Dress fitting
I had my first dress fitting Monday night. I was a bit worried the fabric was going to look too silver once it was made up, but it was perfect. Exactly how I imagined. I was really happy with it. It was still in quite a rough stage - obviously - and she made a few more alterations to it. I wanted the neckline lowered and widened - she had more of a round neck whereas I wanted more of a slash neck, and she agreed to alter the train slightly.
I have my next fitting on 4th Feb, and then my final fitting on the morning of the hen party (16th). She said though that if she wasn't 100% satisfied with it at the final fitting, I would have to come back in the week and pick it up. I'm not going to argue with that!
She loved my pink beaded shoes, and next time I have to take my veil along too.
All the girls have now received their hen party invite e-mails from Kat and Lel. I keep getting told I'm going to have surprises. It's a bit nerve racking for a control freak like me! I don't even have a hint of what's going to happen. I know they've also e-mailed Ben but he said they didn't really say anything. Hmmm.
One of Ben's family members has dropped out so we gave in to parental pressure and invited one of Ben's dad's friends and his wife. I don't really want them there cos the last time we met them, she kept hinting about being invited to the wedding. I wanted to slap her. But I felt bad cos Ben's parents have been invited to all their children's weddings, and he is a very old friend of Ben's dad from school. Plus they were at Ben's brother's wedding so... That means we're on 63. And that's final!
