    Beautiful dress, lovely. Could I be cheeky and ask where you got your page boy flag from?

    Thanks!

    Haven't bought the page boy flag yet, but the one I want (this picture) is from etsy - here - http://www.etsy.com/listing/78348745/here-comes-the-bride-sign-large-pennant?ref=sr_gallery_15&ga_search_query=here+comes+the+bride+flag&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=ZZ&ga_min=0&ga_max=0&ga_ref=auto6&ga_search_type=all&ga_facet=here+comes+the+bride+flag

    It is a bit on the dear side, so might look for an alternative or see if any of my more creative friends could make one! (If I tried it would be a disaster!) I do love this one though x

    Woah that's a lot of money for a ridiculously simple thing to make.

    All you'd need is to download a nice font, arrange in publisher or something similar. Print onto nice A3 paper/card and cut to size. Add to a dowel then wrap with ribbon. Easy peasy.

    Agreed, they are expensive to buy but I would do a seriously shoddy job myself ha ha, I am not making anything for the wedding. I will hopefully be able to recruit a creative friend to make one though! Same with the cake topper mini bunting, also from etsy ?

    April 6th 2013. Ah, thanks! But one of my bridesmaids made me a gorgeous wedding scrap book when I got engaged, with different sections with little envelopes to put things cut of of magazines etc, so I think she'd love to make one. You'll have to keep us updates with flashes of how you get on with yours though!! I kind of like the idea of getting my little nephew to draw a cute picture himself to go on it, but he will only be 3 so not sure that would turn out too well...!

    That bridesmaid dress is gorgeous!!! Do you mind me asking where it's from and how much? Although I have a feeling that it's outside of my budget...

    Missmandymoo - They are from Coast!! It's called Tamara Short, and you can also get Tamara Maxi which is *ahem* long of course! You can get them in other colours too, definitely a dark blue one and I think maybe a pink and a red. They are lovely! Here's the link, and it looks like they are on sale for £79! https://www.coastfashion.com/coast/fcp-product/2224783445 Hmm, they might be out of stock though...

    Thanks Smiley smile I've got a couple of years left to go so maybe I can keep a lookout for when Coast have a sale next time. I really love their dresses but when they're not on sale, they way out of my budget.
