August 2010 Brides!

[hunniebee724]

My surprise bridal shower was today! I totally wasn't expecting it. I told my fiance to tell my mom and MOH not to throw me one because of the expense of the cruise, but they did it anyway, and I'm very grateful. I was especially happy to see family members and friends who cannot make it to the wedding, because I don't see them often. My great-aunt told me the story of how my grandmother introduced her to my great-uncle, and how they would've been married 63 years last week (he passed away last year). They had such a cute love story....she said she hopes we have as many years of love as they did. 38 days to go!

Wedding Dress Drama with a happy ending:

 

When I bought my dress back in January it was a discontinued style so I bought the dress they had in store. It was a size 10 which in a street dress would be perfect, but in the wedding dress world a 10 would never fit. However, this one fit PERFECTLY in so many ways. The length was great (no hemming needed), the waist was flattering and made me look tiny :-), However, the chests area was WAY too tight. I was blessed with boobs so I knew this would probably happen. They said that they would let it out about 2 inches to make it fit perfectly. I went back last week to pick it up and try it on. Sadly, when I put it on, it was still way too tight on top. They swore that it had been let out, but I didn't believe them. So they said they would fix it. I went back yesterday to try it on again, and now it's too big!! Luckily it will only take a little work to make it perfect. And they aren't charging me for any of the alterations past the original work.
