Actually during the first fitting, I had chosen a ROM gown. But after I went back , I started to regret because the cost of rental didnt really match the value of the gown. It was much too long for me and I felt I looked quite matured in that gown. I think there wasnt much of a choice and I was too happy trying on and made a very hasty decision. Then on the day before the second fitting, I found a very nice ROM gown which I liked a lot and I felt that it was really way much nicer and cheaper than the cost of renting the other gown! The best was I get to buy and keep it because I found it in a specialty gowns store!! I pleaded with the sales person to reserve it for me as I wanted to try it on for Jay and then I sent a pic of me in that gown (heehee.. I secretly took a pic in the dressing room :p) to him and one of my bridesmaids for discussion. The sales person kindly agreed as she told me that that they carried only 2 gowns per size and that gown was the last piece!! I immediately knew that the gown was made for me!! Hahahahaha. But to avoid making a rash decision, I decided to go back the next day with Jay. I had to cancel my rental of the gown at my bridal studio too. So there would be neogotiations required. I wasn't 100% confident that they would be willing to cancel the rental.
The next day, I made my decision to buy the gown with Jay's support! We agreed that the gown was really much better and value for money! So we went to the bridal studio and I told my co-ordinator about it. She was very kind and requested to take a look at my gown. She commented that it was really nice and said that she would wish for me to get something that I really liked too! =) That was very nice of her! So the deposit for my gown went to Jay's suit instead. Phew!
Anyway we managed to choose Jay's suit and my outdoor photoshoot gown as well. Cant wait for the photoshoot!!
