I don't have a picture of the wedding gown as it belongs to the new collection and she hasn't done a shoot yet. I can't share the pictures she took of me etc but she sent me a copy of the bridesmaids dresses and the reception gown. The wedding gown is actually a modified (and much much more gorgeous) version of this dress. It is going to be altered a lot (cap sleeves still but different material and we will add some sparkles either diamonds/swaroski crystal or pearls), the will also modify the front/upper part of the bodice, the silhouette is still exactly the same and there are those layers albeit in a different fabric. Oh and I will also have a veil which is 3/4 to a 1/2 embroided. The juxtaposition of the veil and the train is absolutely gorgeous . I am in love with my dress

The bridesmaid dress will be altered - we are thinking of adding of a red stash during the day & crystal belt for the evening, we might also shorten the ties - it all depends on how the dress actually look on the girls as it is already ! The colour will be a rich cobalt/royal blue.

We will not be altering the wedding reception gown too much as it really looked amazing as it was. We will probably just shorten the train and have a bit of fun with the lining (I want to at least add our moto + wedding date + initials )Oh and I won't be wearing the cover up of course

The jewellery stay the same and I might add a bracelet for the evening, we will see.
Since all the dress are custom made, I have free reign on fabric and colors. I am leaning toward an off white for now (cream and the like looked positively horrendous with my skin tone )
I am completely lost for the shoes, especially for the bridesmaids as I don't think the Choo will work, still trying to find something off the rack. I just want them red, not too high, very simple, clean lines, elegant and practical. I realised too much embroideries might just look unfortunate and get stuck in fabric. We never know ! I want something simpler and cleaner for them.
My shoes will be custom made no idea what to go for except that they must be crimson red color. First appointment on the 6th with the designer - uber excited She said the process should take at least 6 months for each pair though
/ end of my rambling, I am just so happy I can't help it
