    Tenth Anniversary
    That's a gorgeous dress Laura!

    The bridesmaid's dress is lovely too. I got my bridesmaids' dresses from BHS. They're from the Fuschia range. I got all of their shoes from there too. They're really pleased with them! :)

    Cool, I asked my BM to check out the shoes and see if there were any in there she like the look of. It would be easy if she did then the colours are more likely to match up :)

    Thanks for comment on dress :)

    Double yay for both of you!

    I have ordered BM dress and matching stole. Might have found a makeup artist and hairdresser for the day
    and have ordered fabric samples from http://www.wraporshrug.co.uk/ to see about a matching wrap/stole thingy.

    I don't feel organised... I feel like I'm panicking! :p But everyone keeps telling me I'm organised so I must be... either that or I panic in a very organised fashion :rotfl:

    The dress doesn't need taking in (or out :rotfl:) so all I need is the length altered and a bustle put on for the evening. Ooh and their alterations charges have gone DOWN since I bought the dress. :T

    Went into Moss Bros with DF today and decided on colours of waistcoats etc. DF thought he wanted a tie but has now deceided to have a cravat, and he will have purple cravat with silvery waistcoat and others will have purple waistcoat and purple cravat. The thinking behind this is that we are both paler with purple accents and bridesmaid/ushers, bestman etc are more purple... well that's the thinking :)
