funnily enough the one I would have bought from the shop in Bletchley which specialises in plus sizes is champagne (although I was going to order it in black with a wine coloured bridal coat), but it is quite similar. Really hope it is ok, I know then I have at least got a dress for each ceremony and I can then concentrate on getting the bridal coat (or 'coats' as it will now be :rotfl: ) sorted!

This is the one I have bought

and as long as the ivory one for my registry office comes ok (to go over a sage coloured dress) I am going to get a second one of these

in chocolate or wine.

My biggest fear is that the coat won't have the shape it should have - the one I tried on gave me a lovely shape - the way the one in the photo is cut - but it is whether it comes out like that when it is one made by a chinese ebay seller....if it is too big, I have worked out how to add lace up corsetry ribbons down the back of it so I do have a bit of a plan!

Free day today: so off to gym. Have a power plate session n then swimming I think.

Just found out OH has to work on Sunday, so while I was planning one free day I now have 2! N barely enough to fill 1...

Well I had a nice day shopping today... But my OH is still at work, and I am home lonely!

I did get some wedding bits, some underwear in Debenhams. I got 2 pairs of ivory knickers for £10. Thy are a slightly different cut, so just have to decide which ones to wear... One has a seam up the back, which may be quite annoying :rotfl:

Also picked up presents for OH to cheer him up. I have wrapped it and everything! He just needs to come home...

Ooh, exciting, I can't wait to get my dress, but I think it'll be a while yet! One of my BM's tried on the sample dress, she loves it so I think that's the one I'm going for.

TMI coming- I have decided on my underwear! I am going to wear the ones without a seam at the back. I brought a pair with the same cut and wearing them today with a skirt... Keep having to re-adjust! :rotfl:

Haha Jo, its the little decisions that matter! One more thing organised for you, and a handy little tip for us - no seams up the back...

Well I know Rainbowdrops was recommending a specific pair that had a seam that she said was fine. But I would rather be safe than sorry! Don't want to be fidgety all day! If you go for one with a seam I would say check before hand!
