Home Up Fittings Bridal Shower Rehearsal Getting Ready Ceremony Reception

Whoever said that Cinderella was created with a magic wand... never went to a fitting with Kari! In this case, it was the magic needle.

In the quest for perfection, we visited a few dress shops, found THE DRESS, then underwent the alterations... several times. But, IT WAS WORTH IT! A little bow here to create the bustle there... and Kari was the beautiful princess we saw.
