  • Woo hoo that's loads of good dress news this weekend ladies excellent!!

    Natc delighted for you and WHAT a bargain!! What's for you wont' go by you eh?! Excellent!!! Any piccies?!?!

    Fawny dress is looking fab how exciting seeing it stage by stage as well :)

    Roz love the weekly plan!! You'll get all that done in no time. As for cake so far have munched the fruit and it's nice...but I'm not big on fruit so will just get some cutting cake for the buffet I think :)

    Ghawdon I am the same I have 1stone to my goal and my motivation is low as I'm following the ww plan and going to the gym 3 times a week and it's still not shifting...just trying to stay calm as dress looks ok and just think you won't know anyone but your HUSBAND on honeymoon and he loves you regardless :)

    We were supposed to go to a hotel for a night today and relax and NOT speak about wedding...however my cat was poorly this morning so we postponed and I flung myself into wedding things....so our inserts for invites are now done, envelopes for thank you cards purchased, little slips for invites typed up too. So my bridesmaids are booked to come and stick invites together early May so feel like they are pretty much finished. Bar actually writing names and addresses which I am dreading...don't even have addresses!! How are you guys approaching this?!

    xxxxx
    What's fur ye won't go by ye!

    You could do a facebook or message thing for people to give their addresses. I've collected everyones address over the years and everyone knows someone so those I didn't have I pinched off them! Some we hand delivered and for some family who live in Wales, we sent aout 6 or 7 to one address as they see each other regularly and it saved on the individual stamps!
    Married my wonderful husband on 8/9/12 :j

    Nat that's fantastic news, so happy for you :) and what a bargain!! When you tried the dress on, did you just "know"? I'm going to go to a dress shop next Sat and try a few on that are more like what I thought I'd have, so we'll see what happens...

    Thank you! Well, actually I didnt immediately feel like it is the one. I really liked it, and i think it is because the front isnt exactly as id have liked, but I loved the rest of it, the back of it especially. But it doesnt have a corset back which i would have liked and it doesnt have the sweetheart neckline which i really wanted, but im getting that changed, it really fits in with my afternoon tea, and for the church, and the more I had it on, the more and more i loved it! Its like it grew on me the more i wore it! And with it being a bargain, i just couldnt leave it there! The material is probably more than that!

    Oh yes. Thank you.
    Congratulations Natalie! You know I logged on this morning, saw the last post was from you, and thought, late on Saturday night, she must have gone shopping, hope she got her dress! I am really pleased as it is such an important thing to get right. What's it like, you can tell us, please!!!??
    LOL!:rotfl:Thanks

    Im going to post pics now and you all may just think eurrgh! :eek:

    Sorry if the pics are big, i can never remember how to post them properly!

    This last pic is one I have changed in Paint to show a sweetheat neckline and i think it looks loads nicer.
