Was due to elope in October and I'd started to make my own dress.
However, I found out last week I'm pregnant again, so we're bringing it forward to 4 weeks time (eep!). I'm not fussed about a having a big wedding, but childish as it sounds, I've always dreamed about having a beautiful wedding dress. I'm very girly but have never, ever had an excuse to dress up, or wear something gorgeous and I'm determined to do so just the once!
I'm still going to finish my dress, even if it's only so DD(7) can have it when she's older (FAR too many hours have gone into it, I've done so much embroidery). There's not a chance in hell it'll be finished in 5 weeks though.
Budget is tiny - about £100 - as I've already spent on material for the original dress, and there's a baby to save for now.
I'm size 12, 5"4, prefer sleeves and a "fit and flare" style as I've got fat arms/stomach - but am open to other suggestions.
Pic attached is what I've been recreating, only with sleeves (to give an idea of what "look" I like), but I realise I'm not going to get anything like this for my timescale and budget!
Wedding is simple registry office, in-n-out job, but the building is very pretty and rural.
Please throw your ideas at me, I'm so crap at this!
