dummyspy...from what i know, she didn't check her gown before she collects it... her wedding was quite rush... cos she married on the hot date 070707.... well, my guess is if marry on hot date...a lot of other brides also need their gown..so quality will drop a little... hopefully it's just a one-off incident... but it's enough to change my mind... and i dun think she realised that she merged into the surroundings... she did not do a proper check...
so it's good to share tips... like what to check when u collect ur gown... make sure it's all hemmed up..so no loose strings...beadings all sew on properly... fits properly..most important... and last but not least... get some hollywood tape... u can never be too KS for ur wedding... cos u never know what u might need to tape in/up/back etc...
bring ur shoes to all fittings... so that they can alter the gown to ur shoe height...and really must insist that they alter.. cos i always imagine myself falling and tripping over my gown... terrible nitemares!!!
Hi cynthia..thanks for the advice... well, my pink is the very light pink... and my theme will be the darker red tones... almost like black roses.. but really dark red.. and i checked out the venue... green/blue will merged into the surrounding too... so best bet will be light colors...
oh..one more tip... check ur wedding venue surrounding... the walls, the curtains, the stage, the carpets (both the red carpet that u march in & the carpet in the area that the guest will be sitting) cos all these will also affect ur gown color choice..

and best... if u have a piece of clothing that is almost or similar color to ur gown...bring it along or wear it to check out the venue... this way, u can determine if u will merge into the surroundings..
