Mumsnet Talk

Go on. Tell me it's a terrible idea and that I can't do it...

I say do it.

But only because my dress is tea length too and I like that idea

You can have whatever you like, style wise, on your wedding day.

Oh no you've talked me into it

I've actually already bought a dress - but I don't feel too bad for changing it as it was in the Monsoon sale, so not like it was £hundreds. Looking at the beautiful dresses on Dragonfly and have an appointment next week... I've already bought the bridesmaid dresses and I love them. Think I could maybe get a sash in the same colour to tie in... Exciting!

Your wedding dress would have to look very wedding-y to hold it's own against a group of full length dresses, IMHO

Could the bridesmaid dresses be a shorter length too?

Families I've already bought BM dresses

This is the sort of thing I'm looking at

TBH it probably won't happen as I'm 5'1 1/2 (the 1/2 inch is important!) so will in all probability look ridiculous

No, the wedding police will come and take you away.

Oh Chacha, that's what I thought...

Have whatever you blooming want. And enjoy it!

I shall! Have already changed the date and venue, dress is just small fry really!

Well, I am! Wanna share a ride to the wedding Jail ?

I am wearing a tea length but can't find a halfway decent bridesmaid dress I like to 'go with' it, so I am just getting dresses I like that suit my bridesmaids for them, and a dress I like that suits me for me! They are COMPLETELY different, and I could not care less!

You could have the bm dresses shortened by a dressmaker.

Wear both? I did! Although we had a 2day wedding. 'Proper' dress the first day for ceremony, reception etc, then 50's style the next night. Ur wedding ur rules

Ha chicken that would be amazing!

London jail it is ;) got my appointment on Thursday. Will need to wait & see...

eeee have totally ordered a new dress it's beeeeaaaauuuutiful!
