The Design of a Custom Wedding Dress

My Bride Kira:  It all started with a Barbie Holiday Christmas Ornament..... this was the design she wanted for her wedding dress top center... This was an example of the front of the skirt under the ruffles this was an example of the fullness she wanted and lace this was an example of the laced up back with ribbon and tie This was an example of the ruffles on the dress skirt This was an example of the train and lace this was an example of the veil.  We went shopping and found bridal satin and a beautiful embroidered lace... and the project began!
