Viv... dear Viv!! There is no reason to “snap out of it” yet!!! Marinate in your memories and roll around in them and drench yourself in the beauty of the wedding and intoxicate your senses with the magic you witnessed!!! Don’t hurry life along: it speeds by too quickly anyway!! If you can’t function “ normally “ for several weeks, so be it!! ❣️❣️❣️

[@leeannwicker937]

I basically hate large weddings, so I enjoyed your excitement and joy over your daughter's event.

[@becky-kq2hb]

Beautiful fabric! Love your dress.

[@lorrainekempton2151]

That dress is beautiful!

[@sheilanichols3647]

Beautiful!!!! Beautiful, talented mother of the bride!

[@laurafarrer328]

Hi Viv, what an exciting time you’ve all had. I was reading the comments and simply ‘liked’ them all! Honestly, it was all there: happiness, joy and a magic fashion show! Couldn’t better any of the comments. The loving connection we all feel for you and your family is evident in every comment. Thank you for sharing. That glow is contagious , I’m definitely bathing in it! Love, Laura, Sydney, Oz 💜

[@andersonmorgan2523]

Hello Laura

[@barbaraconover5609]

I still dream about my son's wedding & events surrounding the big day! That was 2004 :) Congratulations to the newlyweds! Your chosen wardrobe was lovely, stunning, beautiful, etc! I envy your accomplishments.

[@jackienadler4648]

You look marvellous in every outfit. The wedding BOM dress is spectacular.

[@carlacolbert806]

Love the fabrics you picked out, you took basic patterns and turned them into head turner outfits. Fabulous.

[@tracyfrost]

That dress and fabric are stunning on you, well done you did well.

[@nancynord260]

Your dress is gorgeous. Imagine, you had that great fabric all along! Cool!!! You all look wonderful and so happy. I am so happy for Candace and her new husband. Thank you for sharing this happy occasion and your beautiful creations with us!

[@englishharris7679]

Dear Vivmom, you have hit it out of the park with your wedding outfits!! They are beautifully created, elegant, and much nicer than anything I've seen in the malls and dress shops. Once again, you have inspired me to continue sewing, learning, and wearing my me-mades with pride. Congratulations to you and all your loved ones on this special time in your lives!

[@joycekirsch3996]

You know how sometimes you have a day that is just blah and life is getting you down? Your videos are always uplifting and I can't be the only one that thinks so. Thank you for your happiness overflow.

[@SierraMascara28]

I agree!! ☺️

[@vickyh7881]

I agree also! I always feel good after a Viv video. And motivated to get more sewing done. I love how much Viv loves fabric!

[@wildflowerwind6941]

I feel the same way.

[@ginarydin7560]

Your productivity is amazing. Breaks are neccessary and their are time limits to our breaks. Beautiful outfits! The kimono style outfit look like a cute around the house outfit. The dress you put the band on is stunning. Your work is amazing. Keep up the good work.

[@amikrenzel5788]

The MOTB dress is beautiful!!!! I have to come up with my MOTB dress for June 2023 and I am already stressing over it. Love the other dresses as well. The black one with red roses is my favorite, such a happy fabric and love the lines of the dress. The pants suit is beautiful but I can see that it scared you as the fabric is very attention getting and you likely did not want to be in such focus. I think worn as separates it will make some amazing outfits. Congratulations on getting your daughter off to a great start in her marriage. You did an amazing amount of high end sewing for the event. Making some t-shirts might be just the thing to do some laid back relaxing sewing!!!

[@deechild4713]

Your MOB dress was a perfect match of design and fabric!! All of your wedding wardrobe was beautiful and the pink brocade was the crowning achievement. 🩷🩷🩷

[@maryhupf4915]

Congratulations to the Candance and Mike and all of their loved ones and a virtual toast for a long, happy and loving life together. What a stunning MOB!!! I took quite a while for THE day to come with all the stuff going on these last two years. So happy it was magical for you. God Bless.

I loved everything you made. My favorite of course is the dress for her big day.

