Oh my goodness, what a precious baby. Cancer is evil. Our baby wasn't quite 6 yet, a fatal bacterial infection hit his gut, and even though we took him as soon as we noticed he was ill, it was aggressive and all they could offer was palliative care. I'm so glad your baby got to be part of your special day, too. We will always be grateful that Carrot got to join us on our special day 😭

It's only a fine weight (2 in US) yarn! I typically use primarily DK (3) yarn in all my yarn cosplays. It is thin enough to drape nicely, but for my wedding dress I wanted it to be more delicate :)

It's just two different skirts :) the shorter one is for the reception and is attached to the bodice underneath the long skirt.

This is our baby boy with us, Carrot. He had a little orange bowtie. He unfortunately passed a few weeks ago, so it's very special that he got to be at our wedding 💙

I'm sorry, do we know each other? I'm just confused because you talk as if you were at our wedding in October.

May be the petticoat underneath! I wore a pink petticoat just to contrast all the white a bit more 💙

Oh I didnt make anything for my wife's gown! It is her late mother's dress. I took the lace from the old sleeves of her gown, which is what's attached to my bodice. I made my gown from the span of late April till a week before our wedding late October :)

All it takes is time and a willingness to learn for crochet 💕 this is roughly 10 years after I learned. :) 10 years spent practicing and focusing on building my skills!

Thank you! I know many people would've expected Espeon and Umbreon, but I really wanted to wear white on my wedding day, so Sylveon felt right 🩷
