No one to help lace my dress.

What do you mean? what happened to whoever would normally do it

Do you have bridesmaids or family that can get ready with you or help you get ready?

View Quoted Comment We're only having 5 people. The woman who runs the cottage doesn't feel comfortable doing it and everyone else is out of state. I'm so over all of this.

I'm sorry! I had a corset back and needed help getting into the dress. It ended up being my day of coordinator, actually because she had experience doing the lacing. Are there any female relatives/ others who could help? I'm sure they would be honored if you approached them.

Everyone is out of state. I'll have to think of something. I tried to do it but I can't get it tight enough. I had my sons try and they couldn't do it either.

So no one attending the wedding can help?

Are you having a photographer? Or hair and makeup. I would try one of them to help maybe?

View Quoted Comment Is just me and my three sons. Everyone else is out of state.

Maybe you can rig something so you or the boys can get it tight enough? Or maybe you can mostly lace it and wriggle into it? Ugh, I'm sorry. Are you having a make up lady who might be able to help?

Officiant? Photographer? If there are no other vendors or invited guests who can help, is there someone else local who could come by to help? Can you alter the dress to a zipper instead of corset? You say everyone is out of state so I’m guessing you’re either having a destination wedding or doing a live stream. Sorry for the trouble, hope you figure it out soon.

Aww I'm sorry, I hope you all can figure it out

I’m sorry i’m just a little confused. why can’t they help if they are out of state?

Would you be open to having your sons do it (albeit imperfectly), then doing a first look with your hubby and having him fix it after?

View Quoted Comment They are in a different state than me. We're not getting married near anyone.

I hope you can find someone. Your dress is so beautiful.
