In addition to seeing the completed invitations for the first time yesterday I also had my first dress fitting. I've heard some brides are nervous for their first fitting because it's usually been quite awhile since they have seen their dress, but for some reason I wasn't nervous at all - just super excited! I ordered my dress back in August and so hadn't seen it since, but it was just, if not more, beautiful than I had remembered. It fit wonderfully, and will need very little alternations.
As I had mentioned in previous posts, first dressing fitting = deadline for deciding on shoes. Well ladies - I have my shoes!! What really sealed the deal is when I put the dress on with the shoes the hemline was perfect! When I ordered the dress the stylists thought if I wore 3 1/2 - 4 inch heels I wouldn't need it hemmed, but my 2 inch heels worked great. I think if I went any higher the dress might have been a tad short, and if I had gone with the flats I definitely would have needed it hemmed. So the search for shoes is over (lucky pair #11 out of 12). Just 1 pair left to return :)
The last item left is my veil and I received notification that it shipped yesterday. My next fitting is in 2 weeks, so I should have everything in my possession by then, including the wedding bands that we dropped off this weekend at the jeweler for engraving.
