This past weekend I was fortunate enough to see my daughter in her wedding gown. The gown was not quite finished, but she was very beautiful in it. As a father, I am slightly biased when it comes to how beautiful I think my daughter is, but I’m sure most will agree when they see her on her wedding day.
The exceptional part of this, is that the gown is being made by my oldest daughter. We all like to tease her on how long it takes her to finish this project or that project, but we don’t usually complain about the work done. The gown looks to be almost a work of art. I’ll know more when it is finished.
Well this is the third wedding out of four daughters. I do hope the youngest waits a few years (more than 2+). My oldest and her husband are celebrating their 3rd anniversary tomorrow, so in just over a 3 year span, I’ve been or will be the father of 3 brides. I’m wondering if they can think of any other way to torment me. 😉
Count down in earnest.
Father of the Bride III? I bet the dress IS a work of art.
Excited to see it!
If any post deserves a picture, this is the one! Though I understand if you want to wait until *after* the wedding. 🙂
As the oldest daughter who made the dress, I will state that this is definitely the easiest wedding dress I have ever done (out of two, so there you go). It helps that the sister/bride in question wanted something very simple; however, finding a pattern that matched Mara Jade’s wedding dress do\id take 6 hours, 4 pattern sites, and three JoAnn’s stores. Who is Mara Jade? The girl Luke Skywalker married. This is the Star Wars sister, you know. 🙂
