My dress - flash!

Hey ladies - just flashing my dress which i went to try on again on Saturday cos I was having a right panic over whether I've picked the wrong one.

It's yet to be fitted properly (final fitting 3rd week of June) and I'm doing 2 exercise classes a week to try and trim down the baby belly!!

I've found the whole process quite interesting - I never wanted a 'proper' wedding dress and although this one is quite 'weddingy' it's not meringuey if you know what I mean. I have a birdcage veil fascinator which I was planning to wear but when i went to try it on again I felt like something was missing and realised...I want a veil! It's my one chance in life to have a veil and I want one!!! Revelation to myself ; )

The picture isn't great, the dress needs to be fitted properly and I need to lose more weight but I hope you like it... (my face is covered with an appropriate heart!)

Thank you! I'm just about to turn 35 (so no spring chicken), have a 2 year old so remnants of baby belly left ; ) , I'm 5'2" with big boobs so a huge dress just wouldn't look good on me! Here's a full length one!

Ladieeeees! I didn't get any notification on replies until now so I've only just seen your very kind and flattering comments!
How lovely of you all. To be told I don't need to lose any weight is an AMAZING thing to hear (not that I believe it he he)!!!!

Awww ?

p.s. I'm probably going to borrow a shorter veil of my sister. It's a scalloped one (72 inches I think) with little crystals on it
