I thought I would finally post the pics that I have of my wedding dress. I purchased it about 2 months ago and now I am just waiting for it to come in!
Please excuse the terrible pics - these were taken the first time I tried it on (it was actually the first dress I ever tried on) and I wasn''t really posing cute or anything b/c at the time I couldn''t believe that this would be the "one." (I tried on more gowns after this one, then went to a different salon and I kept coming back to this one)
I lost about 18 lbs since the pic was taken and I cropped my face out of the first one b/c I look weird.
Also, the veil that I purchased is much different ( I forgot to take pics - I will take some when I have my fittings). Its fingertip length (I think) and double layer with the bottom layer lined in satin. Its very clean and chic.
I ordered the gown with a longer train (it comes as chapel length). I had 24'''' of fabric added. I used to love long trains and big bustles but lately I have been thinking maybe that was a bad idea. I will have the seamstress take off the extra fabric if it looks bad when the gown comes in.
Anyway, its made my Romona Keveza and the fabric is natural silk. I purchased it at Harriet Kassman in Washington, DC. ( I highly recommend it there- small salon, personal attention, VERY knowledgeable staff, wonderful experience)
