The Dress is Nearly Finished!

I got in trouble for having filthy hair!!












I was not going to share any more wedding dress photos, until the day (6 weeks to go!!) but I am just too excited and need to show people!!



The dress is nearly finished now. I had a slight moment of FML when Rose asked "Have you put on weight!?!?!" Mum was telling me not to panic, and that it will be okay but the dress is pulling across my hips. If I don't lose the weight (I'm already 1kg down so will be fine) they will have to let it out!! Damn you hips, damn you to hell.



Le Reception Dress.



Still waiting on my frigging necklace to arrive. It is stuck in customs in Chicago. Noooo.


Excellent. I can sit.



Oh, and I can breathe.



Just.



The silk has yet to be pressed hence the wrinkles.



I can't wait until it has the silk covered buttons, they are so cute.






You could smuggle a couple of Mexicans across the border under my skirt!!!



This is just a mock veil, mine will be french tulle so very soft. The length is right though.





Note my bow? How could I not have a bow on my wedding dress?


This is just silk knotted, not the actual bow, as it was a last minute decision. What a fantastic decision at that.


Loving life.



Mum and I.








Hi.





My camera died half way through, hence the crappy iPhone pics.







To me, this dress is perfection. It is my dream dress and I feel a gazillion dollars in it.


I nearly cried to be honest. I had the tears, but I didn't want my mascara coated tears to drop on the dress!





I know I have said it a million times, but Rose at Annette of Melbourne is my dream dress maker. I can't even muster the words to tell her how much I love the dress.



Well, that's all folks. I have a few more fittings to go, but this is the last time you will see the dress until the wedding. I can't believe it has come around so quickly.



I only sent my invites out on Thursday, I'm a bit of a slacker.

Wedding Dress Fitting #3

I had my third Wedding Dress appointment today, which consisted of seeing the gown on the mannequin.




It is so divine, even though it is still all rough edges and not complete.




I can't recommend Annette of Melbourne enough, they are amazing.



Loving my ceremony dress beyond words.





Rose thought that I was going to be wearing the embellished belt on both the ceremony and reception gown, so made a separate belt, but now she is going to attach the beading to the actual tulle skirt so that it is not a big bulky belt.
As we are getting married in September, in Melbourne, who knows what the weather will be like. There is a very high chance that it will be wet and raining, so my bridesmaids will have the task of keeping my skirt off the wet ground before I enter the church.

How funny is the look on my mums face in this photo?! I imagine her saying "Amazzzzzzzing"






Don't mind the rough edges..




Still trying to decide on whether or not to have the cap sleeves with one layer of tulle, or 2/3 for a more substantial look due to the fullness of my skirt.



The awesomeness of my reception gown really does not show in photos yet, I suppose as it is not finished and wrinkly, I still love it though.




Sometimes less is more.




Geefa was meant to buy my Vera Wang reception necklace in America when he was there last week, but word on the street is that he forgot, so I will just order it online.


It's awesome.



Something that is driving me insane, is the hair issue.


I know that my hair up will match the dresses more, but S loves my hair down, and I found the most beautiful romantic hair style, with my hair out.


I just don't know what to do. I really don't.


Help me.





Anyway, loving the wedding dress process. Am so glad I was lucky enough to be able to go the couture route as I am so picky and had exactly the vision of what I wanted in my head, and Annette of Melbourne have been able to create it to perfection.


So glad I had the french lace and beading taken off!!
