I went to Lillette's today..........

Original post by Lsorrent

and ordered my gown!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok well sort of ordered it. We signed the paperwork and put down the deposit, and they're putting the gown on hold. I'm not getting measured for it, however, until June or July. I need to find shoes first.

Since the dress has so much detailing on it, and Eve of Milady hand-makes all of the gowns, they're going to make the gown to fit my height and measurements. Which is especially important since I'm only 4'11' So now it's off to find shoes. I went to Sandy's in Massapequa and found both shoes 1 and 4 from my poll the other day. My mom preferred shoe 4 actually.

So once I find my shoes, I'll go back, get measured, and they'll officially put the order through

The only downside however, is since the gown is hand-made, it won't come in until March!!!!! So that's almost a year without being able to see it!!!!!!!

But overall, I'm just so excited! That's one more thing off the checklist

ETA: pics in album if you haven't seen them yet

I'm going through the exact same thing at Lillette's! Just ordered my shoes after finding the perfect color (don't know if you remember my color drama). My shoes are not coming for another 2-3 wks, so I have to be patient.

I can't wait though! So exciting right?

No it's not. I tried the gown on at Bridal Reflections in Massapequa, but I didn't want to buy there (wasn't happy with my experience). I wanted to buy from Lillette's, but they actually don't even have a sample of the gown there. But Geri is ordering the gown for me, because they do carry Eve of Milady gowns. So unfortunately, I can't take a pic in it at Lillette's until it comes in.....next year!

I have to go back in August to get measured from Hem to Hollow whatever that means but you'll be in great hands Geri is wonderful & you look great in your dress, the time is going to go by so quick and before you know it
