My 1st Dress Fitting :)

So tonight was my first fitting.. I brought some family members with me this time around ( i originally bought my dress by myself LOL)
Here it is in all its glory..


the only thing I was huffy about was the cost of alterations but I have to get it done .. just more unexpected costs.. and its getting closer to the wedding.. and I feel like we have no money at all.. I decided to not do a bustle.. I really didn't need it and saved some $$$





theres my target shoes :) they are so comfy : )

Pretty! Love the veil. I tried one of those on but with my headpiece, it got tangled and OYE! NOT good...lol so going with more tarditional veil. I know what you mean about alterations. Mine are costing a flipping 365 bucks and the cap is supposed to be 350! ***!

Once the top is better fitted, it will look great! I think the birdcage veil and shoes work REALLY well!!!

they were like $190 and my jaw dropped.. it was a very unexpected ... considering the dress was like so inexpensive.. i rather go there than a tailor at some store where I risk it getting dirty or something..

i was going to dthe bustle.. but I really can't afford to drop another $100
Yeah the fishnet can get tangley you have to be sooo careful with it..

I love it, it's so pretty and sleek. Reminds me of the retro glam days of the 20's and I love that. Classic!!!!!
