Welcome tleef and Mickey79sf!Shan- I have not tried Spanx but I understand they are super spandex. I was referred to Soma Intimates (a division of Chico's) for garments with some sucking power but with less super spandex injury potential. I eventually chose the Merry Modes slip and never even tried Soma.My wedding is coming up VERY fast! This Friday is my last day in my current job and I will be starting the new job 3/10, working for two weeks, then taking three weeks off (one before the wedding and two after for the honeymoon). Insanity!!! Right now, I am trying to create placecards and avoid maiming a particularly annoying coworker before the end of the week...Wish me luck! Tomorrow night is my first fitting with the seamstress. That dress better fit!
I gave my mom free reign to put together goodie bags for the travelling guests. She's having a blast, but I think the gift bag budget has been tripled by now. Gotta love her!
