    kiss_me_now9 - I agree, full white is very rude, but most peeps who wear a black dress will accessorise with coloured shoes, jewellery, pashminas, hats etc. :) Either way, I wouldn't mind if someone wore all black from top to toe, have never seen it before though!

    p.s. not engaged yet but planning your wedding is a bit weird imho :rotfl: but each to their own!!!!!! xx

  • Kiss me now lol I did the same, in fact I used to buy a wedding magazine before I was engaged! certainly came in handy when we did start planning as I knew exactly what I wanted and could source bargains!! And I also want no one in head to toe white or black, I think its rude!! And no men in jeans! Chrissy there are plasters that you can get that are totally clear but really help heal wounds, I cant remember their name but maybe check in boots or superdrug! Big hugs xxx
    Ideas,help and advice always welcome, judgements and assumptions are not!!

    I'm a bridezilla as I'm sick of being looked down on for getting our invites printed. If one more person says, oh I made them, its easy.....!

    I'd got it in my head that I wanted to make my own... until I realised how many I'd have to make and how cheap they were on ebay!!!

    :) Another case of inverse snobbery. If you don't scrimp and save every penny then your wedding isn't as good/your love isn't as deep. Crazy isn't it. It's your money spend it how you choose (but obviously get value for money). I would have loved to get our invites printed :) It would have meant I could have had white writing on red card, and card that is red on one side and white on the other - without having to stick two bits together.

    That's exactly it. We tried to make them ourselves, they looked crap, then I saw ones I fell in love with, took them to the printers for a quote - £125. No way! So went to another printers and he is doing our day invites, evening invites, table plan, place cards and order of services for £140. Bargain in my eyes.
    Plus I haven't got the time to make them so there ;) to all those people who have turned their nose up at me!
