The intimidating part about the wedding gown is that I have to 'estimate' the length of the top layer of skirt! She had 4 layers and by the time I worked from the inside layer, out to the third layer, she got swoony and had to lie down. The outer two layers are the same length so I'm praying I can match the 4th layer to where I pinned up the 3rd layer. It's tricky getting their gowns just that perfect 1/2" off the floor so they don't step on it, without getting it too short. Too long won't work either. It takes so long to get all the layers pinned perfectly and the bride is uncomfortable, shifts around a lot, and about half of them get the swoons! It's really for the birds....
