Hi Wollies
For the first time since the whole engagement/wedding thing started I'm after getting major butterflies in my tummy because I have just ordered my dress

This is a really big deal for me as I have been so laid back about the whole thing and haven't been doing much at all regarding the big day.
Right now I'm excited and worried about the dress, how it fits, will it arrive in time(coming from the States)....fingers crossed everyone....
Still of course LOAAAAAAADS to do but thats one MAjor part taken care of, isn't it?

Keep up the great work Wollies, I'm addicted to all the posts and fantastic advice

Can we see it? Im so nosey I love seeing other peoples dresses, possibly because I'm too indecisive to make any decisions on my own!

hi Littlelily
I'd post a pic only I might get recognised and I'd prefer people to see the dress on the day. I'll describe it for you. Its maggie sottero not boob tube flows straight down with short train, sorry I know that's vague but H2b is sometimes noseying here

Yeah, I bought it from bridalgown.net I did a bit of research on this site and it seemed to be fairly ok, just that the orders can take a bit longer than other online bridal shops in some cases(hope mine isn't one of those cases!!!) pushing it for time if I have to get it altered...

No i'm in the wild west:-) as yet have no dressmaker sorted but hope to have it all in place before the dress arrives...
The saving is unreal... I just couldn't ignore that sort of money. my dress is less than half price...if i get caught for customs it will still be only half price
