    Wahoo!! Absolutlely gorgeous!! It's taking me all back! ?

    I actually bought my shoes before I bought my dress....have you found shoes yet?

    With my shoes on I needed 1 inch taking off the bottom of my dress...which I was afraid to do...but taking the inch off made the world of difference.

    It looks fabulous on you! LOVE IT!

    Have you decided on jewellery yet?

    Oh Fran I absolutely love it! ?

    Yes got my shoes and I felt like a princess with everything on although my mum forgot my veil. She felt terrible but it didn't matter. I didn't want to take it off.

    I am scared about the alterations but what can you do? ? I told them not to take too much off the netting!

    Thank you!

    Ive picked my jewellery out but OH said he's going to buy it for me. It's pearls and crystals as that's what's on the dress. Fingers crossed he gets the right ones!

    Live 2 weeks til my next fitting!

    Xx

    You are going to feel amazing all day long in that dress and you aren't going to want to take it off at night! I honestly wanted to keep it on forever.

    I wore a pearl necklace, and pearl earrings with no other jewellery except my engagement and wedding rings. The detail on the dress is so glamorous that I didn't feel it needed anything else.

    Have you chosen a hair style yet?

    When I first bought the dress I wanted a huge bun on the side...but I ended up wearing half-up half-down and curled. Your wedding is soon!! SO exciting!! Your groom is going to love your dress!!

    The other thing I loved about this dress was that it wasn't overly hot! Some of the other dresses I tried on before hand made me feel instantly boiling and there's no way I could have handled that all day...but this one was the perfect temperature throughout the day.

    Best dress choice EVER!!

    Oh yeah! It looks like she has more netting that I do, or that her lace is further up her dress...!
