and it stays out of my face! That was the most important requirement. I am really unhappy with how lopsided I look, but cest la vie. One day I too shall be symmetrical!
What do you girls think of the whole look? The piece that you can't see too well on the side there, is the one ym MOH gave me. My hair WILL be style don the big day It wwas in a tiny ponytail today and it poofed from so many veils being put on and taken off.

Aww thanks summer. Wow I look all big and bold there LMAO HAVE to learn how to pose! OMG someone give me lessons! AND OMG! I must share my birdcage veil story... My headpiece got STUCK in the veiling of the cage. O M G!!! I ahd to discreetly DESTROY the bridcage veil netting to rescue my piece....That sealed the deal for me. NO BIRDCAGE for this chickie! Thank god there were no cameras in there.... But in my defense, the netting was already pretty demolished-looks like alot of frustrated brides ahve tried on that particular veil.
You look beautiful in your dress. I especially love the veil.

Thanks guys. Glad the veil drama is mostly over. SUCH a hard time deciding what kind. Its between this one and one other one. looks JUST like this except it has scattered motiffs and pearls as well throughit it thatemulate my haircomb design. It is gorgeous. Only thing I didn't love was that it didn't have the scallope edging. Have to decide whetehr or not scalloping really looks better or not.
You look beautiful!
