those things run about 2 sizes smaller than your normal dress size... man!!!


I have been actually contiplating this point for the next UTTD if I want to be a photog, or a model... I never got any bridals or real wedding portraits for my March wedding! we hit a huge snag in our wedding budget, they were called twins....lol of course the dress is not that extravegant either, very simple... hubby prommised me on our 10 year we were going to redo the whole thing int he tradition irish wedding tradition!

so friend stepped up and did some shots for us with her P & S at least I got pics of the event and they were really nice.. she put them in an album and everything for me...

Yea, but the ball gowns can usually fit the next size up in them. So, were you planning on wearing them and shooting yourself? lol. Self portrait TTD?

I think Holly could sell this for those of us that were hoping the 10th ann would give us the "rest of the wedding". I told my husband on our 10th we were going on our honeymoon...I was at one month in a 3 1/2 month complete bed rest stint with #4...the other 3 were still home..(3,3 and 2). This year is #20...and we hoping for Hawaii...maybe I should get one of Holly's dresses???

haha... oh but we have the 4 kids... Girls (my step daughters) are 11 and 8...
and the boys are 4 and hubby had the V we are so done with kids!!!!

this is only our 4 year anni so we still have 6 years to save and plan!!!!

I have a girlfriend that needs a size 0 for a trash session with me. . . we keep looking at thrift stores and such. . . no luck. maybe a 2 could work, but it would have to be taken in. . . I KNOW SKINNY B****! But I still love her anyway. . .

[HotHolly]

wedding gowns typically run 2 sizes larger than the size you wear. She could probably make do with a 6 or small 8. I know that sounds nuts, but the sizing charts on wedding gowns seem to be made to make you feel fat. Nice, right?

[PhotosbyHollyWood]

Hey HOlly I think we totally confussed them,... lol


I said earlier that they run about 2 sizes SMALLER then normal sizes and you just said 2 sizes LARGER!

so if I may clarify!... lol..... a wedding dress size 8 will fit your typical size 6 woman in daily clothes sizes! there I think that says it... cause that almost confussed and I know what I was saying.... lol

[HotHolly]

lol. too much holly in one thread.
