My Cousin Intentionally Sewed My Wedding Dress 2 Sizes Smaller
She Was Shocked When She Saw What I Did with It
When my cousin Sarah offered to sew my wedding dress, I was thrilled — despite our complicated relationship, she was talented, and the gesture felt special. Weeks of planning and fittings went smoothly… until the final fitting. The dress was two sizes too small.
Sarah shrugged it off with a fake smile and a mocking comment. It wasn’t an accident — I realized she’d sabotaged it. Panicked but determined, I took the dress to Mrs. Lawson, a retired seamstress. Together, we transformed it into a bold, chic, cocktail-style gown that was completely “me.”
On the wedding day, I walked down the aisle glowing. Heads turned, Michael’s eyes widened, and Sarah’s smugness vanished. Her sabotage had backfired — my dress stole the show, and I felt beautiful, confident, and triumphant.
Sometimes, when people try to hold you back, you just have to rewrite the rules… and the dress.
