    I found mine on the Tuesday. We married on the Friday!

    That dress is lovely BTW.

    You beat me - slightly. I found mine a week before. It arrived on the Tuesday and we married on the Friday.

    Im getting married August 2014, haven't even been to look at dresses yet, dont plan on going till the end of the year. My friend gets married November 2013, bought her expensive dress a year ago and now it doesnt fit, shes had to buy a high street dress.
    Married 30/08/14 :heartpuls

    Wow that dress is stunning!

    I ordered my dress about nine months before the date and collected it when it was about six months to go. I had a minor alteration to it.. Bustle hoop/ribbon to tie up the train in the evening, which took about two weeks. I couldn't wait to have it in my hands! And didn't want the stress of not having it leading up to the wedding!
    Married my wonderful husband on 8/9/12 :j
  • I bought mine on Saturday - we're getting married in about 7 months time. I started looking probably about a couple of months earlier, but this was only the 3rd dress shopping day :j
