Default I got my dress

I went dress shopping on Saturday with my mum and had the most fantastic time. The people in the shop were so nice and made me feel really comfortable even when I was stood in my undies. There were 3 people looking after me and when we got there we had a chat about the type of wedding and dresses I liked while we had a glass of wine. Then we picked some out and I tried on about 12 and fell in love with the last one I tried on. There were quite a few that were lovely though.

I'd definately recommend Brides of Sussex in Bognor Regis as they were so nice and I was a bit worried after my awful time in the other shop.

I've got myself a tiara and a veil as well as altogether they looked fab. It comes with long gloves which I tried but wasn't sure about so probably won't wear those.

Its by sincerity bridal and they've ordered it for me and it should get in at the beginning of June.

Here's some piccies..

You can't see it in the piccies but it's got quite a long train and I've gone for a 144" veil which looks lovely but I think will probably get a bit annoying and be taken off quite quickly. One more piccie....

That is totally stunning!

Sounds like you have a really good day, and the staff treated you in a way that you can expect to be treated as the "B2B" choosing her dress!

Well done that shop!

Well done you!

Hi teresa,

I have to say that your dress is gorgeous. I tired this dress on too before I decided on mind.

What a stunning dress!

I'm so glad you had 'The Day' - the one that comes second to the wedding day of course! I had one and it seems so long ago...

I went to order my bm dresses last weekend and just wanted to try on more...sad,i know!

PS Is it just me or did that model have a miniscule waist???!!

She has a tiny waist. When I tried it on though and she held it together at the back cos it was about 3 sizes too big, it gives you the most wonderful figure and I had a waist I didn't know about.

I love that dress. If I didn't want all red I'd have probably gone for that one myself. It's gorgeous.
