    codemonkey, congratulations on your dress, it is divine - in fact, I'm pretty sure it's one I tried on (are the sleeves an alteration?).
    You look beautiful, and your bottom looks perfect, not at all big!

    Awww thanks guys. I didn't want to take it off. I would have happily gone and got married with no makeup and my hair scraped back into a messy bun.

    codemonkey its lovely - and your bottie doesn't look big at all!!!!

    I was actually wondering if you were someone else as I know they are on here and they also got their dress (she was stressing for ages as it hadnt arrived) and I got sent a pic tonight and it's fab too! Happy dress smiles all round!

    Don't know if you have seen my other thread but sadly the happy dress smiles have turned into sad smiles. The other missy that got her dresses passed away very suddenly yesterday leaving behind her fiance and kiddies. I hope that he gets to see the pics of her in her dress since the light in his life has suddenly gone out :(

    I saw. I'm so sorry for your loss.

    Maybe once some time has passed and the pain has eased to something manageable, the shot of her trying on her dress will make a lovely framed photo for her family to look at and remember her when she was happy and looking forward.

    I would like to think it would be she got whoever took it to chop her head off! I only hope that there are others on her phone that she has kept and her fiance can get them off it and be proud of them.
