So, when I got married, it only took one trip to a bridal shop to realize that I wouldn't be happy with any dress I would find. So, I decided to design my own and found an excellent seamstress to make my vision a reality. The goal was to design something simple, elegant, unique, and modest enough to wear in the temple without having to use any extra coverings. It was my first attempt at textile design. I have designed a few other things but don't have the sewing skills to bring them to fruition. I plan to learn pattern design so that I can start making the things I design. These are the design drawings I made to give to the seamstress and some wedding photos of the actual dress. It is made of white velvet.

You are a classic beauty. I loved your dress too, but I didn't know you had designed! More impressed by you all the time~
I wish we could relive all of our wedding days. You looked georgeous and I am jealous of your dress. Yours turned out so much better than mine. I should have had you make some drawings for me to show the seamstress because she just didn't grasp what I wanted.
Stunning, very beautiful.. I loved the first picture, are those all your sisters? Everyone is so beautiful and cute, just love it.
You just wow me all the time your dress is so beautiful what a great design. I also loved the first picture it is so cool to see everyone in black and you in white it just really stands out and looks great!
While I am of course amazed by your talents, I also just wanted to comment about the picture of all of us. It just makes me happy! Even though I look kind of dorky in it, I love how we are all just laughing and look so truly happy, and you can tell how we just love each other and that you are all my best-friends. My gosh, I wish I could live close to you all and have more days of together!

Jenny,
I don't know why I don't remember this. Your dress is absolutely stunning. Seriously. I don't give compliments unless I really think them.
