    Hi Sam10 and Popsicle, and welcome!You have been duly added to the list.

    So I have a few piccies of me in my dress - these were taken not long after I bought the dress, so the dress still hasn't been fitted yet. I've cut my head off as I look god awful and not bridal at all lol. Let's hope this works. Please let me know what you guys think!

    Oh poocakes, I can't get them on here :(

    You all seem sooo organised - it feels like I've still got everything to do!

    I have managed to get my dress (Charlotte Balbier - should have been £1,200! Gulp!), tiara, veil and undies from a shop called 'Thomas Tucker' in Exmouth (for all you Devon brides) - all for £301!!!. It's closing down it's wedding department - and they've still got loads of bargain dresses and Amanda Wyatt tiaras for £15-20! Lots of bargain rainbow club shoes too.
  • Hi everyone hope all is coming to plan x

    I know this might be a bit off topic but does anyone know if you can tell if a member of this site as been online recently or not?? All it is was that someone was selling lots of things which I have snapped up and Ive not heard a word from them since exchanging addresses :( I know I should have more faith but I'm getting a little worried :(
    Got married on 1st August :beer:

    thank you to everyone on the weddings and anniversary forum xxx
