Remember how I actually made another dress for our e-session? I teased with the fabric here, and I showed off the dress here. This is what it looks like:

Well, after realizing that my wedding dress didn’t fit, I ran to try this dress on, and well, it was just as uncomfortable as my wedding dress.

What a bummer!!! So I had to come up with a plan B, because our e-session was going to be that week!!! My MOH and I researched for something similar for a good price but had no luck. So we went to Forever 21 and found this cutie:

We had the chance to go to Vegas with a bunch of friends and on our way there, Mr. Poodle and I did some massive shopping at the malls on the way there. We got a shirt, suspenders, my belt, and supplies for the headband I wanted to make. The best part was that everything was 50% off! YAY!

So, pretty much at the last minute we ended up with this look!

I added some black plain heels and a headband to complete the look

Want a close up?

I wanted to have an excuse to make this kind of headband for a very long time! It was so much fun! I did my nails bright RED and found some cute red pearls that I made into a necklace.

So we were ready! BUT the storm came and we thought we were going to have to reschedule our e-session again. We had already rescheduled once because I got a cold sore on my lip! Not cute!

We asked our photographers if they knew of a place we could shoot indoors, and they suggested Union Station in downtown LA. We loved the idea, after all, our relationship has been based on traveling back and forth ever since we met, so it would be a perfect place to shoot!

We borrowed some vintage looking luggage from my MIL and headed down to LA. The shoot was SO MUCH FUN!! We had lots of people staring at us, but it was OK—after all, you don’t see people dressed like that being chased by photographers all the time!

We are so excited about how everything seemed to work out perfectly in the end, at the last minute.

Did weather threaten your engagement shoot? Did you shoot through inclement weather, or postpone the shoot for a sunny day?
