I'm quite lucky as I only have one adult bm and she's fallen in love with the same dress as me and the children will wear what they're given lol! Only problem is the expense it's crazy how much they cost but I've managed to get the shop to agree to free alterations due to my dress and the bm dresses being ordered from them so I'm spending a fortune!!
It is a long way to travel for a week Kel but as long as you think it's worth it you should go for it! We are off to Mexico for ours I can't wait!! x

U do have it lucky Vicky! I have 4 adult bridesmaids that all have different opinions on what they like so have decided now to get them made (chiffon) but they can choose how they want the top of the style to be x

Well it didn't look right. My bm felt it wasn't flattering and I see what she means, a bit maternity. And the boning on the right hand side of the bust area doesn't go high enough and the material folds over a bit:

Know exactly what you all mean about the be dress saga, went shopping with my girls today, endless dresses and so many were nice but not BM like enough for me, but found a beautiful dress in ghost, which was just wonderful. Thankfully both my girls are pretty similar, so was pretty easy in the end :)
Sonya, pretty dress but have to agree with the others, poss not the best shape for her
Just the rest of the day to worry about now...

And the girls being on diets thing ... I have one of my fiances sisters on a diet but the year she's been on it she hasn't lost much so I've said I'm ordering them hopefully in the next few weeks made to measure so she'll just have to pay for the alterations if it needs it ... Can't wait forever x

I guess I'm lucky in that respect as both mine are size 8 and have been forever.
Went to the North East wedding show yesterday, found someone that make vintage hair clips for very reasonable prices. She makes a mock up first to show you so changed can be made prior to using the actual vintage pieces.
Also went to our venue today as they had an open day so was all set up, h2b has never seen it done up. The lady that does the reception decor had set it up with vintage lace hoods with pearl brooches on the chairs so we've decided we're having those but with a pink sash too. This is the room:

H2b got tons of suit hire info too so that is the next job

They arnt very nice people anyway, when I had my son 7 months ago they totally ignored my 3 year old daughter and when I was pregnant the FMIL kept saying she'd prefer a boy! Grr and then when my nephew was born 4 weeks after my son she's hardly seen my kids since but hey go never mind lol Just waiting for them to start asking if certain people are invited now.... Xx
CommentAuthorVelcro
I'd of said no. Cheeky gits!
My future MIL wants involved in eeeeeverything. It's starting to drive me mad. She didn't like my invites lol. But my mum thought they were fab. Didn't like my flowers. I had to have 'real' ones.... Though when she saw them in the flesh they 'look better than' she thought lol
She's not actually the mil from hell, despite how I make it sound, I think she just has an idea of how a wedding 'should be' lol. I'm not telling her what I'm walking down the aisle too. Or the cake..... Il never hear the end of it LOL
Good job I know my own mind! Haha!

Haha Velcro my FMIL is from hell but she treats my h2b and his brother differently she favors his brother and she wanted us to have a catholic wedding even though she's CoE lol my engagement party was full of her friends me and tom had never met and she never told me she was inviting them either And after the way she's been with my children recently I'm really starting to dislike her lol xx

Oh dear, sounds like a few of us are gonna have monster in laws!!
Mine still has a pic of h2b and his ex wife on their wedding day up in the front room!! And when she didn't like my fg choices came out with this little gem 'well a lot can happen in two years, you might split up'

For some reason the silver and gold hotels only need £50 per group but bronze needs £50 per person

I haven't asked for a bronze hotel tho? That I know of anyway, think I'm gonna have to double check that tomorrow as I thought with my initial interest I had asked to be quoted on a gold hotel... Hmm now double thinking myself!

So I went bm shopping today. Found one we really liked but there's still one I wanted my bm to try on but the didn't have. This I'd the one she tried:
image.jpg
And this is the other one I still like but couldn't try on:
image.jpg
Moh prefers the sweetheart neckline of the one we couldn't try. I don't know what to do cos I'm ordering from the US, do I just order the other without trying it? Tried all the shops local to us
Obviously they'll be pink

We've found somewhere she can try the other one on! Yay, can make a decision now based on how they both look!

a bit stuck ladies.... evening recpetion hot food or cold buffet? (were not having a wedding breakfast) the inlaws say hot my mum says whatever you want and i personally prefer buffet as it can stay out all evening and people can goup as they please unlike with the hot food..... what do you think? xx
CommentAuthorVelcro
the ring looks amazing sonya! and I love all those dresses, would be so hard to choose D:
Just go with what you personally want katielea. we are having a hot buffet instead of a sit down meal, then bacon/egg butties instead of the regular buffet later as we are getting married late
