well its such a fun experience havin your 1st dress fitting, my size is of a size 12 but when they did the measurements by tape on the mori lee dresses it made me a size 16/18 and its a mori lee dress im havin but thank god for the lovely women in the shop and know what there doing, i tried on 3 dresses all same shaped dresses and make as mine in 3 sizes 12 so small 14 tight but did up and 16 to big so im going for a 14 as that now gives me 6 months to loose a stone not doing that to get into the dress as size isnt an issue really its just for my holiday i want my body to look a little better than what it does now anyway the moral of this lil story is dont worry about what the dress size says in the label as no one knows the real size anyway as all sizes differ lol x

ohh how exciting lol xxx
CommentAuthorGeordie_Nikki
Ive always been told wedding dressed are small sizes, Im normally between an 8-10 but I reckon a 12 will be spot on, tried a 14 on and was a bit big.
CommentAuthorjules
oh it so was i thought i was to old to wear the whole dress thing (46) but i thought what the hell and it does look good on me it made my mum cry lol this is my 3rd wedding never did the dress thing so i thought this is the last time im ever doing this never againnnnnnnnn so il do it proper, have you chose your dress yet( ohfiddles) x
CommentAuthorjules

Fiddles, my mam has offered a budget of £1500 for my dress which is the only reason Im getting an expensive one lol
I was budgeting (if paying myself) at £500
CommentAuthorjules
nicci look on my photos my dress is in there its a mori lee dress tell me what u think x
CommentAuthorNicci
Price really isnt important. I only spent a fortune on mine because when my dad passed away he left me some money to marry and he knew how important the dress was to me :) You can get gorgeous dresses really cheap x
