    I am surprised if they did appropriate measuring and markings how it wasn't taken in better to fit your new figure. That being said, I love the way your dress flows. It is very pretty on you. I really agree with the sash idea. Maybe a color that matches your colors. I myself am getting married in 13 days. I went in 4 weeks ago for my dress fitting. I had lost so much they are having to take it in everywhere. I didn't really like how I looked in it compared to how I looked it in when I bought it. However, the lady is alterations, anticipating I will lose more with wedding stress, took it in nice and snug and said if I come in they will rush more alterations to make it fit right. I go in thursday for the final fitting. I am wearing a strapless dress and I am using a lilac colored sash. It really makes the dress and everything pop. At least my wedding shop, has some sashes on hand. Go in there with your dress and try on some sashes. You can get some that are just colored, that are thinner, or thicker, some even have stones on them.

    But I bet once your hair and make up is done, jewerly is on, you will look and feel gorgeous!

    I think the dress looks really nice, but I agree with the first response, a ribbon around the waist or even higher like and empire waist would look nice. You could add a colored one to match your décor.

    That dress is very pretty. If you are worried about the waist then a satin sash or ribbon could bring the waist in to make it look more defined. But, you look great.

    So I didn't alter my dress, I just decided to eat normally and not diet the last week..that helped a little. It ended up still being a little big on me in the mid-section but that's ok...we had a wonderful wedding :):drinker:

    You look GORGEOUS!! And totally thin in the waist! So glad you were happy with it in the end (so easy to get a bit crazy before the wedding!)

    Congratulations!

    You look wonderful! And I'll bet you were a lot more comfortable at the wedding than you would have been if you had had it taken in. Congratulations!!

    the dress still looks beautiful just a little loose in the waist. Maybe you could try a sash to cinch it in make it fit a bit better. Hope is not lost. you still have time.

    Brillant idea. Love the dress

    I agree with this! I LOVE your dress! I was watching one of those bad cable wedding dress shows last week and I remember one dress where they decided to add a ribbon belt with a sparkly rhinestone "buckle" and it just MADE the dress! It was an ivory lace dress also. I wonder if a bridal shop would have something like that on hand? But no matter what, it is a lovely dress and congratulations on both your weight loss and your wedding. :) I hope it is wonderful!
