3/10/2019 My wedding dress. How did this happen? Swipe to see photos of the process. First photo by @heidicalvert_photo Over the course of 3 years I had multiple sources of inspiration. A few months searching for perfect fabrics, appliques, rhinestones, and pearls. I must have used ten different colors of thread on the train. Then 4 months executing it. I wanted a slim dress instead of a ball gown so my petite frame didn't get drowned out by fabric. I love the look of ball gowns especially if they are covered in tulle. So I opted for a train. I have been fascinated with using dye an creating ombre effects the last several years. Every day I woke up and worked on her as much as time would allow. I did not stop. Tons of work later and abracadabra!
