Talking Wedding Dress!

Hi All,

Well today at 12.00 for the very 1st time I will be trying on MY VERY OWN WEDDING DRESS!!!

Not the shop one, but mine!!!!! I am so excited!!

I've had a totally shit couple of days, either to do with work (which you all know about) or my parents but that's another story!!

So today I am really looking forward to it, my cbm is coming and also we are hopefully going to order her bm dress too, and then we have decided to go to the hotel for some lunch!

I will let you know how it all goes!

Ness

PS:- My Basque from Bravissimo showed up at 8.00am yesterday morning and fits like a glove!! Let's just hope it goes with me dress!!! (definitely recommend them!)

Hello All!

Well I'm back, and what a glorious time I have had!!

My dress fitted perfectly (apart from the length cause I'm a short arse!!) and not only that but the basque that I ordered from Bravissimo was excellent and went under it like a treat!!

The woman in the shop (which is ******** & Lace in Farnham) said she couldn't have chosen better herself!!

We have also ordered the BM dress which is a Mori Lee for my CBM and ordered her shoes. And we have made appointments for the little ones to go and try on some dresses for them!

Ness.

Hi Ness,

Glad it went so well.

I'm still not convinced after my dress fitting, so I'm really pleased to hear that you had a good one.

How long have you got to go now then?

Glad it all went so well for you Ness - I still remember the nightmares I had after my fitting (it was awful). Well done for sorting out the cbm dress etc. What did you go for?

Glad it went well, and I'm glad the basque arrived in time & fitted!

Hope mine goes that well, only a week and a day to go!

And for the little bm's.

The dress will be ivory, and the sash will be the colour of the CBM's dress.

It is the little girl's dress!!! (called Mella so it must be good!!)
