lol - i wish i had the time to do that, it actually sounds kind of fun! i'm already worried that i will have to rush to get alterations done. unless you can get them done for me - i think we might be the same size! whatcha think?

seriously - i am sooo scared to try the dress on. i didn't like how the sample fit, but i keep telling myself it is because it wasn't my size, which is true. i am just hoping "my" dress looks better! you guys, i am sooo nervous!

I was the exact same way.. Even when I did my first dress fitting I thought "God I hope I didn't choose the wrong dress" because it was still too big on me.

Ann when you put in on all those wonderful feeling will be back and you will be reminded why you choose that dress to begin with. Have you looked around MN for a place to get it altered yet?

I know, I noticed that this morning. At first I freaked out, but I am trying to be excited instead. lol The problem is I have totally put the wedding on the back burner since we were focused on moving. I didn't want to order anything, or start any projects while we were moving. And now I want to focus on getting the new house all set up. I haven't even contacted Marilu at Dreams about my WD - I hope she remembers me!

As for the dress, I am totally hoping I still love it. And really, it doesn't matter, after what I paid for it, I WILL love it, and I WILL wear it!

When I was at my friend's dress fitting this past weekend (her wedding is May 5) I asked them if they alter dresses that weren't purchased there. They didn't, but they gave me the name of someone who does their alterations. I am going to call her.
