Today I went to my first dress fitting. I was really nervous about the fit since I had purchased the dress back in August. When I tried it on in November, the dress didn't zip up as nicely as it did as in the bridal salon. So I had gone a mission to lose 5lbs - it is really hard to purposely lose 5lbs. But it worked. I went to the fitting today with all of my undergarments and my shoes and it zipped up perfectly. Angie of Maria's Alterations and Bridal (as recommended by Trudy's) told me the dress was a perfect fit. The bust has to be taken in (because I'm not a Miss American contestant), the hem has to be taken in because it's long, and the bustles have to be added. A couple of extra stitches here and there. I decided I'm going to try to lose another 5lbs so that it wont be a glove-like fit. For fitting #2 (in about a month) I need to bring in my jewelry and veil in addition to all of the accessories that I brought in today.
What does this mean? I have to limit my love of pastries and cookies. Damn it!
