I am CELEBRATING! The three DIY weddings are over! I'm thrilled for the marriages of my kids, but glad I'm at this end of the work. Here are the 3 DIY Wedding dresses. Luckily, I didn't have to sew all three. I sewed 2, which wasn't so bad, except, they were customized patterns, and you know, for the timing of 2 months to do both. Thank goodness they were simple. (Well, that was after I vetoed trying to make a Vera Wang number for wedding #2.) 

Here's wedding #3 dress and couple.

Wow!! I knew you made Jessie's dress, but didn't know about the other 2! They are all really pretty dresses, and all the brides looked amazing! I bet it took a lot of patience and work and talent to do them all in so little amount of time!

Carolina, just wanted to clarify that I only made 2 of the dresses. That was enough for me. The last one was made by her Grandmother. I'm glad I learned to sew as a girl, it's been a life saver. And it's fun to see how the girls chose different styles.

Dacia, they are all happy! Very lucky.
