Went to Lillette's and had my second fitting tonight - I have to give FH credit he was more than willing to brave the snowstorm to make me a very happy bride.
I got one last try on that will be March 4th (5 days prior to the wedding) and all will be done then.. we took care of the bustle and also she let the sides out the 1/4 inch on each side so the back corset area lays better and also fixed the chest area (took it in ..) so the gown looks more fitted for me.
She altered one of the sleeves so we can see how it will look and also took care of the hem now that I had my slip and still has to sew my gown tag in that I had made up.
It looks sooo good on me I was so very happy I wanted to just prance around the shop and just wear it home

Her name is Maia and she's new to Lillette's but has lots of experience as a seamstress. I was amazed at how she got a lot done in only one week since I was there last week Tuesday for my first fitting appointment.
I can't wait- I am so sure FH is going to be amazed when he sees me!
I do feel like a princess in that gown- I love it and it was the first gown I tried on when I went gown shopping.. I kept going back to it and I knew right away it was 'the one'
And to all the ladies thank you so very much for all the compliments! As a heavy set woman I am very self-conscious about myself and this just really lifted my spirits.
