The Dress! *pics*

Sorry for not noting everyone as much. I’ve been so busy, but I’ve been reading you all. Thanks so much for all your support and sweet words.

I know I said I would just edit my last entry but I got lots to say so I just decided to write a new entry. I talked to my mom about the “thing” with Dee, and told her that she MIGHT try and pull something, and my mom told me she would kick her ass. Before I said anything. Listen one thing my mom knows is how to beat the crap outta someone. I know from personal experience from her that she is a damn good beater lol. But Chris said she can just watch it and see all hope die.

I wrote that part first because I knew if I started with dress stuff no one would read after that lol. i never got the call from the shop. The girl talked to the seamstress and forgot to call back and left since her shift was over when the seamstress got there. So I called and The seamstress could totally take the SAMPLE off by lowering and slanting it  slightly. I will look really cute. So I went and paid for the dress. The seamstress is a different person  then that of the shop. She goes in there but has her own prices. So she’ll still charge for the dress alterations on the SAMPLE word, but the shop gave me 10% off on the dress. So I paid less that the sticker price, including tax. So yay! I GOT MY DRESS and a discount. They were so sweet about it, and we were on the phone brainstorming together about how we could get the dress. We even went shopping at two other Bridal shops, but I couldnt find anything I like. We just KNEW it was the one. Positive thinking really does help things out. I have a fitting on Monday at 1:15p.m. and thats when the SAMPLE will be removed.

Next question: Did you take pictures? Yes I did. I brought it home until the fitting so I could show Sandra and to make sure it matched the my shoes. The dress is ivory with some silver beading…Well you’ll see it. The headpiece we bought is now out, because its white, and the dress is ivory so instead we are having a florist make a baby’s breath halo for my hair. Im wearing ivory cloth shoes that match perfectly…oh wait..I’ll just take a picture real fast…Okay done. But who cares about that, bring on the photos!

The SAMPLE stamp (remember its being altered out.) I still dont get why they would do this. Thank goodness its close enough to the zipper to slant it off the dress.

Pretty. They put the sample stamp there so that no one is tempted to steal the dresses… who wants to walk down the aisle with a big SAMPLE stamped on their dress….? exactly. 😉
