My wedding dress was ready for the 1st fitting after all the alterations, so mom, Sally, Claire, and I went up to Monicas to see the dress. I was so nervous to see it because I had not since I had given it to her. I didn't know if after all the alterations and cutting up my mother's wedding dress it was even going to look like I had pictured it. My stomach was in knots.
The minute I laid my eyes on it I was in-love with my wedding dress. I couldn't believe how beautiful it was, just like I had pictured it all these months. The alterations were done perfectly and it truly was MY dress!!! I tried it on for the fitting and everything fit amazingly!
She pinned up the skirt where she is going to put in the bussle while we were there. There are still a few pieces of lace she has to put back on the top of the dress as well, but everything else is completely done!!
I can't wait to go back for the final fitting and see exactly how it will look on my wedding day. I can now breathe lighter knowing that the choice to alter my mothers wedding dress was the absolute best. It is exaclty how I've always pictured my wedding dress. Thanks again to my mother for allowing me to alter her dress and the honor of wearing it in my own wedding.
I love my wedding dress so very much!
Can't wait to wear it this October to marry my best friend.
