Original post by DNicholes

So excited!!!!!

I have shoes, bra, skirt, & jewelry....that's everything right?

UPDATE: Welllll I almost fainted at my fitting tonight....here's the thing...I'm slightly claustrophobic, I put on my bra which is one of those full fitting..push your boobs up kind of one (S uck ya in) THEN I put on my skirt which also zips up to under your boobs rather tightly & on top of that I have a corset back...(Plus I was in a rather small room) SO I put it all on and the next thing you know, I break out into a horrible sweat, I get a little light headed...meanwhile my Mom thinks I'm kidding around thinking I'm making a joke!! TOTALLY WASN'T!!!!!!! they had to undo my corset so fast and poor Carmella was like 'please don't faint...I don't want my brides to faint' LOL....needless to say, I am not wearing a bra but she is going to put cups in! CAN YOU BELIEVE I GOT CLAUSTROPHOBIC IN MY DRESS!!!! (who does that?!!)

Anywho here are two pics of me in my dress....I'm making the neckline into sweetheart which is why it's cut up like that...I don't like my jewelry either...UGH back to square one with DOJ again!

Devon you look beautiful!!! I think you should go with a more simple necklace...something short and skinny for you dress. There is so much going on with your dress that the necklace you are wearing seems to over power you a little bit



I know I can't find anything I like....I wanted something with smaller pearls but maybe I should not do pearls altogethert?

hey date twin!
I have a bra that's too tight at home... I don't wear it, but I never thought it could make someone pass out

oh yeah, I can TOTALLY see someone getting clustrophobic in those giant poofs we call gowns... I don't even have clustrophobia, and I sense it myself! While I LOVE the way gowns look, I just think they are the most rediculous get-ups to try to walk around in

I agree, almost passing out does likely require a different bra

your gown does look beautiful though!

The Sweetheart neckline worked out perfect- looks like the dress should have been like that from the beginning!

It looks fantastic on you and I think what you are doing w/o the bra and putting cups in is the right thing- b/c in the pic you look great!

So, all in all-- perfect!! Congrats!!

As for the DOJ-- that's OK to change your mind, it happens. I like the earrings but I don' t know if I'm feeling the necklace.

I guess just look around and see if you find anything else you love.

you look fantastic in the dress! It really looks like it should have been a sweetheart line to begin with too. so that will be great. But the dress is just beautful!

what about doing a floating pearl necklace? just something that allows them to kind of dance around your neck. something like these maybe? Floating Pearl Necklace

Or you could do something like this: Pearl and Swarovski Necklace

Here's another floating pearl necklace: Floater

I'm sure you'll find one that works!
