I cannot believe they pulled it off for me!!

THIS DRESS ❤ Omg this dress.
When we first got engaged I had no intentions of a big fancy expensive dress.
But then my mom suggested we go try a few on and get ideas so we could order something online.
So we made an appointment at @bridalconnectiondsm . We got there, Selena listened to what I wanted, and she picked out about 5 or 6 dresses. This was the first one I put on.
The others were also gorgeous, but there was just something about this one.
But I didn't want a big, fancy, expensive dress.... so I grabbed a friend and we went to something like 8 bridal shops around the Des Moines Metro and I tried on probably 40 dresses, and I honestly hated all of them.
So our last stop of the day was back at Bridal Connection. I tried it on and she instantly started crying.
So with the Express permission of my husband-to-be (sight unseen), I bought it.
But there was a problem. It was a size 26. I was probably a size 18/20. So we did a lottttt of alterations. We were almost done with it when we canceled our first wedding so I picked it up, unfinished, and took it home to my moms house for the better part of a year and a half.
Fast forward three more wedding dates, I called my new friend Celina (different one from before, same shop) and told her I needed to see if we could do anything about my dress.... but there was a catch. I had lost 60 more lbs.
I could hear the panic in her voice a little. "Uhhh, yeah. We will absolutely try. But I just want to warn you, that is a LOT. It MIGHT NOT be possible"
So after about a week of panicking, I went in and met with the seamstress and they got started on the dress again.
FIVE more fitting appointments
SIXTEEN more inches out of the waist
Bra cups
Hemming the bottom (which is a task in and of itself)
Cinching the skirt sides
Undoing and redoing the sleeves three times
And a bustle later
We have it.
My seamstress CK worked her BUTT OFF to make sure this dress could happen for me. And Celina (who is seriously a new friend I made out of the deal) made sure it all could happen.
This dress was an absolute dream come true. I'm not 100% how they made it happen for me but DANG 🔥🔥🔥 THEY DID SO GOOD!
Size 26 dress to an estimated size 14. 🤯

Amazing experience

Bridal connection in ankeny was more than helpful in our planning process. They got together everything we needed and were great with communicating back and forth with us.

It was amazing! I only tried on 4 or 5 dresses and I found the perfect one.

Perfect I wouldn’t have gone to anyone else! The dress I tried on that I really liked was to small so she went and got a different dress that she thought I would like that would fit and even before I tried it on I knew it was the one.
