    Here you go...... you'll find the right one eventually, i thought mine was a bit plain when i first tried it on but then when i went to other shops i just kept thinking about this one so guessed it must be the one for me!

    best of luck!

    Thanks girls keep them cominng.

    Sarah-Kay i think i tried your dress on but when i tried the sample it was about 4 sizes too big and i couldnt visualize(no idea if i spelt right) it!

    Ebony - if i could wear black i soooo would but i think my mum would kill me, i am having black bridesmaid dresses.

    I love everyones dresses and if i could have a bit of everyones that would be my perfect dress!

    This is mine. I also don't have a picture of me in it at the moment so this is the best I can do.

    Have you considering getting your dress made just for you?

    To add to this, there's quite a lot you can get added/changed to dresses. For example, I'm having straps added to mine. You can have necklines changed, changes in matrial, type of detail etc

    Mine will be ivory. I have pics of me in the sample but it's too small for me and looks rubbish.

    Oh come on beth post them....

    PG - i have thought about it but i am too much of a scardy cat,,, i am soooo fussy that i think if i was to get one made i would be in absolute panic that i wouldnt like it!!

    Ill keep looking, got a while yet and all the new season dresses are in the shops now.

    I have found a few that i like enough if i dont find 'the one' but i am desperate to have that moment otherwise i know i will be having wobbles until the wedding if i just settle for one thats ok not perfect!

    From what I've seen, you'd look stunning in a black bin liner!

    Go on! My sample dress was 2 sizes too small and my own was too small at first although might not be now but I'll find out next Friday if I've lost enough weight.

    I've been having a few wobbles about it because its almost what i wanted but i was hoping for a bigger skirt. I'm going to have an underskirt though to puff it out a bit.

    You will have that moment once you find the dress that is right for you and there are heaps of dresses you can have that aren't white and long.

    FWIW I didn't have a crying this is the one moment, and never though I would do either. Mine was just one that ticked all the right boxes, and I couldn't find anything wrong with it, as I could with the other 40-odd I tried on.

    I thought that as well but then when I tried my own dress on with veil, tiara etc I was really glad it wasn't any bigger and actually thought it was too big so I went full circle in my thoughts!

    When will your own dress arrive in the shop? Once it fits you'll love it 100% and hoops really do make a difference.

    I've not seen the back of yours before, it's lovely and now I understand why your hair needs to be in an up-do!
