Picture post!

[chargirlgenius]

Eventually, I will do one more post, hopefully a sort of dress diary, with pics and explanation of the gown process. For now...



murieldechimay, please thank your apprentice for taking these with our camera! She got some good shots.



anabeig lacing my belt, just outside of court. It would have been nice to walk up fully dressed, but we just couldn't handle it.


Jeff was probably the most comfortable one all day, he got to hang out in his undies.


Pointing his doublet. I have to get a less-bulky belt.



I sewed him in, while "Master Marcel" arranged Jeff's pouffy sleeves. On the right, thornbury looks on, himself looking resplendant.


Isn't he cute?


Me and my homies. The three M's, tashadandelion (Marcele), murieldechimay (Muriel), and me (Mathile) flash our gang signs. T has actually lived in South Philly, so what she has might be real. The other M is flashing an E, for East, and I've got Atlantia covered. We're so tough.


This could have been sexy were I not sticking out my tongue. Ok. Maybe not.


Muriel and I, flanking the dashing and mysterious Master Marcel.


Waiting. One or two items of business left.


I walked Jeff "up the aisle". We've never actually been up any aisles, as we'd eloped.


The only way to get Jeff to smile for the camera is to smack his butt.


Kneeling in court.

Me, in the gown, ready to speak and give my medallion. I cut the skirt fuller than I did on my last one, to make up for the wool being lightweight. Loved it.


pinkcountess speaking for Jeff.

It's gorgeous, absolutely gorgous. And you're pretty.

Thank you. I'm so relieved that everything worked. And I can't take credit for looking good, myself. :-D

[reabhecc.livejournal.com]

I love the gang signs shot. It is awesomesauce.

[chargirlgenius.livejournal.com]

I think so too. It turned out goofy, but not stupid (in my humble uncool opinion...).

[snobahr.livejournal.com]

I agree with reabhecc, completely without reservation. Indeed, awsomesauce it is.

[silverstah.livejournal.com]

Aw, YAY!!!! All of your hard work paid off - he looks WONDERFUL.

And dude. The three 'M' photos? Y'all are so pretty. :)

[chargirlgenius.livejournal.com]

Thank you on both counts!

I have the best clothes hanger to dress. :-D

[elizabethnmafia.livejournal.com]

Both of you look awesome! I really wish we could have made it.

[chargirlgenius.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

No, you don't. Too hot. :-D

[alphasarah.livejournal.com]

1) fabulousness all 'round
2) you three crack me up.

Where. Is. My. Gratuitous. Butt. Shot??????

[chargirlgenius.livejournal.com]

And where were YOU? ;-)

[lorebubeck.livejournal.com]

I kidnapped my husband for a weekend away without children. I was keeping it a secret so I couldn't say much before hand. Unfortunately, the only weekend MiMi could watch the kids for us was the same as the Laureling. I'm terribly sorry we couldn't be there, but I KNOW you understand how important and rare a weekend with your sweetie and no kids is!

[chargirlgenius.livejournal.com]

I totally understand. Jeff will wear it again. Maybe Holiday Faire. Something cold, where we can leave the boys at home. :-D

[mikekn]

Awesome :)

Congratulations Jeff!

[belfebe.livejournal.com]

Awesome pics! You both looked fantabulous!

[duchesspadr.livejournal.com]

Wow. You guys look fantastic! And I am seriously jealous of Tasha's boy clothes.

[reabhecc.livejournal.com]

I know! I wish I had time to make some before Pennsic!

[baronessadriana.livejournal.com]

So happy for Geoffrey. So not happy that I couldn't be there. It looks like everything came together gloriously.

[math5.livejournal.com]

Y'all looked great :)
Congrats.

[salviati.livejournal.com]

The gown looked smashing! And I love the gang signs shot too. Too funny! (We have a gang sign for the CT too....)

[fiberferret.livejournal.com]

LOVE the doublet, the fabric is fabulous and the construction looks dead on. Thanks for sharing the pics.

[tashadandelion.livejournal.com]

Oh good Lord, my vanity just took a nosedive! :^0

Aside from my own visage, I think everyone else looks great. :^)

Please don't post anything on the AA with my picture though, okay? *shudder*

[chargirlgenius.livejournal.com]

Oh good Lord, my vanity just took a nosedive!

It shouldn't! I'm totally jealous of the way you look. So, if you look bad, then I....
