recap part 2: wedding dress

I am very glad I made my own dress for my wedding.  As far as I can tell it wasn’t even more stressful to make it than buy a dress after hearing about poor quality and fitting horror stories from a couple friends this summer.  At least I had no one else but myself to get mad at if it turned out poorly.  I was comfortable and a good temperature all night, and I’m glad I didn’t do a train… just not my thing.  Here are a few photos and comments in order of the gallery.

1. Tadaaaaa- my completed wedding dress laying out on the hotel room bed, waiting for me to put it on.

2. A close up of the layers- it looks so fluffy!

3. A full shot- Although it fit great I still felt the need to hitch it up every once in a while, just to check.

4. The pretty side.

5. The not-as-pretty side- there’s a zipper hiding in there somewhere.
