Worth keeping an eye out pern, I would think the end of summer sale would be a good one - no idea when though. Have a look on ebay? I know some girls on here highly recommended some of the bms dress sellers there, so worth an ask?! We are going back to Hammonds and I am going to try and negotiate for 1 of my 3 dresses for free or at least a hefty discount. I negotiated nearly 400 quid off my dress so I bet she knows I will!

Oooo what are your invites like?!

I took a quick look but need to devote more time to it. I will be keeping my eyes peeled for what's out on the high street, & Debenhams sales as I really think this dress would suit all 4 of them which is saying something as they are all different shapes, sizes & colourings! I will try Hammonds again too & ask for a discount if I find something, I didn't bother with my dress as it was already reduced by £500 or so, which is lucky because I wouldn't have been able to afford it otherwise!

I've only ordered the pockets/invitation mats to get a view on colours to begin with, (from www.cardsandpockets.com) but I am getting my OH to get hold of photoshop for me again so I can crack on with designing the inserts as we are aiming to do the printing ourselves.

Ooh your dress looks lovely! & so does your reception venue! Very impressed I think your day is going to be amazing.

pern im sure ive seen somewhere that debenhams have a sale starting on the 9th june so maybe you'll get them cheaper.
and your dress is gorgeous.

im in a debate with myself if i should really spend £2000 on a wedding dress!!!!

Ooh thanks I will check that out, & thank you, I am feeling so much more confident now! Been looking at shoes today hehe.

Yikes that is a lot of money! But then how often do you get married? I think what you need to do is try on some others & see if you get the same (or better) feeling elsewhere, & triple check your budget to see if you can afford it! Remember if you'd budgeted say, £1500 already for the dress, but were able to make £500 savings elsewhere then you're sorted, it's whether or not you can adjust things without missing out on anything else important.

Becca, your wedding looks stunning! I have 'Pink' shoes too - I love how padded they are, I even might buy a pair and have them dyed if I ever attend anything black tie.

My dress was more than I wanted to spend but I plan to sell it afterwards and it was massively reduced

As for Debenhams, they regularly have mega day events when brands are 20% or 25% off, if you PM me the link of the dress, I can probably tell you when/if it'll go into sale.

Lovely pics Bec, especially the dress! And that venue looks lovely

I'm still in a lazy phase when it comes to wedding planning at the moment. Really bad isn't it, I just can't feel motivated

Ooh now that would be nice! The trouble is I'm not sure if it's too early to buy them as my sister is pregnant (due in August) so I don't know if she'll be back to her superskinny self by the wedding or if she'll still be carrying a bit of baby weight...hmm.
