June/July Brides CHECK IN!

Mine is not in yet, but I only ordered it in Feburary. I was given a mid-May arrival date and start my fittings in late May.

I would call your shop and set up your fitting appts. also, if you haven't already done so. I didn't realize I should do this in advance until I called the shop with another question and was told it's best to set them up now.

Mine isn't in yet either. They told me late-April, but I only ordered it in January. Can't wait! Having the dress fitted is one of the few things I have left to do! Woohoooo!

Okay I feel better. I ordered my dress in October and they told me mid April, but I was hoping earlier.

FH is waiting on me to finish my addresses in order to start the envelopes. We have everything else though...
