Wedding dress woes :(............

Its gorgeous - don't involve them in your dress shopping....if it feels like "the one" then go for it!

I like it too, you couldn't wear it with a big tum so I don't know what they are talking about myself.
I agree it needs accessories to balance out the top and a jacket/bolero would be ideal.

You look really lovely, why not tell your family that you have picked a dress and you're not going to be revealing any details of it, it's a surprise for everyone then! (The biggest surprise is that they have already seen it but will have probably forgotten on the day and you can have a little smug chuckle at them!)

You look beautiful in the dress and I think it may well be The One! I'd be tempted to tell your family that you're keeping the dress a secret so they can be surprised on the day, that way you'll have no scrunchy noses sewing the seeds of doubt to deal with! I think it will look lovely with a little bolero too.

We all think you look amazing so that should be enough to shut your family up! I agree that your best friend should be promoted to MOH!

Hey everyone,

It's taken me a few days to come back to the thread it filled with responses and I have been scared to look ..................

I swear I am going mad :rotfl:

I think after the response I got off my family I expected you all to say the same.
I'm so happy that you haven't I can't believe how nice you have all been and I have shed a few tears about it actually.:o

I think I shall go for this dress for my day there are however very few stockists around here so I did also post on the find my dress thread and the guys there are keeping an eye out for me.

Feel really excited about it

Let me lay some facts down first.

I'm a 6'2" 18stone bloke who likes football, rugby and martial arts. Although I am by no means 'hard' i can handle myself due to martial arts training. I drink , quite a lot, play poker online and like a flutter or two on the horses. In short I am a blokey bloke, an alpha male. a meat eater.

Now for my point .....that dress is BLOODY GORGEOUS GIRL!!!!!!! and don't let anyone tell you any different. You wear what you feel good in. I will absolutely guarantee that if you listen to the others who are putting you off you will be full of regret. SO WHAT if it's £1000...that aint much for a wedding dress....and it's YOUR day.

Aww, bless you, what a lovely post!!

See Poppy, even blokes think it's gorgeous, so take no notice of your family!

Phythian, I will disagree with you on one point though, £1000 is a LOT for a wedding dress :eek::D

Right!....the wife has scammed me..... She paid over a grand and said it was a bargain.....actually she looked fantastic so I couldn't care less what it cost but I thinkI'll have a few words when I get home. After 4 years, is it too late to tell her I know her little ruse??


OMG!!!! How many more times has she done this:rotfl::rotfl::eek:
