53 days

Wow, it's getting down there fast. Just 53 days til our rededication.

My alterations on my dress are moving along. Saturday was a long, and stressful day of trying to get the bodice and sleeves just right to match the dress. I think it's a good match, and will find out later this week when I attach them and try it on again.

Tim's wedding outfit will be grey pants, a white cuban shirt and bare feet, and I am altering a couple of cuban shirts as his measurements are very specific. I have taken an xxl shirt, opened the side seams, removed the sleeves, so I can adjust the shoulders and then will shorten and reattach the sleeves to fit his frame. I will then mark and stitch the side seams for a more fitted measurement. He will need one shirt for the ceremony and photo shoot, including trash the dress, and then we will change for a short shoot where we will pose to match our cake topper. For that shoot he will wear a long sleeve white dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up, a black tie, and the same grey pants from the ceremony. After that, we will change into our wedding dinner clothes. He will wear the other cuban shirt and not sure on the pants, still working that out.

Right now, I have the first shirt taken apart, and the second is partly taken apart.

My veil is due to come in this week or next, can't wait to see it. I've started sorting and will begin initial packing this week.
