    Well productive day today, ordered my dress this morning!! Should be here in October...best start the diet!! I would put a pic on here, but OH floats around on here too so don't want to chance him stumbling across it!! All i'll say is it's a Maggie, and cheaper than i expected. However, there are alteration costs, veil, tiara, hoop so i'm sure the cost will creep up!!

    Also, this afternoon we went and gave our notice of marriage...it's all real now!! lol :j
    Don't let your fears stand in the way of your dreams. :A

    We can't give notice until July 5th because our nearest office is only open mornings and I'm working all the ones they are free! Still only a couple of weeks though!

    hi umbrafeles iv gone with a mori lee 2189 wont be here till at least december and got £250 knocked off with free alterations i am one happy girl lol. unfortunatly the pictures on the internet do the dress no justice. being a newbie it wont let me post a picture but if anyone has the time to google it please let me know what you think.

    also iv gone for a darker shade pink bridesmaid dresses and at the moment they are in bhs and i paid £28 each they are beautiful satin and below knee length, they are £31.50 online and the name is sophie grey corsage dress they also look so much nicer than the picture and a bargain for people on a budget x
