*Flashity Flash*

CB, your posts are always fun and informative but this flash has brought a lump to my throat.... it all looks absolutely perfect and you look gorgeous in that dress xx.

Everything looks great!!! you will have a great day!!! everything on these pics go together perfect x

You're be pleased to know that you do look like a radiant bride in that dress....

Lovely flash CB

your day looks like it will be just perfect. I still have dress envy a wee bit too. you have no need of the nerves lady.

All of it looks lovely, i'm loving the natural, relaxed look.

That style dress looks amazing on you, exactly what imagined you to wear.

And i think your OH is a genius for the all white flowers (that's what i'm having, he he)

I love this style, so relaxed and yet sophisticated. I think it'll all come together and look beautiful. I love the natural colours. Pity I'm such a pink girl! Lol

Plus I really want to see your actual dress! ?

Me too, Nursebride - nit until March though, boo.

Any thoughts on hair, jewellery (am thinking no need for a necklace?), flowers, centre pieces etc?

For someone who was so worried that she wouldn't look radiant enough - you look absolutely beautiful! Silly woman!

Everything else looks lovely, I think the cream flowers for the bridesmaids will look great too, especially with the setting and the 'natural' look you want.

xx

Why on earth were you worried earlier?! It all looks gorgeous!

You look beautiful in that sample dress. When do we get a flash of THE dress?????

Trickers, definitely! You can be the scary lady who sits at the back of the church and cackles! It's a cute village, isn't it?

Bootifools!

March some time, I think, Ili. It's not even a toile yet. It only exists in my mind, despite paying my 50% for it! Come on, Ms Allin, make my frock!

Or in the pouring rain with my drifter-esque wellies and big brollies! I don't mind either way!

Is that the length of your hair now or will it be longer? Just trying to think hairstyles for you

My hair is just past my shoulders. Not sure if I'll grow it longer but I suspect it won't be any shorter than it is now. Thanks, Nursey!

Right I've done a quick google for a more relaxed style... Some i like more than others but not sure what sort of think you might have in mind so i've done a little selection.

Dress dress hair hair blah blah ... what I want to know is where do I call to buy that gaaaawjus welsh dresser in the dress photo? I want it and I want it NOW.

OK. Am now off to review flash and come back with any sensible comments!

(all joking aside, you do look a stunner in that frock and veil - its totally bridetastic!!)

Some really lovely ones there, thanks N2B! Will have a proper look this evening. Excellent work, thank you!

I know, SP! I told the lovely lady in the boutique that I want it!

Ding dong! If I wasn't already betrothed to my sweetheart, I'd make a princess out of you!

shouldn't this be 'gosharooni' or something?!!

Love your bridesmaid dresses. They add a little colour to your neutral scheme.

I love everything CB! I want to go for a similar look but I don't think I can pull it off as good as you have!x

They were a fab bargain in John Lewis - £79 each! They also come in a longer version at £99. The do the colours I have as well as a black version.

Wow, absolutely stunning! im jealous! Love it all, esepcially the scrabble pieces. Are the chocolate? x

I love everything you are planning! I love the bridesmaids dresses being different colours, I have been hoping for something like for for ages! I am getting even more excited that I get to photograph all this! Did you post a concept image of the dress and I missed it? I promise not to move if you post it again! Can't wait CB

edit, nevermind, I see the dress now, I guess I was too excited and didn't give it time to load,, fabulous! You look stunning already.

Bugger, missed the dress! Everything else looks fabulous though.

Here's some hair pics I had saved...

And here's the back of mine from my trial. I'm just wearing a simple pearl and crystal alice band through the front.

Love the hair pics, I shall be nicking those, ta! Have put the dress back up for a bit, too.

Thanks, Teri, I hope it'll be a lot of fun! The bm dress pics don't do the colours justice, they're more peacock like in their shades.

Looks fabulous!!!! I can't wait to see your wedding photos!!! I haven't put a mood board together as really worried that it will not all sit properly on the page and then i will go off the idea..... but seeing yours makes me think i should have a go!

Dress is spectacular! Really beautiful. I think the simpler the better with that. Maybe some nice drop earrings and a bracelet - I wouldn't have a necklace I don't think.

Thank you, HS! I'm a bit on my own with this dress but I'm waiting for another Stephanie Allin bride to appear!

Definitely do the mood board, lovely - I did mine in powerpoint.

Oh good, I was afraid in my old age I was seeing things, LOL. The dress is gorgeous,, love the long veil, but in the end you have to go what you feel best in. (sending subliminal message to go with the long veil, LOL) You are more likely to keep the veil on longer if it doesn't get in the way tho. Loving everything

I've been lent a cathedral length veil so I can always bring that for some photos if you want, Teri? That way I can wear both! *greedy, much?!*
