Alterations Appointment

Sine, on January 13, 2022 at 1:04 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 5
Okay so I took my dress to David's Bridal to get it altered. I'm feeling much more confident and happy and I cannot wait to get the dress back. I have the appointment for when it's done set up and I was just going to go by myself since I don't have a wedding party but now I'm wondering if I should ask my Mom to go with me. We aren't close and she has had no involvement in my wedding; she doesn't even discuss it with me. Do I offer this chance to see me in the dress and try and be involved or save my heart and stress from her possible negative comments?

    If you're not close with her, I wouldn't invite her to go to the appointment.

    The line “save my heart and stress from her negative comments” says it all. I would not share a joyous occasion with someone who would make you feel this way.

    She doesn’t sound like someone I would want around for that

    Mm, is there a close friend you can take with you? I definitely don't think you should take your mum, but it's nice to have someone..

    I guess if you don't need to bustle your dress or need assistance in getting in or out of it (I will, due to its' size) then you really don't need anyone with you, but at my last appointment, they will show me how to bustle my dress - it's only one bustle point so shouldn't be too hard, but I'm still having one of my bridesmaids video the process so it doesn't matter who is with me on the day, they can all watch the video and figure out how to do it! If I hadn't had any bridesmaids I would have taken a close friend - my mother is most likely to be the one helping me into my dress, but she lives a bit far and is immunocompromised, so the video will have to do.

    Yeah you're right...I already said it. It's just a shame. I'll take a friend instead.
