StarryT, I'm sorry you are experiencing all of this 5 days before your wedding. All you can do is smile and remember the last sentence is the most Important No matter whats wrong with the dress, the ring, and the people who will and won't be attending you are marrying the man you love and you have a beautiful daughter to share it with. If you don't laugh you will be miserable, I'm glad you were able to vent. Please laugh, smile, and enjoy your wedding! I'll be waiting for the reviews and pitcures!
