    As promised :)

    (I have undone the posy and they are now all loose again... I didn't want them to get scrunched up for so long that come July next year they are all squished - so now they are sat in a vase - lol far too tall for the vase. I'm going to have to create a little space in my office for all these weddingy things!)

    I *think* I used 20 flowers in this posy. I kinda like the unsymmetricalness of it - which is soooo not like me! I think it looks a bit more natural and a bit more 'free' if that makes sense. :)
    This is made with the white flowers. I have got ivory ones just incase I get an ivory dress. (The actual posy has cost me £37.39... On silkweddingdesigns they sell one for £37.49, I*think* it's the same number of flowers but not sure).

    I would say if you were going to buy off them - go via their ebay shop for the protection :) Oh and I've just noticed the colour is so close to the red of the invites it's a great match!! :)

    Lol bless you Emma, I'd be having a hissyfit if I had a dress and couldn't see it when I wanted to. Lol I'm so jealous of you lot that have your dresses!!
  • What is the ebay shop called? Thats really good that they match your invites.

    Well I wasnt meant to be peeking so was having a sneak peek!! I have plenty of time to have more peeks!!

    Silkweddingdesigns :) The more I look at them the happier I am with them. Now I just need to find a dress so I know whether I'll be using white or ivory ones! (I can then sell on the others!) :) (Begin to recoup back some of the costs lol)

    Plus I also started to look at having real flower bouquets today. Still not sure if I am going for real or fake ones. I want to have rose posies.

    how is everyone?

    I love that bra Tracey - have you tried it on and jumped up and down then bent in half and wiggled and been amazed at the fact your boobs stay in place? I am hoping that when I've shedding this extra bit of weight I'm carrying that I will be able to squeeze into an F cup (the largest they do - which is a cup too small at the moment). I am jealous cause when I tried it on it really was a fab bra! (Lol I'm the MrsDrink that wrote the 'gutted' feedback on debenhams! Lol I get everywhere!)

    Your shoes look fab too - and I like the sneaky little bit of platform on the toes as well.

    I've been to the In-Laws-To-Be tonight (without MrD - he's still away) and have subtly (ha - not at all subtly really) asked them to chat to MrD about who he would like to invite to the party from his family. His mum is fab and is going to 'sit him down' lol. :) So I'll be able to plan a bit more accurately when I know the numbers!
