Tried on a few gowns before signing with the bridal studio :D
Proudly presented to Colleague Michelle (who just got married) my contract which Simba and I signed with acquiescence to the wedding coordinators' fierce persuasion, but to my surprise, she went "AHHHHH, HJ you should have asked me along! I would have asked for more things for YOU!!" LOL.
I came into the studio, fell in love with it and set my mind on it. Although I might not have gotten everything's worth, but overall my wedding package is pretty good. After all, what matters the most is not the price tag that comes along with it or everything I can squeeze out of it, but it's whether the bridal studio's style matches what I'm looking for. :D
The wedding coordinator got me to describe the sort of gown I like, and after some brief introduction of myself and elucidation of that perfect dress, she defines my style as "Romantic".
After what seems like a thousand years of browsing through the catalogue, I pointed (see below) out what I thought is iconic in the olden days, and she explained that this is translucent so she got me something similar but is opaque lol.
Fell in love with the embellishment on the gown and the sashay bottom, though a bit of layering, lace, ruffles or frills will be great too! Maybe I will add on a piece of off-shoulder cloth on my arm (it's so cool the cloth is detachable)!
Just as I thought the feeling of slipping into a gown would be nothing but blissful, to the contrary, when I saw myself wearing a gown for the first time in front of the ceiling-length mirror, I felt utterly, absolutely insecure in an environment filled with other customers since I looked so tanned in that pure white dress and weird without much make-up on. LOL. My shoulders went all the way down I was practically hunching and the coordinator reassured me and said while she adjusted my posture, "The thing about wearing a gown is that the bride wearing it should feel beautiful and confident in it. Everyone will be looking at you the moment you walk into the hall, so you can't be hunching this way." Hmmm..
U know, actually u don't need to trim your tummy unless u choose a mermaid cutting gown! For all other types of cutting, they design it such that your waist looks way smaller than it actually is! Lol no time left so I'm going to focus on arm slimming only!
Cousin said she wants to tag along the next time I go for gown fitting LOL! Told her that I wanted a toga but she advised me against it, saying that it will not be as elegant as other gowns.. Hmmm.. What do u think? I love Grecian... If you watched Thor 2, U must have noticed the gown that Natalie Portman wore in ancient Greece. :D
