So I dont know if any of you remember but my dress dilemma got worse!!! I ordered a size 2 as recommended by the bridal shop lady. It came in about two months ago and it was deformed. Maggie Sottero had to cut a new one and it just got here. Mind you i leave in less that 4 weeks. And now its TOO SMALL!! It needs let out and its chiffon. My question to you girls is will you be able to tell with that material that it has been let out! I am so screwed if it looks bad! and I may just have to go in my bikini!! hehe HELP

Do you have a picture of it that you can post? How much does it have to be let out, and where is it tight?

 

I would take a look at the seams, if they are visible. This is the material that the seamstress will have to work with, and will give you an idea of how much the dress *can* be let out. Generally speaking, I've been told that if you let out every single seam to the max, you can usually get around 4 inches, which is quite a lot, so I'm sure getting it to fit won't be a problem, unless the dress is really, really small on you. What might be a problem is that the fabric where the stitching was might show the thread holes, since the material is chiffon. Again, look at where the existing stitches are and see if the holes look like they might show.

 

At any rate, I'd book an appointment with a seamtress ASAP to see what can be done. I think letting it out won't be a problem, but since the fabric is chiffon, there may be issues - a good seamstress should be able to tell you what the situation is right away.

I dont have pictures. Its at the bridal shop still. I can get the dress on its just super tight. I dont think I will need 4 inches taken out at all. If it looks bad then friday I am on the search for a new dress!! =) I am just not going to stress about it. Everything happens for a reason! =) Thanks for all your responses!!

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
