Wedding Dress Collected

Today I went to the seamstress to collect my altered wedding dress and it was so beautiful and now perfectly my size. It made me become teary compared to when I got it from the shop. I am not a graceful person but the dress made me feel like a swan. Unfortunately, because my family is not with me here in the UK and my friends are all busy working, I had to do the final fitting alone. So no photos. Now my mission is to maintain my weight before the wedding.

@allknowing Did you practice your wedding dance with a professional teacher? Me and my partner cannot dance.

You can do it. Just looking at your dress will give you the willpower to maintain your weight.

DO not show us your wedding dressing before the wedding day, but I will love to see it when someone will take your wedding photos.

I will definitely share an update after the wedding. Is it a superstition to not show the wedding dress before the wedding?

@flapiz Yes it is an old Italian superstition. Also the groom should not see the married before she gets into the church. My husband came to the apartment of my parents and he saw me.

It is my biggest fear as I do love to eat and have hormonal issues on top of that.

I'm sure you look gorgeous and of course I'm disappointed you weren't able to share a picture. Hopefully you'll have a wedding picture to share. It's getting close now

That's a shame no-one could go with you for the final fitting. But now they'll all be blown away by how beautiful you'll look.

Yeah it will be a surprise. I do hope I continue to fit it. And also that it doesn't get too mauled on the flight.
