THE SUMMER BRIDE AND 2 WEDDING DRESSES


Hello darlings!
Here is the reason I was missing from our blogging world - I was preparing for a very happy event.
After getting through some hard times, sicknesses and storms, me and Mike decided to renew our vows after 15 years of marriage!!!
This post is about 2 dresses that I wore and that I made myself:-)


                     This was more contemporary, very feminine, lace dress, that I wore for a cocktail hour,                                                         greeting guests and some pictures taken.


                                                              Love this 1938 Cadillac!


                                          This dress was very friendly in making. Best part was learning how to make a corset. Really amazing experience!

                                 
                                                  I added a beaded belt from David's Bridal


Me and my beautiful MOM. The color theme of the event was all shades of purple, pink and lavender.

                 I asked my florist to connect a necklace from David's Bridal to the bottom of my bouquet.


For the ceremony I wore this vintage dress that was 30+ years old and picked up in a vintage store.
                         It had a long chapel train and made a nice entrance.





Net head piece was made with a help of my very creative MOM.
It was a great addition to my vintage dress.






Yes, this is the original dress and the skirt when I took it apart:-) The dress was size 0!!!! and this is how much I had to add to each side of a bustier.

 I even created these beautiful "angel like" sleeves. But what was looking good on a mannequin, made me look like a gladiator in reality:-) So, I had to lose the sleeves:-)



Somehow, 4 months later..... I managed to create this very special dress.
