    Hi Birdie

    Love the DOTD - very romantic. What site did you find it on, please? haven't looked at dresses for a while so might want to pretend we are planning the wedding anytime soon.....eventhough OH's car has had other ideas and died today!!!

    And Flower - I hope the accomodation problem for Barcelona is sorted soon. If the person has several places in the area couldn't she put you somewhere else or get in contact with someone she knows who also does accomodation. If it was double booked then I assume she accepted your booking aswell as another one so it's her fault? xx

    OH told me to just order them, I'm not quite sure what's going on! I think he just wants me to do something with regards to the wedding and he's quite happy that a dress isn't going to cost us £1k! Now I just have to find someone who'll actually send the dresses to me in England!

    Oooh, just browsing the site with the Caribbean print dress and found this:

    Purty! I want a really bright dress for our reception, even though it'll be in February and freezing! OH and his friends will all be in really garish shirts so I have to put up a good fight!

    Just one thing about ordering the dress now Birdie, the dress is stunning, but you're planning to loose over a stone, will you be the same size next year?

    The dress is by Bari Jay (barijay.com), I don't even know if it is a genuine bridal collection, I guess it must be because the collection is called 'White' but they're all quite simple dresses, the designer's mission statement is all about value! Cor, I was just having a look about on their website and saw this one! Maybe a little *too* garish!

    I'll probably get it slightly small and check that it can be altered. I won't order it for a while but at least I know what I want and I'm going to figure out where I can get it from since it'll be pretty difficult finding a shop who'll actually post it out to me!

    Note: If I lose a stone my clothes will be loose! I can be a spelling freak sometimes and that's been annoying me for a while! :p

    The prices aren't on that site, like all bloomin' bridal sites (it's so freakin' annoying! How can you decide which dress is The One when you don't know how expensive it is!).

    I found prices on this website- loads of nice dresses on here! http://www.blossomsdress.com/sub.php?CatId=27194&Page=CatOv#subtitle
