    Your dress is gorgeous!! Even though they're just phone pictures- you look beautiful! Just think how amazing the pro shots will be!

    Glad you've found a good seamstress too. Thanks for sharing your pics!

    Oh, I kind of sort of left out the best part. Alterations? Going to be less than $100. I was so stoked.

    Awesome!  Hooray for on-budget alterations!  I love your dress, I almost bought one that was very similar only strapless.  I love the sleeves!

    That was my one requirement for my dress, Sessions! I dress pretty modestly 99.9% of the time and I didn't look like myself in a strapless dress. Every single one I tried on I liked from like my rib cage down. I just wanted sleeves. Mormon temple dress FTW.

    Oh really mrsbrist??? That's so funny. We wanted that day since it's a holiday weekend (columbus day) most people have off from work on that monday. We have so many people traveling from Puerto Rico, Florida, and Maryland. Besides I couldnt stand the thought of being engaged for longer than a year and since we got engaged in October it worked perfectly haha

    Yes. :) We got engaged in January and FI was thinking October. I liked the idea of a fall wedding, but when presented it to our families (over a month after we got engaged, but that's a different story for a different time), they thought we were insane for wanting to get married during the school year. My family was all for this summer and his family really wanted us to wait until we were done with school (fat chance...I'm going to grad school and FI still has another 2 years). So, we ignored his family and went with what my family was saying.

    I still scan the Oct '11 board because I lurked there before we set the date. And I'm sure when October 8th rolls around FI and I will joke about it or something. :)
