{Maybe not a thousand…but more than one}
Not only did Paige have the Best Party EVER!!… she was also ready to be baptized!
Something that we’ve talked about for a while was turning this:
into a super-special-baptism-dress for Paige. [try to ignore the super cheesy bridal pose]
Paige pleaded with me to not use my wedding dress, because she wants to wear it one day for her wedding. It was futile to try to explain to her that she would most likely change her mind by the time that day comes. We were able to compromise by using only the detachable train from my dress. My sister’s very talented sis-in-law, Lu, transformed it into this:
Paige felt like such a princess. She didn’t even complain about her photo shoot in 110 degrees - just smiled and kept getting sweatier. Funny how much easier that becomes when it’s all about you.
Her baptism day went nicely. Paige was thrilled and all smiles and said she “felt good” about being baptized. We had gobs of family come to support her and join us for a luncheon at our house afterwards. We’re so proud of our Paigey!

What a super cute idea with the dress. Paige looks goregous. Congrats.
I have to admit I gasped when I read you used your wedding dress, but she looks radiant! What a fabulous idea.
i was going to comment on that rockin' veil, but then i clicked on your link and realized i'd already done that. 'nuff said.
anyhoo, you couldn't have a more special baptism dress. so great. good job, mama and auntie lu!
I just love that idea and it turned out so cute! Too bad I don't have any more little girls. I think my lovely early 90's dress will be forever relegated to the back of my closet.
Wow, that dress is SO amazing! What a sweet idea. Congratulations to little Paige on her super-special day!
