Admittedly its not as beautiful as the one in the article but everything is low-key and i thought if i have an extravagant dress but budget everything else it would look a bit weird in the pics and selfish too.
Mine cost me £30 plus £3 postage..........still gona look fab and saved me a fortune
I admire what you are doing too Miss Kitty ... have no doubts you are going to look absolutely stunning .. gosh, hasn't time flown ? not far off now.

This couple still spent £ 3,000 on their wedding though ! Ok, seemingly small budget these days .. is it crackers or what just to suit other people at the end of the day.

I had to fork out £ 2,000 for my daughter's wedding 18 years ago, and we hired the wedding dress .. still was a lot of money, and what got me was that the groom's parents did not offer a farthing towards it !! (and the marriage only lasted 6 months ..) Is this still the tradition then ? Lots of parents must shake in their shoes when their daughter announces they are going to get married. Doesn't make the marriage any happier, does it.
