Seriously, as if this week could get any worse I literally just got home after fainting in the middle of my first dress fitting. I can't even put into words how disappointed, embarrassed and upset I am.
I haven't been feeling very well the last couple of days and it's almost that time of the month. I should have canceled the appointment but I was nervous about the timeline and I hadn't seen my dress since January so I just didn't want to miss it. Well big mistake.... half-way through the pinning and fitting, I got dizzy sat down on a chair and passed out. I think standing under spot lights in my heavy dress just put me over the edge. (I also think I may have been a bit dehydrated since all I had was coffee this morning.)
I woke up surrounded by people asking me if I was okay which only made things worse. I got up after a bit and tried to continue the fitting but it just didn't work, I kept getting dizzy. Apparently this happens rather often according to the employees at the bridal salon.
So anyway, I left embarrassed, feeling so incredibly sick and disappointed. I didn't even get to try on my dress with my veil to see how they looked together or get a good picture. I also feel like the fitting wasn't complete so I'm nervous.
My next fitting isn't until October 4th (I'm an October 27th bride.) I'm praying that goes better.
On the bright side, my dress looks beautiiful, I just wish I could shake this feeling of disappointment and embarrament. Ugh. :-( I can't believe this happened!
