April 2013 Weddings

I won a dress!

My wp had a FB giveaway for a Casablanca wedding gown. She just emailed me, and I won!
Woohoo!!

I'm a little worried though...
1) I might not like it after I try it on. What then?
2) She said it can be altered from 0-12+.  Does the 12+ mean that it can be ordered/altered into sizes larger than 12? I wear a size 13 jeans and even that is a little tight/shows some buttcrack when I bend over. 
I will be so embarassed if the dress I won can't even be made into my size.
And even MORE embarrased if I can't fit into it when I go to try it on.

Re: I won a dress!

  • Did you win it through a bridal store?  Most stores carry sample sizes..I'm a size 10 and only a handful of the samples zipped/closed completely.  The sooner you realize wedding dresses are sized differently, the better you will feel!  

    Don't know about the sizing of Casablance gowns, either, so I don't know what 12+ means.  I think your best bet is to ask the person(s) you won the gown from these questions.

  • Congrats that's awesome. If you don't end up liking it, you can sell it and use the money for your own dress.

  • How fun! I agree with the plan of selling it & using the money for something else if you don't like it. either way, it's still really exciting to win something :)
