Alterations Part One & 100th post


We are back on board ladies with me IN LOVE with my dress again. You may remember this post about me feeling awful about it but.....
After seeing it pinned, nipped, and tucked....all i can say is BEAUTIFUL!!!

Our seamstress who we were referred to by a family friend really knows what she is talking about and her work speaks for itself. I am so excited and she is going to make me a lace bolero!! WAHOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
On another note, she works out of her home and let me say it was a bit of a mad house. If she did not come highly recommended and i couldn't really see her amazing craftsmanship and expertise i might have run out of there screaming. Think animal shelter meets an orphanage. (hahah) It still scares me a bit but her work was impeccable.

Alteration break down....

*Bustle (3 point) which i think looks like i have a second ass but my bridesmaids loved it so....
*Changing the neckline to a sweetheart neckline
*Hemming
*Bolero being made
*Taking the bust in tight so i don't have to wear a bra
and viola there you have it!

Ps This is my 100th post and how appropriate that it is about me loving my wedding gown!!! Thank you everyone for all the support, followers, avid readers, and sweet comments. This has been so fun and my sanity for the past year. Thank you!
