    the visit went really well-started to feel a bit downheartened as the dress i really wanted wasnt really 'me'....but tried the eden bridal one on and loved it straight away!

    i did write a post about my experience there-was v funny as i presumed it was a shop and took my 2 yr old!!he was ok but a little bored!

    I was also expecting a shop.. i take it its not lol...

    Im planning on taking my BM with me... You think that would be ok?

    I keep looking at my dress thinking it may not suit me.. The lady did say that if i didnt like it i could choose another.

    Does she have a couple of dresses in stock?

    Sorry for all the questions. Your the first person i have met who has bought their dress from this place :-)

    She has an extension on her house-really lovely lady, she has a lot of dresses in stock and is not pushy at all (though she did get me to put on a veil and tiara when i said i didnt want them!) but she is good in that she encourages you to try on lots of designs, like i said before i would never had asked to try on the dress i am now getting!Also it looks nothing like it does on her website!

    when are you going? let me know how you get on...are you from newbury way? Im in maidenhead but only about 40 mns away from the bridal place

    I’m really looking forward to going down now. Me and the BM's are gonna make a weekend of it so it should be fun!

    Ill let you know how it all goes

    Just an update on my visit to the Bridal Wear Comp last Saturday.

    Had a really good experience. Elena is great, shes really helpful. And my dress OMG - its beautiful. Bought it home with me and its now currently hanging in a dark safe place.. trying so hard not to look at it every 5 minutes lol.

    The girls also enjoyed the visit as they too got to sample some of the BM dresses :-D

    Have you got your dress yet?
