First fitting done - so excited for this bustle!

I can’t really share these pics with anyone other than my bridesmaids, and it’s killing me!!! I’m so giddy after having my first fitting this week. The seamstress had a hard time at first with my shoulders (they’re uneven in angle after an accident I had as a cheerleader in high school), but once we talked that through the rest went so smoothly! I’m already so dang excited to get this back for the 2nd fitting where we will put padding into the cup area for some filler.

Check out that bustle!!! I kept seeing single clip bustles out there with this type of dress and wasn’t sure when she first suggested this 3-part since there was so much material to bustle and I’m so short (5’2”)... but looking back now I loooove it!!!

Who has had their first fitting already? When’s your next? My wedding is June 23 so I think I’m on a good schedule! Just need to step away from the fries now 🙈

I never realized I’d be a lace-dress girl until I tried it on! I thought I’d want all the chiffon and tulle in a big princess ball gown, but I hated every other cut on me. This was actually the 2ns dress I tried on, and kept coming back to it! Made my mother cry when I tried it on, I didn’t want to take it off and at that moment I knew it was the one!

When is your wedding? I ordered mine early May 2017, got it in November and have had it sitting in my closet until just this week! Haha.

I had no idea about all the different types of bustles out there but knew I would definitely need one being so short with a cathedral train! Good luck finding the one that works for you, and thank you! I’m absolutely in love with it already 😍

Awww thank you! Funny enough I did have “dress regret” about 3 months after picking it out during the long wait to get it delivered and seeing all these other dresses out there. Once I got it back I fell back in love with it hands down!

Woo hoo! That’s the best feeling having just ordered it! I hope it comes sooner than later for you! 😁🙌🏼 It was the best feeling getting it back and trying on MY actual dress, not just the sample that I was swimming in.

Looks amazing!! Bustle looks really nice and doesn't look to hard. I read in a BAM the other day to have your Bridesmaids or who ever will be helping on your wedding day practice your bustle the way you like! Keep the picture in notes so you have something to refer to when doing it on the big day with everything going on

This dress is gorgeous and looks so good on you. Speaking of dress regret, I haven't had any yet... until now 😉 Seriously I love long sleeves so much on other people but I couldn't pull them off. Also, the bustle looks perfect.

Well it's beautiful! Congratulations on the find.

My wedding is September 29th of this year!
I went to a dress designer in February with my mother in law's dress for a redesign. I'll get to see it in June, but I won't see the final product until July or August.

Your dress is gorgeous!❤️ My dress looks very similar to yours except it’s 3/4 sleeve. Love it though I cried when I first tried it on last month. I won’t try it on again until June and our wedding is on our fifth anniversary in August.

Thank you so much for the sweet words! ☺️💕 honestly the main reason I chose sleeves was because I have a small tattoo on my right wrist I wanted to cover and I didn’t want to have to focus on my arms in the gym since they’re the hardest for me to lean down 😂 I never thought I’d want sleeves until I started trying dresses on!
