    Wow! What a great win, congratulations!!

    I'm sure I read somewhere that wedding comps are 'easier' to win, as less people enter on a whole. That being said, I've entered every one I can find over the last year with no wins! Glad to see someone on these forums having some luck though!

    I think they are easier to win, I've won 3 in the last 13 months, and I never won any kind of competition before that! I won craft fair tickets, Wii Fit game, and £250 Vivian of Holloway vouchers. Nothing as big as this though!

    Ooh, lucky you!! Congrats; I hope you can get it in time!! I've entered every wedding comp I could find over the last three years (including this one lol) and never won anything! My only wins have been non-wedding ones.

    You could always sell it if it doesn't come in on time. That's what I would do.

    I entered that competiton too, well done on winning! It's nice to know that people actually do win these amazing prizes! Which dress have you won or do you get to choose?
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!
