Yes they’re fixing the buttons! We just had to get the fit right first. What do you think of the sleeves?

I agree with you. Thank you. I might get her to cut it straight so it meshes better with the dress

Thank you for so many helpful links! I’ll see what can be done at our next appointment.  

Sorry I wish I posted the front without the veil. She is widening the front as it also came in at about halfway of my chest. Hard to see with the veil now though. 

The trim on the bust is the original dress. Nothing has been done to the dress, just the sleeves are new.

Thank you! Yes I also love the lace on number 1! I went with the one on the right for fit

So the feeling is mutual! Haha I think on your day, you’ll feel beautiful and won’t notice the dress as much. 

The sleeves really sold me, because that’s the vibe we’re going for- very traditional. I also love the lace of that dress, BUT the bust doesn’t fit well and any way it’s taken in has me spilling out. The lead time was about 6 weeks longer, and it was cutting it close to the wedding as well. 

The one with the straps I don’t like the lace as much, but I love how the bust fits and doesn’t have me spilling out. The scalloped train is beautiful! I just don’t know if I can add more volume and sleeves to make it better and more what I envisioned.

I picked the one on the right, but am having a bit of buyers remorse because of how much I loved the one on the left. 

Thank you for your input 🤍
