First "Fitting Party"

Miss J here, is the only one wearing a petticoat underneath, so I enlarged her pic to give a true idea of what the finished product will look like. So fun!!!




Working on the centerpieces, below.





The flowers, below, will go on each girls' pair of shoes, so as to give the appearance of them all matching.

    Everything looks so amazing. The dresses are beautiful and I love the centerpieces.

    The shoe idea is great ~ how nice that each of them gets shoes they're comfortable with. The flower is the perfect "tie them all together" touch!

    Great job Mary Lou-everything is coming together very well. The dresses are elegantly simple and the flowers on the shoes are a super idea! All of your pitchers came out perfectly and the pearls on the plate are a nice touch. I did enlarge the pictures just to make sure all of the candy was still intact...LOL! Great restraint. I looked back on your posts and couldn't see if you said when the wedding would be. And what is the MOTB wearing?
    Thanks for sharing your progress with us-it's been fun to foloow!
    xoxo

    Oh my gosh, Mary Lou, I am loving all these fabulous details. The dresses are beyond beautiful - the color, the style, the lovely fit on each of the girls! They look like Barbie dolls.

    And the centerpieces are awesome. Love the pearls on the plates underneath the pitchers. So simple and elegant.

    Lastly, I love those flowers on the shoes too. I'm having so much fun watching you girls plan this wedding from afar! Thanks for sharing. xo
