Jaime added: “We had the slip dress and lace overlay hemmed from floor-length to hit just above my knees, in a high-low fashion. We just made a few adjustments to the slip dress to make sure it fit like a glove, fixed one button on the back that had fallen off, and removed some additional beading that was on the bottom.

“My dad was emotional seeing me in the dress that his wife had worn on their wedding day. It was really sweet.”

For her actual wedding dress she had a simple gown made with silk crepe, thin straps, and a low back.
