The swatch has arrived!

There's not really much more to say. I shall put one piece in my bag and the other can stay at home. It's such a gorgeous colour and I hope we can get the bridesmaids dresses in it. Fingers crossed!

potential bridesmaids dresses found

Had a great day today looking at bridesmaids dresses. We have narrowed the list down to three but there seems to be a favourite from everyone. Need to have a think and look at the pics again. Unfortunately we don't have too long though as the dresses need to be ordered. Some really lovely dresses out there - hopefully the girls are thinking that too...

The Bridesmaids :D

Have now booked two appointments for Saturday 23rd May so the bridesmaids can try on some dresses. I've also ordered a swatch for the colour I want - sorry, we want - so that I can actually show people, rather than (unsuccessfully) describing it to them. Why didn't I think of that before!

I also need to start looking for shoes for myself. The dress will be ready in approx 12-16 weeks and I need to have the shoes by then. They can't be too high, nor too low, must be comfortable, look fab, work with the dress, be easy to dance in and just be the best damn pair of shoes in the world. Shouldn't be too hard...

Wedding dress...check!

I've done it! I've bought my dress! It's gorgeous and I feel amazing in it! I want to wear it all the time and never take it off. You only have to wait 6 months to find out what it looks like ;) Ooh, it's the bridesmaids next!

Wedding gowns again.

I've just got back from trying on dresses again. After going to The Bridal House in Aston Clinton on Thursday (April 30th), I found myself feeling really torn between the dresses I liked there and the two dresses I liked from Marlow. So I made an appointment to go back to Marlow and I tried on the dresses again. I've decided that I'm definitely having one of the dresses from Aston Clinton. It's so exciting! I've made an appointment to go back there on Wednesday evening to try on my favourites again. I'm really looking forward to it. The staff are so friendly and genuine. I feel like they really care about me and my wedding. And the gowns are gorgeous. It's going to be difficult choosing 'the one' but I do have one in my head that might just pip the others to the post.
