Default Just ordered my dress and had a MASSIVE shock!!
Within the last hour I have paid my money and ordered my dress........

The biggest shock was not the price (it was a bargain anyway!) but when she took my measurements and compared them to her piece of paper I was a 14 Why the shock I hear you say???? Well I've spent goodness knows how long telling people I'm a 16/18......

Being me I had to prove this to myself so I went to a shop, tried on and bought myself a pair of cords in a size 14!!!

I think I'm still in shock...... I even tried on the dress in the shop which is a size 12, it fitted perfectly apart from zipping up over my boobs (he he he), it even looked good over my belly... didn't show my lumps and bumps, I think the 14 will be a perfect fit!!!

Heather (One very happy bride to be!!!!)

ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR DRESS!!

I sometimes wish Ihad been more adventurous!!

I go past a bridal shop every morning on the way to work, and they have got red ones in the window, due to Valentines day!

They look stunning!

Oh well, it's too late I suppose now!

I want to be a size 14 (pouts).

I've got dreams of wearing a white suit for the civil ceremony and it's never a very good idea for larger people to wear pale. Must go to the gym....
