For someone who never wears make-up, and who has had the same hair for over a decade, apart from different lengths twice a year when my sister visits from Hong Kong and trims the bottom, or the occasional different colour, this was a little daunting....

Hi I've been looking for the right pair of bridal shoes and have spotted two lovely pairs, one half the price of the other but I cannot seem to find the least expensive ones in my size or colour! I really love the expensive ones, they are Benjamin...

Just want to say - this time next week I will be having dinner with everyone before saying goodbye to my OH for the last time as his fiance and toddling off to my hotel room with my daughter to try and get some sleep before my big day! Anyway,...

The big day is almost here! The OH turned up last night with his son, and that's when the reality really kicked in. In less than 36 hours time we will be married!! Still running around like a headless chicken BUT: * My and the bridesmaids flowers...

Ticking them off today! My piece of net turned up this morning so having rummaged in the loft for my veils patterns (left over from making one for wedding number 1), I got the scissors out. Couldn't decide between shoulder length and more material,...

Hey, Just wondering what you have DIY'd for your big day? I'm a very crafty person so want to do as much as possible ie. Invites, centrepieces, table plans etc. But not sure if I'm completley kidding myself that I can do it all on top of the...

I feel I'm going to have to call time on my dress ?. I've been shortening it myself to cut costs (majorly stretched the budget for it), and had hoped to lose 3st a year ago so it would fit properly. Weight loss hasn't happened, I can't sit down in it...

Who can relate to any of these? Probably all of them for me ?

Not long home from a fab-u-lous weekend! Couldn't really have asked for better, other than the few people who couldn't come at the last minute being there. Full report will come once the photographer has posted the preview pictures (his daughter had...

Trying to find a dress for my daughter and her cousin to wear. Don't want anything fancy, it's a register office ceremony and I want the girls to be able to wear them afterwards. Not even sure I'm that fussed about having bridesmaids either,...

Ok, having crocheted this little lot, I've got to put it together to make something pretty.... ? It started out as wild flowers, but ended up as anything lol. Have no idea how it's going to turn out, but plan B is nip to a supermarket on the morning...

Not really huge amounts to show, but was told on another thread I needed to flash ? So.... My dress - Maggie Sottero Ascher in this colour with the belt. My mum thinks I'd be showing too much flesh and reckons brides should cover up a bit more......

Went to have lunch with mum and sis as it's mum's 70th on Wednesday, and as my niece was there too we took the opportunity to have a look round for dresses for her and my daughter. OH didn't like the idea of them in black, so going with the only...

I'm supposed to be saving for the dress deposit I need to pay in the next couple of weeks, and I've got a kitchen full of clothes I'm trying to sell to help, so what do I do? Yep, I buy a pair of shoes ?. Well, they were only £10 down from £22, plus...

A year or so old now, but never been worn and still has the tags on. Gorgeous dress, but I'm too short and it doesn't sit right in the body ☹️. Size 12, but comes up a bit small. Cost me £130, but asking £100. Comes with detachable straps

Hello all Sat down with H2B to work out our budget for the wedding. Realistically we can't afford for me to spend more than £800 on a dress (with £200 for shoes and veil etc and any alterations the dress may need) Does that sound like a reasonable...
