I love your dress so much I might hate you a little for it. Ok not really. But kinda.

I'll play again! I bought the veil that is in the picture but now I want a cathedral length veil.

@Sugargirl1019 Completely swooning over your dress and veil!

@lolo883 @eg72‌

Thank you ladies! I'm crazy over the front piece under the bust (its what FI liked on every dress we saw online) and the corset back! It's an Essence of Australia. I thought I was gonna get a Maggie, but my sister pulled it off the rack randomly and said, this has what your FI likes - you should try it. And of course I cried once I held the bodice up on me. Also my custom veil is pretty fantastic it's huge! But I love it!

@eg72 your dress is beautifull. I've said it before ‌probably. But those cap sleeves are adorable!

@Sugargirl1019 Thanks! I'm having them altered to sit off the shoulder a little. It's a a winter wedding so some sort of sleeves were a must. I originally wanted long lace sleeves. When I mentioned this to FI he was very adament that he wouldn't like it because it reminds him of an old lady. I didn't even try a dress on with those sleeves! Haha!

Since I'm in my photobucket account for pet pictures, I will play too :



back - though I loved that veil, I could not justify it

@eg72 no, that's not you in those pics. You're Miranda Lambert and I refuse to believe otherwise. :-p

@lolo883 You're right. That's just some girl I get to model my clothes

ETA: I also refuse to believe that you aren't really JLaw

That's good, because I am really JLaw.

I just have to say I'm kind of jealous of all you ladies who have trains on your dresses!

I really would like to post because I am an AW and because I like bragging on my mom, but I can't post any pictures because no pictures exist yet. My mom is making my dress, because she's classy and baller.

That's awesome! What a treasured piece that will be.

@kaitlynmichelle‌ I love the lace on your train a lot!

@Sugargirl1019‌ Thanks! I didn't want a train until I saw how awesome this one was.

Okay, just had my first fitting and thank the ever loving lord that I don't have to have the dress in my possession any more! In the 1+ week since I picked it up, I managed to get it caught in the zipper and spill on it (read: somehow throw an entire cup of coffee across the room when I tripped walking into my office this morning, which splattered all over the garment bag). I'm not to be trusted with it.

Anyway. I love it. I love it BIG. The only alteration it needs is to bring the waist line up a smidgen to create more blousing (?? not sure that's an actual word). God bless spanx & these brilliant little stick on chicken cutlet boobie things. 

*and damn, I look rough! Ignore the no makeup & nasty hair look I'm sporting*

@SmileDamnit, Your dress is beautiful! If you bring up the waist line, is that going to create a crotch flower? It looks dangerously close as it is. But maybe it's the picture?

Ha! It is dangerously close! It's maybe an eighth of an inch so hopefully I won't have flower crotch. And the pictures/lighting, for some reason, really do make that stand out. It's not nearly as flower crotchy in person. They are little individual shear beady things that are far more subtle.

Thanks! Is it sad that that's one of the things that sold me on it? Some people like trains...some like veils...I like booty accentuation

Same with my dress! It's mermaid style so it accentuates the badonk anyway but the sash on it ties into the best bow ever. I didn't think I liked ass bows, but turned around and was like "hot damn, my bootie looks like a present."

Love it! Me thinks our boys will be pleased with our choices
