    Have you tried the new disposable contacts? Might be better for you. Worth a try. Went in Specsavers yesterday to order H2B 2 new pairs of glasses and saw they had a months worth for £22. (H2B has ordered a FANTASTIC pair of glasses...... steered him torwards a pair with an emerald green strip on the arms...... matches bridesmaids dresses!!!! Didn't tell thim that till afterwards though, might have seemed a bit extreme!!!)

    I do have daily contacts but they dry out soo quickly even with eye drops every hour or so...
    My glasses are fab too, they are a purply pink but not the same as the BM dresses which is a bummer!
    I bet your H2B will look fab!

    I think im gonna go blind for the important bit and then wear glasses for the meal / evening.
    I usually wear really thick framed funky coloured glasses so i look a little odd without them i think.

    hmmm veil.. i look a bit like herman munster in drag in a veil, still toying with the idea :(

    I have to wear my glasses all the time, i'm certainly going to wear them for my wedding.

    I just wouldnt look like me with out them. I tend to get terrible headaches if i ever take them off, so its a complete no no for me, i wouldnt even think about trying to manage without them. xx

    I am toying with the idea of a veil Karlie and I am in the "im blind if I dont wear my glasses club" and contact lenses just dont agree with my odd shaped dry eyes! So if I was to get a veil I would just have one that is pinned to underneath my updo, so I wont have the veil over my face for the big entrance. I did joke with Paul that I could have a veil over my face and add comedy value to my entrance by wearing my glasses over the veil lol!!!

    Whatever suits you is best Karlie, good way of practising if you dont already have a veil is to use some netting or thin material and try it out with a hairclip or comb, not that I have ever done that though.......honest heehee!! xx