[@seaside2001]

I am so glad you had a wonderful time at your daughter's wedding. Your wedding day dress is lovely and the fabric reminds me so much of the clothes my Mom made for herself in the 1970's, and there is not one thing wrong with that. You look great Viv!

[@p.j.driton4528]

Congratulations to Candice and Mike. I know she made a beautiful bride. It has been 7 years since my youngest son's wedding and I still remember it like it was yesterday. Such great memories. Hold on to them and stay in those moments as long as you want. Your wardrobe was absolutely stunning and looked great on you. You did an awesome job. Thank you for sharing them with us. Always look forward to your vlogs. You are such a ray of sunshine.

[@hollyhock4160]

It has been lovely for you to share all your fabric and patterns ideas for the wedding, ending the suspense by showing us each outfit and for what event leading up to the wedding, itself.

[@darlajackson2767]

You did a wonderful job on you Wedding attire! So glad you felt comfortable in those pieces. Now, when you are ready...sew what you want.😀

[@cboyle707]

Yayyyyy! Bravo. Fabulous. Okay? Super!

[@Eileenford]

absolutely stunning. I love the MOB dress and the fabrics and patterns are 100%.

[@sharonwinter4004]

I know exactly what you mean, I felt like that when my daughter got married. she was a vision of beauty and I felt so proud to be her mum as I know her dad felt the same. it has been three years now and I don't know where that time has gone. the fabric you chose couldn't have been more perfect, its funny that we all go looking for that special fabric not thinking that we may already have it sitting waiting for us to see it. congrats to your daughter and her husband on their marriage and also to you and your family gaining an obviously great son in law.

[@andersonmorgan2523]

Hello

[@cindygrenier4433]

Gorgeous! Love the dress you made as mother of the bride

[@sharronwolfe7711]

Oh so beautiful! And I can tell you’re still on Cloud 9! So happy for Candace and Mike and all of your family and friends! My favorite of the outfits you made for yourself is, of course, the MOTB dress! So beautiful! The fabric is out of this world! Just gorgeous! And the others were also gorgeous! You really nailed it here! So happy for your entire family and especially Candace and Mike! May the Lord richly blessed them and may they have many years of happiness! 🙏🏻❤️

[@andersonmorgan2523]

Hello Sharron how are you doing?

[@theresasmith1000]

Everything was so perfect!!! Do not snap out of it!! Thanks for sharing all of it with us!!!

[@anneworthington1702]

Wow, I love all your makes but your Mother of the Bride outfit is beautiful. I have already made 3 versions of this pattern in viscose and cotton but you have definitely inspired me to try it in a better fabric. I don’t expect to find anything as gorgeous as yours though!

[@andersonmorgan2523]

Hello Anne

[@cindygrenier4433]

Loved all the dresses you made for the rehearsal dinner and showers but absolutely loved the dress you made for the wedding! simply gorgeous!

[@gillianbrown4913]

Great outfits Viv. Glad the wedding all went so well.

[@sherrelstroot3034]

Best Wishes for Candace and congratulations to the groom. I am so glad that the wedding was " magical " for all. Your dresses are lovely.

[@ritacamarsh2553]

Lovely outfits. I’m happy it was a wonderful day.

[@nancyhelpinstill1834]

You know, after looking at it again, I think the reason the “reject” outfit didn’t work for you is the fabric. If the print had been reversed - white flowers on pink BG - it probably would have. You look so good in bright colors. I love the idea of wearing the top as a jacket over jeans. If you wore a pink top under it, that would bring the color up to your face. Fabulous! And for a beach party, wear those pants with a pink cami! It would be a knockout!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@andersonmorgan2523]

Love the dresses! And LOVE that you had your shoulders and arms out on the day! Gorgeous!!! Congratulations to the newlyweds and the whole family. Very special time. :)

[@sonialorenzo9223]

Love all your outfits and the confidence you showed sewing all your outfits. This is is something for me to think about as many times I do not trust myself with my sewing skills and it’s keeping me from enjoying it. You took the patterns you trusted and loved and it served you well.

[@andersonmorgan2523]

Hello how are you doing?
