Happpiness is a white dress...

I am SO excited today because I went to my dress fitting & it went really well.  I worked with Ann and she was very nice and friendly - made me feel very comfortable and relaxed.  I had to parade around in my dress to make sure it was hemmed to a good length for me, and I got to see the different options for my bustle.  I went with the overbustle, which is the most popular choice.

I had been nervous that maybe my dress wouldn't fit right or something about it on me wouldn't look good.  I was SO wrong.  I have pretty much kept at the same weight, but my fear is that I will all of a sudden gain weight and no longer fit into my dress.  I've been very active - playing tennis a TON, and trying to watch what I eat, and when last I went to the doctor I had lost weight - so yay!  Ann told me that the dress was 100% perfect on me.  Now, I just need to make sure I keep it that way.

In other wedding related news...We have begun to get reply cards back and as of 3:30pm, we were up to 24 guests.  On the hair and make-up front, I just got off the phone with a woman at one of the local salons (just down the road from the hotel), and she told me she is available and what her pricing is.  She has to check with her make-up girls, but if they are free and reasonable, I think I might just go with them.  She was really nice and accomodating, and she even told me that my hair will be less expensive than normal because I really just want it blow-dried and then styled curly.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this one works out :-)
