I am afraid that when I pick it up, I will need to try it on every morning, every night when i get home from work and then again before I go to bed. That is, if I can take it off at all! Hhahahahaaa.

I thought I would be the same way, but I didn't try it on at all. I took it in for alterations a few days after I got it, and she kept it there for me till I came back for a fitting and she had it till about a week before the wedding, I had my final fitting then took it to the store to be steamed and picked it up the day before we left. That was the best way for me. No chance DH would see it and no chance I would try it on and rip it or spill something on it, both nightmares of mine.

I can't wait to post mine. Everybody looks so wonderful!!! My mom took pics of me & my sister last weekend, but I accidentally left my camera there. Hoping to get it back today or tomorrow & post here!

Heidi, you big tease!

[jajajaja]

Carly, I commented on your dress when you first posted it here, but wow- it's so beautiful. Love the veil with it too! I can't wait to see your wedding either.

 

Heidi, have you posted your dress here? Gosh, I've had to have viewed 1000's of them. I can't wait to see you in it so hurry up and get your camera back.

Thanks, Rachel! I can't wait to get it either. It won't be real until I OWN it. My sis and I are going to make the veil, we are replicating the look of that one (but with no sparkles), so I hope it turns out well!

 

I can't remmber Heidi's either, so I really hope she remmbers her camera!

 

Wasn't there a photobucket account created for BDW? It would be nice if we could all post our pics in one place and not have to weed thru the comments...
