  • I think debenhams might be your best bet or perhaps see if there is a ball gown/ prom dress hireshop in your area. TK maxx might have something but it is a bit of pot luck!
  • Definately debenhams for dresses ,you could also try coast,john lewis and M&S or go out for a saturday browsing the small boutiques near where you live for ideas.M&S have some very luxurious outfits for the party season.

  • We found Ernest Jones to be good for the range of fairly priced plain rings, and the service we got was really good, too.

    Dresses - what about M&S? Last time I was in, theri was some nice stuff in the Per Una section.

    Good luck with it all!
