Ok. Second wedding. I remember being here ten years ago planning my first. Unfortunately ended in divorce. Doing it all again albeit on a tighter budget
I did order my first dress from some website in China. I don't remember which one now but for about £120 (and I measured myself) it was lovely. Needed adjusting mainly length but still.... So I do have some faith in these dresses. Although I know the quality isn't obviously as good. Equally read and saw horror stories!
So now I guess this JJs house and another one similar are the go to cheap dress sites... Are they any good?
I'm pregnant at the moment due August. After having our first live child together last August (and I have three from my ex)... I'm currently like a whale. Found the above dress which I love but it goes to maximum uk 16 which I normally am (was a 14 4 years ago... Sob). But anyway.. if anyone knows of any similar dresses that can be made to measure or bought elsewhere! I have googled to no avail. I know it's pretty plain but I like that. My wedding colours this time are white or ivory and red. It'll be a reg office do when I get some dates.
So talk to me about the best dress sites and what to avoid!
Any plus size brides any recommendations? X

    Hiya, not sure whereabouts in the country you are, but I'm opening a size-inclusive Pre-Loved bridal boutique in Liverpool next month. You're more than welcome to pop in for a cuppa, a chat and a try on when restrictions permit!

    I'd avoid ChiChi London anyway - I ordered a couple of their dresses to try on for my wedding and the quality was HORRIBLE! I ordered when they were on sale, so they were about £35-£40 each instead of the original £200, and to be honest, they were barely worth the sale price, never mind full price!
