Since I ordered the dress in October,  I've lost a dress size and my dress swam on me last night. My goal weight would put me down another dress size. So here is the question.

My wedding is in mid-September. My next fitting is july 20th. The seamstress said she would not change the alterations quote she gave me for any weight that I lose between now and that fitting; however if I continue to lose significant weight after that fitting, she would have to readjust the price, since it would mean a second round of physical alterations for her (right now the dress is just pinned). 

In your collective experience, do you think it's best that I push this next appointment out another 2 weeks? It won't be an issue with timing in terms of the seamstress being able to physically complete the alterations (will call to confirm this today), and it would give me some more time. I figure by August, I'll be in maintenance mode with my diet and there won't be any drastic alterations needed. 

Can anyone think of any reasons I shouldn't push it out two weeks, as long as the shop confirms it won't be an issue in terms of their workload?

Thanks in advance everyone

Thanks!

I don't think I'm ready to buy my dress. Since I'm on a budget I noticed David Bridal is having a big sale and some dresses are as low $99.00. Does anyone know if they have more sales though out the year or should I take advantage of the one this weekend.  

The dress is Caldera by Blue by Enzoani - this is it on with the straight across neckline:

And this is it with me holding it into a sweetheart:

Experiences with such an alteration? Thoughts/opinions on which looks better? Thanks!

I've looked at a few Carter's & Macy's dresses but none of them are really what I'm looking for. I really like the look of this: https://www.etsy.com/listing/186489384/rush-order-for-mary-hamilton?ref=related-1  

and this:

The pricing is also much more reasonable I'm just a little nervous about the ship from china/online ordering aspect. I don't want to spend the money and wind up with these dresses that look completely different than expected. Has anyone had any experience with this for flower girl dresses? Anyone you recommend/don't recommend?

If you know of any retail stores that have something similar I'd also be interested in those suggestions! 

Thanks!

Does anyone know what is the usual sample size for wedding dresses at Kleinfield? I wear sizes from zero to two. 

Or is there any other wedding dress designers with similar style than Pina that might be also available in Europe? (I would be able to travel here all the time) Or in a online botique?

Thank you everyone for your help!

I'm not sure what to do in the situation I found myself in: I let my bridesmaids pick their own dresses with the following guided criteria (David's Bridal, plum, knee length, chiffon). I made sure that there were a number of attractive choices available, but of my 6 bridesmaids, 5 of them bought the same dress!! They all have different body types and they all somehow liked the same dress. Which is fine, except that 1 of my bridesmaids chose a different style dress. And all David's Bridal attire is final sale! I had got them in contact with each other in hopes of preventing something like this and took a mostly hands off approach, but it happened and I don't know what to do. I just don't want my one bridesmaid (not maid of honor) to be wearing a different dress and have it look like a mistake or to have her feel uncomfortable. Is there anything I can do to remedy the situation? Make sure they all have radically different hairstyles?? Anything? Sigh...
