It's so quiet here - Let's have a flash!!

The Sock Chicken, 15 September, 2009 at 21:33 Posted on Planning 0 65

Flash whatever you like - Dresses, shoes, cakes, venues, stationery, whatever you fancy sharing!

I won't bore you with my dress again ?

So I will start with my STD's which I know some of you have seen already, and were sent out last month.


Apologies for huge picture

    Here is one of the first invite outers I made and photographed a few weeks ago. H2B moaned because the squares are not straight. The ones I made last week are better so will take better photos another time!

    Oooo yeah, a flash!!!!!

    Zippy - your STDs are gorgeous - really really like them. Everybody else - love what you've done and Fancyfree - love the make up, good choice!!!!

    Ok, I'm bored this morning. Got up super early - I'm off work today and a bit excited cos I'm going to see the Florist, Hotel, my wedding ring and have a look around for ideas for my/BMs jewellery and hair accessories.

    Sorry for the pic overload........

    My evening invitations (left) and my day invitations (right):



    My favours for ladies and gents. Still have to do the tags - I've got the punch, just haven't tried it yet.:



    Necklaces for BMs (will be ordering in the next few days). Still to see about their other jewellery:


    My shoes:


    My veil (not very exciting, I know):


    And, finally, my dress (sorry Zippy but I coudn't resist). I've still to have my alterations done so the dress is way to big and long for me just now (please ignore the mess behind me!!!)........

    Either the 26th of September or the 10th of OCtober.

    I meant to ask where you are getting those necklaces from? They are really pretty and unusual.

    Oooo Moya I can't wait to see your dress.... I'm so tempted to buy mine online. I think yours might be just the persuasion I need to save myself £800!!

    Fingers crossed that it comes soon

    FutureMrsClarke I'm glad you posted your dress again, I remember replying the other day when you posted that you'd chosen it as I think it is absolutely beautiful, but I couldn't for the life of me remember who it was that had posted it afterwards! Anyway I'm going dress shopping for the first time on Sunday and the shop I'm going to stocks White Rose so I'm hoping to try it on - you never know, if it suits me we could end up as dress twins!! (hope you don't mind me copying ?)

    Haven't really got much to flash but here's what I have got!

    Engagement ring:

    Venue:

    Ceremony room:

    Reception room:

    Outside:

    Invitations:

    Front:

    Inside:

    Back:

    Sorry for the ma-hoo-sive pics!

    Hi, hope no-one minds me joining in even tho wedding isn't til 2011 so ages away yet and hence I haven't actually got much to flash at the moment! I always love seeing what you creative ladies have been up to and there's some lovely things on this thread! Am full of inspiration but having to sit on my hands for now cos it's probably not a good idea to get stuck into making bits and pieces when it's so early on and we've got a house move coming up! Gah, must learn to be more patient!

    Anyway, this is my dress (please excuse the stupid face and also the fact it's a little tight, am planning losing weight before the wedding, lost half a stone already since I bought it a month ago!!) :



    Also got my bridesmaid her dress this weekend:


    It was from Debs in the sale, not 100% sure it will go with my dress, (altho black netting isn't as noticeable in real life) what do you think??

    (Sorry for huge pics btw!)

    Zippy, I'm getting the necklaces from Flutterby Weddings. I was drawn to them cos they are unusal but I know that its not everybodys taste. I've spent a couple of weeks sorting out what coloured beads and pearls I want and will either place the order tonight or tomorrow night. ?
