So today was my first fitting - I will post pics when my MOH sends them to me.
My mom, sister and cousin came with me to Bridal Elegance. Phyllis was AWESOME - she was with us for an hour. She helped me pick out the right bra and bustle and she was so patient with me ( i am the worst when it comes to making decisions ). My dress looked great! I also bought a faux fur to go over it!
My mom on the other hand, was a giant poop. She CANNOT hide her feelings and it is like okay can you at least PRETEND to like my dress? My dress is silk - and silk wrinkles get over it. So the whole time instead of thinking 'wow this is my baby girl in a wedding gown' she is SMOOTHING out the wrinkles in the front of the dress looking like 'tsk, tsk' - even when i was asking opinions on the bustle she just kind of nodded bc she was so engrossed in the freeken wrinkles. Then she complains to everyone about how I am mean to her bc I said something about her hating the dress!
anywho - i will post pics soon
i took an awesome picture where i am hanging myself by the fur from teh chandelier he he i hope it comes out good!
**************************************** Pictures! PLEASE DON'T QUOTE I AM TAKING THESE DOWN!
Phyllis fixing my dress and my mom secretly hating it - look how long my hair got!
Partially bustled - i love my bustle!!! I thought i wanted like a one point bustle but the way she did it - i fell in love!
Trying to walk without killing myself LOL
the wrap i bought!
Trying to hang myself with the wrap as my mother tries to iron out my dress with her bare hands
dont look at my face - i never wear makeup to fitting bc i am scared i am going to get it on the dress lol
the whole dress- most of the lace is folded under bc i am so short but it will be moved up AFTER the hem is finished

Congrats, you look great in the gown. FYI, Phylis ordered and altered my sister in laws dress, and all our brides maid dresses last year. She did a great job and was very nice. I may go back to her... although I am torn, I really like Bridal Suites of Huntington as well!
