Yes I did, however, I didn't want to make myself crazy and besides I had put money down and couldn't get it back. So I just made peace with my decision.

Girl, relax, relate, release!! you are on a roll lately!! :) I know it is getting down to the wire, but just know EVERYTHING is going to be just beautiful!!! hey go back to the post about the different wines and take you a few sippy sips to calm your nerves!! :O but on the for real, just relax and enjoy these last few weeks..you seem to have all of the major things completed so it should be smooth sailing from here! :)
On top of that Soon ...I feel like sick is trying to get me! I am really bothered about this color of these dresses bae, and you know I'm sitting here all mugged out-wanting to throw everything away and start with a whole new scheme of things!
I want some crabs! Getting ready to call FH ....It's either that or my weakness ...shopping-and I already saw 4 pair of boots today that I could have copped real easy...
Turiya don't make me knock you out! As many of us ladies here wishing we had half the stuff done you do and you around here trying to make MORE stuff to do! Girl go sit down before I get my belt!
LOL! ok ok Future ..:) I've come to a "small" grip on the matter, still making peace with ...The color of the dresses are ...I would say a shiny brick INSTEAD of deep burgungy...so I'm going over to After Hours and change up the guys vest...give both girls Gold balls and lighten their ribbon...will post pics by the weekend...
On a lighter note-Paid the photographer last night (the full amount, bc he was saying .5 now .5 later ...nope take this while we have it) and I gave him what I wanted on the projector presentation during our first dance ...
Question for you ladies ...Have anyone seen the preview to "This Christmas" with Chris Brown? We wanted that version of This Christmas played during our first dance ...:)
I went against the grain (as I do) and proceeded to order the "other" dress I JUST HAD TO HAVE bc it was this and it was that ...so I calls Lindsey, and she says sorry, that dress is not in stock and won't be until the end of December ...so ladies bc my steps are ordered, Imma be happy with what I have and knock em out with the original dress ...
Turiya you are a mess girl, LOL !! See how God works. You even got him saying "If you don't stop it already" Girl you better enjoy these last few days while you can. Just rub your ear lobes and say "Oew Sah".
"I'm a work in progress, God is not through me yet"
Turiya-we need to SEDATE you until about 5 days before-that way you can't make or TRY to make any more changes! :) see, HIS will not YOUR will-that dress was NOT for you!!!!!!! LOL
Turiya I'm am all the way done with you on dresses! That dress is pretty but it is not YOURS! Haha, j/k! But really you will be absolutely gorgeous in your original gown!
Yeah, ONLY because it is out of stock! :) girl, post your dress so we can oooh and ahhh oger it so you will stop this foolishness!!! :) (I sound old saying that don't I?-my grandma always says that word "foolishness") LOL
I know that's right! You will be so stunningly beautiful. You chose your original dress for a reason. You will have no regrets! All the best my sister.

Ladies ..I busted the dress out of the very back of my closet, where it has been since July ...and put in on again, so I can like it ..and I did. I took some pics, with the hopes you can get a visual...I haven't had it altered yet though..
top detail
bottom detail
trynna get the whole thing
with my bouquet and the girls ball -(they both will have gold, bc of the color mix up)-don't mind my daughters messy room pls!
with shoes and bouquet
girl's dress (it has gold beads at the top) with shoes and ball (i found a ball crinkled just like their shoes)
BTW-I started the programs- it may be a little hard to see ..
Everything looks well coordinated. I love the shoes you found to match your dress. And that ball matches perfectly with your BM shoes. Nice job. Are you wearing a tiara or veil?
"I'm a work in progress, God is not through me yet"
I think a long veil would go well with it and you could still do hair jewelry. Try on a couple veils with the dress and see what you think. Originally I didn't want to do a veil either but once I tried it, it definitely completed the look.
"I'm a work in progress, God is not through me yet"
And you know what ...if I was going to do one ...it would have been a very long one, cause I don't have a train so my veil was going to be longer than my dress .. :)
Imma try it, where did you get yours? I may just DIY it.
Girl you are working it out! Everything looks really nice together. I see what you mean about the color of the girls dresses but I actually like the gold ball better with it anyway because of the shoes!
Thanks Future! The other gold one was glittered like the burgundy one, but I ran up on these, and like it better THEN got home and saw how well it matched the shoes.. :)
I'm dealing with the color a little better now, I kept the original ribbon though although the burgundy in it is a little dark ..it still flows, it'll work ...:)
My mother was originally going to make mines but she was taking to long to get started so I ordered one from the bridal shop my dress came from. That was a major source of frustration because I wanted all this custom stuff done to it. I added and extra tier to it and I also added 6 inches to length of longest tier just to make sure it was longer than my dress train. Oh and did I mention the longest tier had to be attached with Velcro so I could remove just that one layer for the reception. The veil didn't come in until 1 week before wedding and then I decided I wanted to add rhinestones because the glass beads didn't sparkle enough. Girl I was a mess altering everything at the last minute. Just like you..LOL

Dafont.com is one, but not the one I use ..and I can't think of that one's name ...it's saved on my computer at home ...I can tell you tonight or tomorrow ...

Turiya, I can definitely see the jewelry in the hair for you, provided if you can find some gold ones to tie in your look, as for the veil, if you're having one, a more champagne looking type of material will be absolutely divine.
Girl, I'm getting misty and I haven't even seen you come down the aisle yet!!! Wow, girl, you will blow your FH's mind as you come down the ailse on your wedding day!!!
Turiya- the dress is adorable- the color is also really unique and elegant- it complements your skintone. I agree with Ginoue- the jewels in the hair can really sparkle if also in the champagne and gold notes of your dress- you will look amazing. Have you had a trial yet??
Thanks ladies! I'm DIYing the veil ...went last night to get the things for it ...I got a light shimmery gold material, and gold sequence for the edge ..I can post pics (if you want) in a couple of days ...time is dwindling down and .....
I'm so excited,
And I just can't hide it,
I'm about to lose control
And I think I like it.
I'm so excited,
And I just can't hide it,
And I know, I know, I know, I know
I know I want you, want you.
