    So glad you've found your dress daisiegg, it's stunning. And on your first day shopping too!

    I second ignoring the size, if it makes you feel fabulous, the size doesn't matter! And the fact that it is from a plus size range might be part of the reason it looks fab, if it's been designed for normal ladies who have curves rather than stick thin models.

    Hearing you all talking about your dresses is making me want to go out and try some on, I'm another whose been putting it off until I've lost weight :o

    I love that Alfred Angelo one you posted too.. I'd decided on a tea length Dolly Couture but after seeing that.... :rotfl:

    PS a 16 definitely isn't considered plus size :D

    Lol the girl in the shop, bless her, never used the phrase 'plus size' she kept saying "it's a range designed for women with big boobs" cos she'd picked up on my boobs. It made me feel better anyway!

    Thanks everyone!!

    After being so excited over the weekend I now feel a bit flat and sad...did I REALLY order the fourth dress I tried on?! I will never get to try on wedding dresses again!!

    But then I look at a picture of my dress and get happy again...

    Nothing stopping you trying on! LOL

    My friend owned a wedding dress shop, I found the dress before the husband! LOL.

    She used to use me as a model for all the new dresses so I got to try on loads. None of them ever made me light up like my dress though!
