OMG!!!GOT MY DRESS!!**FLASH**

Flowmojo, 18 October, 2010 at 10:20 Posted on Planning 0 23

Well, the OH has been away this weekend, so i was having a girly weekend at home. Seeing as I’m not getting married for 19mths, not thinking about dress (u may recall me visiting a shop last week) but my friends were all excited and like 'cmon, lets go try some onnnnnnnnnnnnnn just for fun'..so armed with 3 of my closest we headed to the bridal street in the town I live in!

Well, I tried on one, and one only and it was the only one in pink (which is what I’m looking for!).....and seeing my friends in tears and feeling like a princess Ii knew it was the one!! Its EXACTLY what ive been descriving to people that I wanted!! ALSO it was in the sale, reduced from (wait for it) £1500 to £650!!

Excuse the demented picture but I’m giddy........and the dress is 4 sizes too big too lol

    I orginaly wanted yellow...like Belles yellow dress in beauty and the beast lol but i guess i wanted something completely different, as when i was younger i used to be a complete tomboy, wouldnt wear a dress but as i got older i made up for it by being way girly..so pink fitted that! i orginally didnt want strapless either but hey ho lol

    What a bargain - well done you!

    (I must admit I thought they looked like marshmallows around the top though. Handy for when you get peckish on the way to your ceremony though!)

    Tehe, you look lovely in it!

    When I went dress shopping, my friend made me try on a huge princessy dress like this, and I swear there was so much netting the thing almost stood up by itself!

    How did you manage to sneak a piccy by the way??

    I really like this - my friends wouldn't be surprised if I turned up in something pink and fluffy like this! Howvever I had pink first time round so I'll have to make to with having pink elsewhere. I really like the netting (or whatever the posh name is) and kept twirling and playing with it like a 5 year old playing dress-up.... My CBM didn't like it tho so put me off the idea

    Once it's fitted to you properly, it'll be gorgeous - now don't you be flashing the finished article and give me wobbles!!!!

    Well done that's such a bargain! Just make sure it is absolutely the dress you want as you are still '1 season of new dresses' away from your wedding and may end up doing a 'saracroft' who also bought her dress 2 years before her big day and then 6 months before decided she didn't like it anymore and then bought a new dress (more expensive). It caused her quite a bit of stress before the big day. Just a friendly word of advice Smiley winking

    It's only my opinion but I think the roses on the top don't work for you as they add 'bulk' to the top bit and also they age the dress a little ️?️
