Re: Hey, a New Mom is joining!
Hi---Another new mom. My daughter will be so happy that I have a place of my own to go to. I think I have been as addicted to reading these boards as she has. I look forward to chating and sharing with you other moms.

Welcome. What fun that we are getting more mothers here. Is Kelly's wedding going to be on Long Island? I would love to hear more. Mary

Re: Hey, a New Mom is joining!
The dress came in very long, a different proportion, not the same silhouette, diff. shading, etc. The owner at Filly's couldn't have handled it better. I actually wanted to just take the sample and she insisted making a fresh one. She said if they have to redo it 5 times she would have them do it. I will post the black one. The things I am making are for my son's wedding. I am making menus, programs and addressing the placecards. I am probably doing the velum over the cardstock type of look, with a purple bow. Welcome to Kelly's mom!
I loved it on you then and I love it on you now. It's beautiful. I'm happy to hear that the owner was so conscientious about getting you the right fit. That's a reason why some businesses are successful and others are not. I think it's great you are helping with your son's wedding so much. I hope you'll send me pictures of everything you make. I hope you have help tying ribbons. It's hard on the fingers. Have a great day everyone. Mary

Re: Hey, a New Mom is joining!
Thanks for the welcome ladies. Kelly's reception is at the George Washington Manor. GroomMom, you look beautiful in that dress, I could never have my arms showing in a strapless gown, wish I could. I just started looking and haven't found anything yet. What a young looking MOG you are!!!!

Re: Hey, a New Mom is joining!
Wow, what a beautiful dress. I just took my dress over to a tailor today. It needs to be shortened ( I'm only 5' tall) and the straps need to be fixed as well. Rachel's bridesmaids are wearing a dark periwinkle gown and my gown is a light periwinkle. My matching shoes have a low heal. Just can't wear those high ones. They hurt too much.
