[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

That's beautiful, Maria. You're going to look like a princess.

If you remove it her head falls off!
(tell me I'm not the only one who knows that ghost story!)

Nope. I added a very Audrey Hepburn-esque portrait collar to cover my shoulders and back for the church. I'll remove it for the reception.
Thank you, ChiKat. I almost want to marry the dress. But not quite.
Now give us the description...
Ivory silk mikado, hand-embroidered and beaded, chapel-length train that's already bustled three times, and simply beautiful. It's still the One. True. Dress.

If I lose a thousand pounds could I wear it?
How are you doing your hair? And do your brides maids know they're not allowed to eat things?
Trudes, you could wear it now. I'm certainly no skinny minny.
My hair is going to be half up, half down. The bangs will be swept across the forehead, and the crown will have a little height, because the 120 inch cathedral-length veil (which Mother insisted on) and headpiece needs a sturdy anchor. The sides will be pulled back and blended into the back of the hair, so it looks as if it's being invisibly held back.
And do your brides maids know they're not allowed to eat things?
BWAH! My bridesmaids will not be able to AVOID the food. Hello? Big fat Italian family here? Heh.
the 120 inch cathedral-length veil
I'm a sucker for cathedral-length veils. Love love LOVE them. If I have a church wedding, I'm SO getting one.

It's just as well this is being done professionally, by which I mean someone other than me, as my interpretation of the above would be "Sticking out horizontally".

I love this one too, despite my initial reservations. It's got embroidery and beadwork on it--not plain at all. I picked it up last Friday, and it took my breath away. I'll try and take a picture of it this weekend.
Edited for context.
