Stress level: highish

I still have not had my first fitting for this wedding dress. (You need at least three before they get it perfect.) They keep promising they'll do it, but they've put me off for weeks, and I am therefore Worried, since their promises don't mean anything.

Of course, worst case scenario is that I don't have a long white gown, and I end up wearing a chic cocktail dress. The conservatives will be Shocked, but then again, they always are.

Plus there will still be cake.

In slightly more amusing news, I went out looking for a corset the other day, and as soon as I walked in and asked if they had any in my size, this was the dialogue:

"Yes, we have that size. When are you getting married?"
"Whoa... I'm not even wearing my ring, how did you know I was getting married?"
"No one ever wears a corset unless she's getting married. They're too uncomfortable."

Sounds like you might want to consider ramping up to a more extreme level of bitch mode with your alterations person. This sounds totally unacceptable.

Yeah, given how soon it is, I'd say it might be time to pour on the not-charm.

Heheh, I suppose that they don't get too many customers interested in reviving Victorian fashions...

i guess it was because you're a girl.

Some people wear corsets as fetishwear... Or just for the fun of it. I've been thinking of getting one just 'cause they're pretty. And I already have a bustier. So... they can take that!

Getting married or going to a ren fair. There are a few other reasons people use them. I think we have a couple among our Bethans costumes, but you can't lace them up too tight if you need to sing...
