My dress is in!

5 months early... Holy cow! I wasn't planning on going back in Minnesota to try it on until May! I don't think I can wait that long, though

Anyone else have recent arrivals?

Nooo...but I did finally finish the repairs to mine. It was a sample and was missing a bunch of beading that the seamstress didn't replace. Huge weight off my chest.

Yay!  How fun  

I wish!  Mine is supposed to come in in February and I'm actually stopping over tomorrow to see if they can get an estimate of when so that my mom can make plans to come up from NC to see it.  I can't wait!  I ordered it with a different neckline than the sample I tried on so I'm anxious to see how it turned out.

I love both of your dresses! Opalsky, congrats at getting that Kenneth Pool sample... Sounds like it was a steal

I was just excited that my dress came in on time, seeing as I ordered it just 5 months before the wedding. It came in about 3 1/2 weeks before the wedding, so I had just the right amount of time to get fitted.

Btw, I love love love everything about your dress. It looks perfect on you!

Our cake toppers arrived today---and while I think they are super cute, I had no idea how tiny they'd be IRL. I'm a bit bummed.

My first dress fitting is this Friday. I'm scared shitless.

What do they look like, Rach?

gg, I find it ridiculous that dresses take that long to be made. I ordered mine at the end of October, and it wasn't supposed to be in until May!

I agree, Poli. I had heard from other Pronovias brides to expect it to take up to 8-10 months, but I didn't have that amount of time. I'm glad that Pronovias worked it out for me.

No .  I called, though, and the girl said "Hmmm... It shipped on Dec 12th, so I'm not sure where it is.  I'll have Lisa call you back."  Lisa hasn't called me yet, though.  Bitch.

Yup, they called me the Saturday before Christmas! I couldn't get in for a week or so. It's now hanging in the spare closet! I have PIB. I made FI reorganize his camping stuff so I could put my dress there.

Oh, and I ordered the dress in October, and it took about 9 weeks to get here. I was originally told April. I expected maybe February.

I can't find the pic on my desktop---but it's my avatar pic. They are tiny wooden Rach and Rich's!

Still waiting for mine.  It's supposed to be in by the beginning of this month at the latest.  In fact, I think I'll give them a call tomorrow and see where it's at.

Poli- just want to say you look stunning in that dress! I love it!

Thank you!
