Oh no!!! How rude! Well everyone has there own taste I suppose, something I would hate on me can look really nice on someone else!
It would be boring if everyone was the same....

She wanted something plain. I didn't - I still love my dress, I even loved it on her!

Only caught a small bit of the show last night - have to watch it again later on iplayer to get the part where the groom picks the dress!

Mine is lace as well, and TBH i don't think its that sparkly, there is a bit of bling on it at the top but not over the top. I think it was the lace as well as the bling she hated!

I started off looking a plain dress and finished up with a really "bridal" dress!

I get my dress in June - can't wait to see it again!

Phil Collins has so many nice dressed - and very reasonable compared to some i looked at!
My dress is a super secret from everyone except MSE (alhtough - wedding posts aren't under the usual username - to keeo the details secret from people that know me on here!)

Oh that's good Lazer!

We have made a start on our invites, going to sen some out earlier than July, as OH godfather lives abroad, an 2 friends are travelling from June to September! So won't get the post until RSVP date has past.
I will be soo excited once those are in the post! :j

Our to do list is just full of the little stuff, music, readings, buy cake ingrediants etc. I am making my own cake to, the fruit is already soaking! I may try n get some little bits ticked off tonight.

I also need to phone a hairdresser n see if she can do my hair and what price. BUT I HATE phoning people, esp when it's just a mobile number got from a friend! Is it acceptable to txt?!?!
