    Ladies!!!! Please stop having purple coloured weddings!!!! Lol..... Everything second hand I look at all I see is purple! Anyone struggling to find their colours? And can anyone recommend anywhere cheap but good? I've tried: bay, gum, pre and b2b and nothing navy blue!

    Thanks!

    When we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours
    we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying
    weirdness and call it love, true love.

    I wanted navy blue, but we decided against it as I'm a Spurs fan and it would look like I'd chosen football colours. My h2b chose Neon pink instead. Now everywhere I go I see navy blue wedding things!

    If you haven't already got your bridesmaid dresses then Coast have the most beautiful navy blue ones. Every time I go in I put the coat-hanger over my head and swish around in them.

    Have you tried messaging some for the sellers on the bay? You might find that they will quite happily make or cover the things they have for you for a small charge. Especially with things like BM dresses. x

    I'm having Burgundy and Cream Lace and it does seem to be purple everywhere at the mo!! I've ended up trailing markets and doing a lot of DIY to get stuff how I want them! Even down to making my own chair sashes! I am a fussy mare though! What kinds of things are you looking for? We can keep an eye out for stuff! xxxx

    Im having blue as well haha! ive not looked for anything coloured yet though - so il let you know if i struggle haha! Mind you, Im not strictly following it, as the centre peices are sweet trees and my favours will be in little plant pots as well, so the most i could struggle on really, is finding the correct shade of blue paint or ribbon hah!

    Ive seen some gorgeous blue bm dresses but im not allowed to buy any til next year, as they all want to go on diets, so if anything is going to give me grief, its those!

    JacquelineJ I am having gold and ivory too!!! I know what you mean about the bridesmaid dress hunt - i want a pale shimmery gold rather than antique gold or venitian gold which is what i keep seeing!!! I may end up going for more of a champagne gold at this rate!!

    Am having burgundy colour, not finding it too difficult really to find the colour, but i agree there is so much purple about xxxx try the high street shops for navy blue, they sometimes have bm dresses and stuff in that colour in them xxx
