Alright WELL... I don't have pictures. The cleaner kept my mothers dress much longer than they originally quoted they would need to clean it, and my sister has had a TON of problems with them. She did have the girls trying on the pattern dresses and they looked AMAZING, but they were only pattern dresses, not the actual thing so we didn't take photos this time around, next time when its the actual dresses they are trying on
We also measured the little ones so she could start working on the Flower Girl dresses.
We did make some progress on mine though. Its now cut down (minus sleeves/highneck) and we settled on my mid to lower back for where the backless would fall. Didn't want it to go too low or the sash she's putting on would be weird. We also changed our mind on the strapless thing after falling in love with a picture that we found online. Decided it would make me feel more comfortable than taping myself into a strapless/backless dress hahaha so it will have subtle straps like this:
She also had the black crinoline out and we played with how pouffy we were going to make the skirt, as it hs more of a ballgown style skirt than the one in the picture.
So at the end of the day, despite not getting photos of the next step I AM feeling better about how things are going having seen progress
