A few months back I offered to make a friend's wedding dress to help her save money. I'm never doing it again. I was actually very pleased with how it turned out, but the pressure was too much! So, here is the one and only wedding dress I will ever make. :D

Unfortunately, I somehow missed getting shots of it from the front during the wedding. Oh well!
I will say that for as much stress it caused to make it, it was really gratifying to see how happy she was wearing it. *tear*

Yeah, the ceremony was out doors. It was way too hot to be outside the whole day. She's very much into fantasy type stuff, so that's why it's a little costumey. :)

Oh, that's BEAUTIFUL! I'm so glad you didn't have a nervous breakdown. Or much of one. I really adore the mossy brown/green part of the skirt.

Wow, that dress is amazing! I know you must have been stressed out, I made a bridesmaid dress once, and I about lost it! But you rock! Gorgeous job girl!

That dress is definitely worth all the stress and tears! She is definitely a lucky woman to have had such a great friend and dressmaker!

Aww, thanks everyone!
timidgothica - Good call! Midsummer is actually where the inspiration for the dress came from. It's based off this one: http://www.rivendellbridal.com/titania.html :D
