Phew, now I have got my outfit for Grandson's wedding. Was going to wait until next week and look in Plymouth but just come back from Gloucester Quays where there was a food festival on that was excellent.

And, even better, I got my wedding outfit, got it in Klass in the outlet centre. originally would have cost £80 altogether but cost me £41. Dress and jacket (not a pair but part of the same collection so the colours match). Dress is a floaty one with wide straps, about shin length on me (5 ft 2+), white background, lilac and pink floral (faint) design. Jacket is cerise.OH has a light grey suit with a purple tie and white shirt. Just have to see if I need new shoes now and a bag. Nothing on my head.

So that is a relief.

Well done ladies. I'm glad you are sorted and can now enjoy waiting for your big days.

I can just picture you in those colours. Your outfit sounds lovely.

Gwyn

Thanks Gwyn, yes my colours really and more or less what I had in my head but despaired of finding.

Ann


that sounds lovely!



Suzanne ................ I've only just got on, have family visiting!


I do like the sound of your outfit.




Now, go away the pair of you, and enjoy the weddings!!

I have a month yet but have a weeks holiday and a couple of weekends away so did want to get it sorted. Thanks Sylvia

Suzanne, looks like your daughter just might have some good weather for her wedding as the weather is set to change away from the awful constant rain. I do hope so and that she and you have a wonderful day. :-)

I hate hats!! I have a large skull - not a BIG head :-D It's a big skull to hold the big brain hahaha

Was bridesmaid years ago, had to wear a big picture hat. Had to have the hat stretched, then held it on with hatpins. I had a headache for three days lol No, the hatpins were not stuck into my head :-D

The hire shop sounds like a very good idea.

Don't have your outfit, hat, shoes & bag all matching or you'll look like the queen :-)

thanks for your bestwishes everyone,

just come back from the hen wkend in chester,had a gd time but im paying for it today.x :-D

CHANGED MY WHOLE OUTFIT TODAY.

GETTING REALLY STRESSED NOW,IS THIS NORMAL???? :-) :-)

Yep...

You have to get a mental picture of the whole thing together,,,,,,what I found was,,,,,,,,,hats,,,,,,,no no no......but when I took the outfit to the hat shop and tried the whole lot together it worked magic, a fasinator just didnt gel with the outfit........and they did the bag to match. plus some bits of matching jewellery accessories.

I stressed for an evening outfit,but did my girl proud.

I reckon I'd be stressed, but if dau thinks you look good,surely that's what matters.
Think of it now as having two choices !!
You have to feel comfort but smart to suit the occasion.

What do you have now Suzanne ?...Not Guns and Roses get up I hope ;-)

Well, what a relief, I was so afraid the mother of the bride would be wearing the nothing that she had to wear! Wouldnt that have been breathtaking?

Well its all over now,my outfit was admired by lots of people.

weather was the best we had had for months and the bride looked stunning.

on the downside.my 2yr old granddaughter never stopped crying through the whole service and a 3yr old had a bad convulsion in the garden of the hotel before the wedding breakfast (shes fine now)

the evening was great until my sister kicked off and caused a scene,
but overall it was a great day.x :-D

So tell us about the new outfit. Glad it all went off well anyway and that you were lucky with the weather.

So pleased everything went off well




sooooooooooooooo ...................

got a lovely long floaty dress by Geri halliwell for next and a lovely peachy pink lace jacket also from next,six inch peachy pink peep toe shoes to match.

my long hair was back combed at the top and straightened ,and i had a lovely silver headband decorated with flowers.i forgot to buy a bag(CANT BELIEVE I DONE THAT).. :-D

Sound really lovely and yes can belive not buying a bag.-------you was stressed :-D :-D.glad the weather was good, it makes the day.

((((now next time allow a few months to get yourself together and look around before you decide.))).... ;-) ;-) :-D.


ps bet the shoes was off before the dancing.
;-)

It all sounds very pretty Suzanne. 6" heels wow, I wish I could but those days are long gone.

heels stayed on for six hrs,then changed to black six inch heels for the night time ,i have no problem walking or dancing in high heels.x :-D

phew,,,,,,,,,I spent too much time ward walking it ruined me for heels higher than about 3 half inches for a long time..can just about manage car to venue in heels and a bit of jigging about then the feet need a rest.......

i also spend a fair time ward walking,
i got varicose veins instead :-D
