Oh those shoes are lovely.

Only just over a year to go- can you imagine how excited we will be feeling this time next year!!

Oh and natalie, you know yesterday we were discussing how careful we will have to be next year not to get the sun on out top halfs/ arms- well ive discovered its just as well I have a full length dress as I live in leggings- and currently have really dodgy leggings marks on my legs!! ! (luckily they are faint but I wouldnt be suprised if they get worst/ I get them again next year!!

MrsDrink

Hahahaaaaa @ legging marks!!

Do you know what I thought today as a little girl was swinging her legs and accidently kicking me... I'm glad I'm going for a tea-length rather than knee length dress cause all my bruises should be hidden Lol!

PinkPrincess83

Oh I hadnt even thought about bruises! Im just going to wrap myself in cotton wool a month before the wedding!!

laurarobby

im always covered in bruises good job ill be having a full length dress and ill have to get a decent strapless bra and wear strapless tops while out in th few months running up to july! i catch the sun so easily. lol x

MrsDrink

The bridal shop I'm getting my dress from says I won't need a bra under my dress... lol I'll believe it when I see it!! (Thanks to yoyo dieting they are like water balloons - lol they'd be pert if the breast tissue was still attached to my pec muscles lol).

PinkPrincess83

LauraR- so do I, and when I do it really lasts so Im really this summers dodgy strap marks have fully blended in by then!!

Natalie- it sounds like shop do really know there stuff so you may be suprised!! I do wonder if I could get away with no bra as the corset in mine seemed really good when I tried it on but part of mt thinks I would better with a bra on aswell incase I somehow manage to fall out or something!!!:rotfl:

Oh LauraR- Its due day today isnt it?

laurarobby

yup today is due date!!! and yup im still bloody here!!!!! not impressed with the little bundle.... but his brother was late and if he is anything like his dad i have no chance they will be dragging him out!! lol x

Just wanted to let you all know that the correct dress has arrived!!! All smiles now, but do look a little like a lobster at the moment following my day out at Thorpe Park yesterday

The wrong dress has been returned, and I'm all happy now. Just need to get the dress home - I work in London and train and tube it - should be alright have done some crazy thing with string to enable me to carry it.

Must get on, first year assessment board tomorrow

MrsDrink

Lol LauraR you do realise we're expecting hourly check ins so we know you're not off having Bundle Number 2

Michelle - great news about your dress. Have you tried it on yet? Is it as perfect as you remember?

Well I'm being very OCDy - I have my third set of balloons here - they are close enough on the colour but the finish of the balloons just isn't right. I've emailed the company to ask if they have any matt pearlised balloons or are all there burgundy pearlised balloons infact metallic ones. Fingers crossed they have - and I can just swap them - other wise it *may* be back to the drawing board to buy another batch of 100 balloons. (Lol not that I'm being a bridezilla over this at all you understand). My table runner came today - it's perfect. And so is my wired ribbon for tying round the chair backs with the gerberas a-la- that photo I shared before.

Right off to go stare at photos of my dress before MrD comes home lol.

Hi Natalie, I don't think my colleagues would have appreciated the fashion show, it's still as lovely as I remember it, and because it's come straight from Monsoon and not been in a shop the embroidery is still perfect - the one in the shop had a pull in it.
