As a guest, if I saw black tie on an invite - I wouldn't understand that to mean wear black or white. It means a dinner jacket for men and cocktail dresses/ball gowns for ladies.

I agre - when I said I went to a black tie do it was a dinner dance where the dress code for the men was dinner jacket and the women wore appropriate dresses.....but the colour specified was black or white.

I know I have ages to the wedding (11/8/12) but I think it's important to get colour scheme locked down earlier when on a budget because now I can keep my eyes peeled for bargains in my choosen colour scheme of purple and ivory. Also bought 10 big brandy glass style vases for £30 in a shops closing down sale which I'm thinking of filling with pearls and a pillar candle.

That's a very pretty dress Pinkmum, hope you're happy with it!

Love the sound of the brandy glasses filled with pearls and a candle, they'll look really good and £30 for 10 is a real bargain!

thank you the dresses suited them all perfectly from my tiny sis to my tall SIL. the shop i bought the vases from has gone into administration so I'm going to keep a close eye on other bargains there.
