The Dress




I jumpped the gun a bit and already bought my wedding dress. It is a Maggie Sottero dress that cost less than the non-designer rip off from Alfread Angelo. I'm excited!
I however, am terrified that I got it in a size that is too big.
I must be the only peron in the world worried that their dress will be too big.
My father, who was kind enough to buy me the dress, suggested I get the bigger size because well, "They can always take it in." The bridal lady suggested that I buy one size smaller... said that the other dress is "safe" but she reccomends that I buy the smaller size. I should've taken the bridal lady's advice... it is after all her job to know those kinds of things.
Everyone says never to plan your own wedding. I'm doing a great job thus far. I've gotten the facility, catering, photography, florist, decorations, and a few other details but with the dress I'm baffled. What if it comes in far too big (I say far because I already know it is too big) and even after they take it in it does not fit me correctly? What if they cant make it work?
I know another florist who whorks in a bridal store with a lady who is well known for her alterations abilities maybe I can take it there after I am dissapointed. I think I am the only bride in History who is afraid to loose weight before her wedding day.
Sniffle.

I had to call and get the dress bigger because of the baby but I am still afraid that it will be REALLY big and un-fixable. That is really my only stress now.
