OK, went to the dress shop for my first fitting today! It was a little hard to understand the lady, but things turned out fine. I didn't have a particularly good time, but things turned out well. It's gonna cost $226 to have the strap adjusted, the bodice taken in, the skirt hemmed, the bustle put in, cups sewn in, and have a wrap made from some extra fabric we ordered with the dress. She's even putting an extra pad in the right cup for me to even my boobs out - you have no idea how dumb I felt asking her for that! But I'm not having a bustier now, so that's one less thing to buy. Mom thought I needed a necklace with it, so we went and bought one. I'll post pictures of that later.

First, the veil, just to keep you in suspense.

Oooh! Gorgeous Jacqui! :) How fun! Can't wait for my first fitting... but ouch, $226 for alterations, but then again, you're getting a lot done for that.
