I am excited for you Moon. I hope you have a wonderful wedding and a lifetime of happiness with Cowboy! Thanks to Urgrace, I found this thread and I am so happy for you. Your bridesmaids dresses are just beautiful. It was fun to read about all your decorating ideas. They sound wonderful. If you get a chance, I would love to see your website. Hope you get a little rest before the big day. Congrats again!

Update and I really don't want to talk about it or know where to start. I went to for my final dress fitting yesterday and she cut and hemmed my dress an inch too short. The boob cups where put in too high (straps where taken in to much) I know this because I have even lost a little weight. If I had not i can't imagine how short the dress would be be too.. The tie that laces up the corset is ruined. it was slightly frayed and instead of repairing the spot she took the rope, flatttened it and put a zigzag stitch up the middle. It is so bad, I can't even believe all of this as i type. I am waiting to hear back from some friends with some suggestions to some alteration people I can get to to see if they can save the dress otherwise I might have to get a new one. All but one bridesmaid forgot my birthday... Still to this day haven't remembered. The shower is a mess. I am venting.... thank you.

(((Moonie))) Sweetie...you could wear your jammies down the aisle and you'd still be a beautiful bride.

Well I know if I wear that dress I will be going barefoot... I guess that is more me anyway. They can't even get a friggin shower together how can I expect them to remember my birthday. I seriously wish I could fire bridesmaids.

Moonie, this is just a thought right off the top of my head but maybe you could put some lace on the end of the dress to lengthen it. Even if it already has some lace on it and you can't match it just replace it and add a little more at the end. I'm know that the straps can also be lengthened even if they have been cut off. I'll have to think about the rope thing but all of this is just off the top of my head and don't fret because I feel really sure that the dress can be fixed just the way you want it.

I need you Mocha... you and Pamy would make way better bridesmaid and way more fun. I don't know what I was thinking. When we get our rescue ranch MsGG I will hold you to that. The Horses are part of the wedding, does that make you want to come to the wedding now...please. I wish I could beg better. I have a lady coming over to look at the dress at 3:30.

Awww...wish things were going smoother for you. Dang. Ya know, same thing kinda happened to me when I got married. Everything worked out for the best in the end, tho. It's just getting to the walking down the "aisle" part. Once you're there, YAY you & Cowboy!!!! (((MsMoon))) ps...love, love, love the horses being part of the wedding!

Not exactly barefoot, but.... Moon - Unit and I got married in front of the night court judge in our jeans, so I'm not a lot of help in the clothing department. Whatever you wear, you will be the prettiest bride in the world.

Oh Moonie, I feel for ya! The new seamstress will probably be able to figure it out if she's any good at all. The first one should pay to replace what she ruined! I will be checking in on you to see what the new results are. Those foot embellishments are awesome! Hey, I have a cousin who got married in his jeans, no shirt or shoes, and love beads, his bride in a peasant dress and no shoes, but that was in the seventies

((((moonie))) I agree with everyone else, you will be beautiful no matter what you wear. I like the idea of adding lace to the hem. I also think the foot things are cool!
