    Congratulations!!!! You look so happy and healthy. I did the same thing last year. Ordered a dress in January that fit well at the time, started losing weight in March. By August I had lost enough that they couldn't take it in enough and ended up returning it toward a NEW dress that I loved even more.

    Have a wonderful time at your wedding, dance all day and enjoy feeling so much better.

    I did the same thing as you by ordering a dress that fit comfortably at the time instead of a size smaller. I don't know why girls add that amount of pressure to themselves, planning a wedding is stressful enough. And I LOVE that dress, super gorgeous!

    Even holding off on shopping wouldn't have helped me as I didn't get on the wagon until January! Thr safety net was nice to have though, but it was so rewarding (although not for my alterations budget) to have it taken in so much!

    That's amazing! It's good that they allowed you to exchange your dress as well :)

    Wonderful job!!!! That's so great!

    That inspired me to share my wedding dress photos :smile:

    The photo on the left is the day of my wedding. The picture on the right is exactly 10 years later. (impromptu trying on of the dress, hence the random hat)

    Trying your wedding dress on whether just a few months or 10 years later and it's too big is such a great feeling!! Congratulations to you dear!

    Great job! Your dress is so beautiful and unique! I love it and love that you had take it in. It's been 39 years since I wore my wedding dress but I'm thinking of getting it out someday soon. I don't know what size I was when I got married, but there's a good chance it would fit!
