Final Fitting Pics

[dani2142]

Hey Ladies.. just had my final fitting on Sunday. I got to take the dress home already. I''m getting really excited. I just wanted to share the difference in my dress from the beginning to the end. The lady who did my alterations is amazing! The first pictures is in David''s Bridal when I first bought the dress. The second picture is my actual dress after all the alterations.

I had a dress freak out awhile back in about July or August and I have to say I feel so stupid for wanting a new dress or thinking about making this one a strapless. I didn''t realize that it would make such a HUGE difference having the dress altered to fit me. Guess I''m naive about that stuff.

Anyway... just wanted to let other brides out there know not to second guess until after you talk to alterations!!!

Yeah I hope so! It will be the highlight of my night. I''m excited to try some new beers. We are planning on going to some other bars in the area after the brewery but I''m secretly hoping we spend most of our time there LOL we have a hotel that''s right next to it. It''s literally .10 of a mile away. Can''t beat that right?
