Just had my quote back for my dress to be made for me....and its about 50% over what I budgeted. I can't justify spending the extra money on it at all, and I've seen loads of beautiful dresses for well within that budget. Just been sobbing for half an hour trying to figure out where I can cut back...

Just been sobbing for half an hour trying to figure out where I can cut back to get it, but I just can't! H2B is being so nice and has told me to just get it and we'll deal with the money later, but I truly can't justify it.....

Back to the drawing board then.....7 months today to go!

    Thanks for all the great suggestions.....Alfred Angelo seem really reasonable, as well as the bridesmaid ranges so just need to get back out there and start trying them on again! x

    Don't worry, if here is one thing i've learnt it's that brides who spend thousands and thousands on their weddings do not enjoy their day anymore than brides who do not and in many cases enjoy it a lot less due to stress and worry over the tiniest little detail.

    A wedding is just a wedding and lasts but a day, a marriage is forever, and that's the bit that counts.
