So we made it home alive from our Vegas trip. I choose not to elaborate. Not because we raged the whole time, but because we were all pretty boring, and there’s not much to tell. Oh but I did wear my bathing suit and was of course the only person (aside from the one 60+ woman at the pool) wearing a one-piece. That’s right. I’m a rebel.
Anyway . . . now I’m back to work with my latest bride, sweetie-pie Lisa. She chose a dress from J.Crew for her October wedding this year. It looks absolutely stunning on her, but needs some slight alterations to the fit and could use a little something extra.
P.S. It doesn’t fit this dress form, so it looks a little wonky here, but it’s lovely on Lisa. Anyway, she likes it, but it’s not breaking her heart or anything, so she’s asked for some delicate embellishments to personalize it a bit. She ordered additional fabric from J.Crew, which is like the smartest thing ever when ordering an off-the-rack gown, because you can do anything with it. She also brought me her mom’s wedding gown and asked that I use some of the lace trimming and add it to her own. SO SWEET. We’re going to do something similar to this . . .
. . . only way better. With two straps and crinkled chiffon flowers with tiny lace embroidered centers. No one will ever know it’s J.Crew!





Wow, never considered J Crew would let me order extra fabric… regular wedding gowns sure…but this is great info! Love how she made the dress her own!
