Well, that's it really. DD is 17 months and my shape is decidedly different than before! I have no idea where to begin on the dress hunt, but need to get down to it as I only have 3.5 weeks to go until the big day...

I want a "knock-their-socks-off" dress as the last time I saw half the guests I was 6 mos pregnant and about 3.5 stone heavier than I am now! I tend to dislike a lot of patterns/though not completely opposed to the idea. Not afraid of colour, so long as it suits me. Prefer more fitted or fit then flare rather than tent/maxi-dress - not trying to look pregnant again!

I'm 5'6", pale complexion, brunette w/ highlights, curvy figured sz 8ish.

So dress me up!!! All (ok, well Most) suggestions welcome! TIA!

this is a good place to narrow down the search, be inspired.

You can shop by colour, size, price etc.

Not totally sure yet...In some ways depends on how much I like the dress/shoes/etc and how re-usable they are... Think absolute max for dress around £200-250, preferably max £300-350 for all. DH would probably prefer I say something silly like £100 all in, but then again he's a man. And may even try to convince me to wear something in my closet which doesn't fit.
