 |
|
Well today I went for the first ever time into a bridal store...& found my dress...it was a real bargain in the end of season sale.
I'ts an adult bridesmaid style in Cerise, two piece, in satin, with a corset style bodice with a square neckline, with straps, both edged with diamante in silver.
The skirt is simple A line...it's lovely, I tried it on & it fitted perfectly & made me look really slim...I'm fetching it this week, can alter the skirt length myself...I'm handy with a needle.
Guess the price...59.......nope I hav'nt made a mistake...bargain or what?

wow that IS a bargain, sounds gorgeous. I too have considered having a dress that stricktly speaking comes under the 'bridesmaid' category as I don't want anything too fussy and there are some beautiful ones around at the moment. I also fancy something other than white or ivory. Red is very popular for wedding dresses too but I am to pale for that.
Now u have the dress in that colour you can match up things like flowers etc to really set it off  |

Yes, it's a good idea to have a look at the "bridesmaid type dresses" as they are cheaper anyway than bridal gowns. The colour I've gort Cerise, is really nice & not too dark, yet not too pale, which is exactly what I wanted.
My colour scheme is lilac's purple's & pink's...so everything will match up easily.
When are you getting married?, my date is 6th August next year.

| nice one!! Sounds like a good find. What a lovely colour for a summer wedding. Does H2B know that you are planning on wearing a brightly coloured dress, or is it a suprise? |

Well he knows I am wearing a coloured dress...but not the actual colour...don't think he does anyway.
I'm going to have to be careful when I bring it home, cause his 'puter is in our bedroom...where my dress will be...I won't be able to keep looking at it etc.
I know he won't try & peek at it, cause he's not like that, he'll just leave it till THE DAY to see me all glamed up!!!
