So ages ago I got some Rainbow Club Luella shoes at a bargain price on Ebay. I got a size 7 but they were way too tight so had to sell them on. Kinda gave up on them as £65 rrp was too expensive and there were no size 8's anywhere cheap. So I got a...

As the title says.... Just curious ?

Hi guys.. When we get married next November '12, we will have been together 3 years. I will be 42 and my fiance will be 34 (I know, lucky girl, right!).. It is to be my second marriage and his first. My first wedding will have been 20 years ago and I...

I'm torn between a side tiara or a comb stuck above the bun bit in an updo. What are you having? Also v. confused by something I just read about choosing between a comb and hairpins, I kind of thought it was customary to have both...

First fitting today, and absolute f'ing nightmare! Cutting a long story short the bridal shop took my measurements wrong and they ordered a size to small dress. I'm either left with the two options of taking the sample - luckily its the right size OR...

Have had a really bad week as OH's Grandfather passed away a few days ago. Now I'm sat here unable to sleep as I have only got 6 weeks left and keep thinking of all of the things I still need to do but with zero motivation to do anything. Thought a...

Can someone answer this for me please.... We went to a wedding on Saturday and not only did all the male members of the wedding party have buttonholes but so did the mother of the bride and the mother of the groom. I had always thought that only the...

What are you putting on top of your cakes? I'm looking for inspiration - Flashes welcome.

What have you learned about yourself from planning a wedding? I have been talking to my mum a lot more and I noticed how much she tries to micro manage everything I do. I find it annoying and realise that I do the same to my partner. I said to him...

Hi everyone, I'm getting married next year and we are starting to think about music. Ideally, I would like to walk down the aisle to something classical, but also something a bit different. We have been to a few weddings recently and they have had...

I'd just like a bit of help regarding florists. We don't have a budget per se but I want to make sure we're not being duped. We've been quoted £380 for a bride's bouquet, three bridesmaids' bouquets, two buttonholes and 5 12" wreath centrepieces. I'm...

So, we've decided on a glittery snowflake theme with the main colours being red and white. (Last November/Christmas wedding!) I was wondering if I could rack your brains on any ideas for favours, decorations etc? I think I've exhausted Google!!
