    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:

    Haha! :rotfl::rotfl:

    But Yes, after 4 years I would keep zipped about it! :lipsrseal:lipsrseal:lipsrseal

    Think it all depends on what the budget is for the wedding, if it's 10K+ then a grand for the dress isn't bad, but for a budget of under 5K, I'd say it was mega expensive.

    So long as a bride is happy and looks beautiful, that's all that matters and that can be done with a dress costing £2K or £200 :D

    Pythian she well had you over there love lol! Still after 4 years she's probably made up for it by doing your washing and ironing so you can't really moan.

    I guess it depends how much the dress's RRP was, and how much she managed to get knocked off! If it was an Ian Stuart or Pronovias at £2k-ish, then to pay £1k is definitely a bargain!

    Actually, I don't thing a grand is a lot depending on who the designer is and the fabric. (yes, dressmakers head on lol)
    Pythian, what a lovely thing to say!!:T
