HELP!!Stressing over my dress and re-posting because thats how much I am stressing

OK-so as I posted the other day, I bought my dress and absolutely LOVE IT!! But I ordered it not as it is, but with many alterations--such as the bottom is to be made entirely different, full with 1inch box pleats and gatherings on the side(not like any dress that designer actually makes). The woman at Bridal Reflections pinned it up for me and it was exactly the way I want it. But now I am stressing that when she explains to the designer how to make the bottom it wont translate exactly as it was. I saw what she wrote down on my receipt and Im nervous that the designer wont 'get' exactly what she means and my dress wont be as it was the other day. This is seriously stressing me and keeping me up....I dont want to call and look like a crazy bride--what do you guys think?? Is this just my typical anxiety-prone obsessing or am I likely to not get just what I described. Has anyone had experience with ordering their dress and not having it as described?? PLEASE HELP--this is my first bridal stress and I cant feel like this until August when my dress comes in!!

Well it's just my opinion, but if you pay all of the $$$ for it, you deserve to ask as many and be reassured TONS of times if you so desire. I would suck it up and talk to the salon about your worries so that you can put that thought to rest and move onto another area. It's totally understandable though, and I bet your gown will be perfect, just like your vows!

Maybe make a drawing of it yourself and write a few words about what you want. Fax it to the designer or to the shop for the designer.
