Wearing Glasses on my wedding day

My OH actually told me to 'please wear your normal glasses' apparently I don't look like 'me' without them!

Have you tried asda opticians?they have some lovely frames,great offer on aswell.2 designer pair with all treatment,including indexing for round a hundred quid.i got very pale bronze with fancy sides for every day and a shiny pinky/lilacy pair with just the bottom rimless if you know what i mean.i also get my contacts from there and they are sooo cheap compared to everybody else.great staff aswell.if you ask the girls they should get other frames out for you if you dont see what you like.

How about a rimless frame?

These are white and sparkly, and wont take over your face in the photos either. Whichever pair you choose, make sure you get a anti-reflective coating on them, otherwise in pictures you wont see your eyes through the lenses and camera flashes will bounce off them.

I have a barely there prescription, went to ASDA and got two pairs of designer frames for about £70, one for night driving with anti reflective coating and the other for reading, they have some decent frames and they are not pushy like some opticians (D & A) who tried to get me to paret with best part of £500 for one pair!!!

As I have only worn them about three times each even the Asda glasses are expensive for me but if you wear them all the time you will get value from them.

You can also ask the wedding photographer to take pics with and without glasses and pick the one's you prefer...

Hi,

I asked our buyer here to recommend some pairs for you that matched your criteria.
However I understand it could be seen as 'touting for business' which is against the boards rules and which I don't want to do. (see the signature below)

So if you want me to send the suggestions through to you Private Message me and I'll send them.

Hopefully that way I can help out with the specific request, without spamming everyone or 'touting'!

Let me know if that sounds OK. And congratulations/good luck!
