I had what we'll call my second fitting on Friday and things went better than the last time. The dress zipped (which it didn't previously) but I still need to loose a few more before the big day. I'm going Saturday to try it on with different undergarments and my final fitting is the 25th (eeek!). Here's some pics to share:
Thanks girls! They weren't able to get the mark out from the sewing machine foot but only I and the seamstress can see it and it doesn't show in pics so I can live with that. The gown hasn't be steamed so we aren't sure about the other spots but they only show when the light hits it right so I'm okay living with it either way.
It looks amazing!! Where did you get it altered? You're horrible dress experience was wtih La Belle Boutique in JC, right? I live in Jersey City, so I was thinking of just going to look there, but hearing your story steered me completely away. Thanks for the heads up!

It was with La Belle- the experience could have been worse, but it could have been 100% better as well. Glad to hear it helped!
If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together
there is something you must always remember.
You are braver than you believe,
stronger than you seem
and smarter than you think.
Even if we're apart i'll always be with you.

The dress looks beautiful! I'm glad this second fitting was so much better than the first.
