Thanks girls, I'm sure I'll find something I love. I was thinking of not telling the bridal shops the timescale straight away as I don't want them to not show me certain dresses, just in case one of them is 'the one' and I could source it online in a quicker time.
If I do fall in love with one though I will certainly try your idea Em, of asking whether the sample could be altered to fit. Thanks for that.
Rups I can't believe you haven't done a test yet, is the curiousity not killing you? I was 5 days late the month before last and I did three tests, even though I couldn't possibly be pregnant as I'd been working over the other side of the world to my fiance for the last few months. :rotfl:Debt at 1/5/09 £21,996 _pale_

I'm exactly the same - even though I'm irregular so never really "late".
I think you can alter 2 sizes down.
rups, buy a test on the way home xEu não sou uma tartaruga. Eu sou um codigopombo.0 -
I am so relaxed about AF I wouldn't even know if I was late haha. I take the mini pill so it can mean you don't have a visit from AF or that it can happen at different times so I just go with the flow and just hope that I would know if anything weren't what I was expecting. hhmmm maybe not the best policy. Have started to make a note though so I can tell if AF will be visiting at the wedding to see if I can do anything to stop it.
I am sat in reception at work now covering lunch breaks; I really want some choccie bics from the kitchen...0 -
Rups - You mentioned a hoop for your dress. Do you know if all dresses need them? No one has mentioned a hoop to me before and now I am wondering...
Do I need one - Its this dress (and me) Sorry about the size

I am curious but scared too. dont ask why?? its one of those feelings that i had before we got married and you think 'oh no am i?' Of course would love to be.. and am very curious. dont ask what i am waiting for! hehe ok will get it after work! :0)
sample dresses can be altered. mine was a size 16 and luckily it got sorted and it was a tie-back one with a corset so i was stuck in properly. those dresses are prob better if one may think they could lose more or gain slightly just before.Became Mrs H on the 1st of October 2011!!

olokia, not all dresses need hoops but mine did as it def made it easier to walk around in my dress as it was A-shaped so it was fuller at the bottom if you know what i mean? if you can have a look at my Fb pictures and see the dress, so i had to have one and it was lovely, as my legs could move about. if you need one you can always have mine

A hoop might make it easier with my dress I don't know... I remember when I was trying it on, I had to lift up the dress as I walked but it may have been because I A) had no shoes on and will have heels on the day and
the dress was a bit long for me as I am quite short.
Maybe I should find my dress alteration person earlier so I can ask and then will have time to get one if I need to. Thanks for the offer of the hoop. I will see what the dress person says0 -
olokia - did they not advise you in the shop? I'm not having one as don't want it too large. Great dress, by the way.
