Wedding My First Fitting (Pics!)

[buttercup80]

Okay - I''ve been killing myself trying to lose weight because when I ordered my dress I was between sizes and went with the smaller one. . .

Not only does my dress fit - it''s too big! It has to be taken in!!!

I''m sorry for the very few and terrbile pics - my aunt, though I love her, is no good with a camera. . . these are all I''ve got till my next fitting in a few weeks. Excuse the look on my face in the last one - I didn''t know she was taking the pic. . .

argh! I can''t get the pics to upload - the file sizes are too big even after I optimized them for the web. . . trying again.

Help! How do I make them smaller?

 

[meresal]

Are they too big, or do you just have a very generic name for them? The web sizes should be perfect.


ETA: If you right click on the pic, and open it with "Edit". Then go to "Image" drop down and pick stretch/skew. Then put 85% in each box in the Horizontal and Vertical boxes under "STRETCH". This should do it.

Great job Buttercup! You have inspired me to eat my Jenny Craig dinner tonight! (I have weight to lose before my October fitting also)

That is so fantastic that you are even smaller. My worst nightmare is not being able to squeeze into my dress

Gorgeous! What a beautiful dress! And congratulations on the weight loss, that''s a lot of work, especially during high-stress wedding planning.

The dress gorgeous and you are going to look wonderful.

Congrats on it needing to be taken in that is awesome!!

It looks beautiful, I can't wait to see it after it's altered.

ETA: Fixed typos.

Thanks!!! I love my dress SO much, but the pics don''t really do it justice AT all - my MOH was supposed to come and take pics, but got called into work at the last minute and my aunt is not really good with the camera. . . it was on beach mode somehow. . .

The dress is GR-107 from Demetrios Sensualle and the ONE model pic on their website just doesn''t look great - I wish I could find some pics on real brides, but no luck. . . Now I can''t wait to go back 9/12 to get more!!! Also, it looks weird in these because it''s all pinned. . .
