Yesterday I called the Lord of the Ring wedding people and told them I was going to take the job. I know this might get a little out of control and there might be a lot of work, but I think it’ll be a good experience (not to mentioned it‘s guarantied $$$$$ and that‘s always welcomed).
They asked me to go over yesterday afternoon to show them my sketches because a few things were going to be slightly changed from the original costumes in the movies. Their whole house had a Lord of the Rings vibe. It wasn’t tacky either. I could tell that they spent a lot of time and money in order to achieve such a unique look. I got a tour of their house and learned a lot about Middle Earth. When it was done, I showed them my sketches and they approved. Before I left, the lady had one request. She said when I worked on her outfits that I should embrace my inner elf and the garment will come looking beautiful. I have absolutely no idea what that meant, and I hope that she didn’t say that because I was short. But unlike Santa’s elves, the elves in Lord of the Rings are tall. So I guess that wouldn’t make much sense.
