NC as this is identifying! But Center parks, penis beaker, cancel the cheque etc.

I’m getting married in two weeks. Quite a few things have gone wrong along the way, including replanning the whole thing at a new venue after the original one had a huge fire a few months ago.

Anyway, this is a small thing.. but one of my five bridesmaids has just told me she lost the wrap I bought for her. They’re probably going to need them on the day as it’s November!
So I went online to buy her another only to find they don’t sell them any more. I can’t seem to find anything similar.

I was wondering if any of you vipers please have one lying around that I can buy off you?
It’s the showcase, silver satin wrap from Dorothy Perkins. Link here: www.dorothyperkins.com/en/dpuk/product/showcase-silver-satin-wrap-cover-up-8456880

I appreciate this is a small problem but it would look much better if they all match. I’m honestly not a bridezilla Grin

And raining I said “penis beaker, cancel the cheque thing” tongue in cheek. No need to be a nob.

Yes it does!! I ironed a little bit of it so you could see the colour properly, and another pic to show you the kinda matte side

Looks promising!

Yabadee · 21/10/2019 23:09

Argh! Pics didn’t work

IndieTara · 21/10/2019 23:12

@Yabadee is there a label on it anywhere with a product code that might match the ones Op has or would be on the online description ?

Yabadee · 21/10/2019 23:14

Nah there’s no label on it at all @IndieTara

If online gets low on stock they switch it to sold out, so it is worth contacting them.

Aridane · 21/10/2019 23:18

Apologies,mOP - I was Wong about it being on overseas Debenhams. I was getting confused with another one - www.debenhams.com/search/Silver+satin+wrap

So,sorry for leading you up the garden path

And overseas Dorothy Perkins don't work as their stock all comes from the UK

The difficulty is that the wraps have already been reduced in the sale, meaning they have sold out online

Weddinghiccup · 21/10/2019 23:20

@Yabidee I think that’s it then! I will happily pay you for it and pay for postage! Thank you so much.

@Yabadee even. Spelled your username wrong in excitement!

Yabadee · 21/10/2019 23:22

It’s yours if you want it, no need to pay for it. Like I said it was scrunched up in my drawer so obviously not getting put to any use!

PM me your address, I’ll give it a good iron and post it to you.

Weddinghiccup · 21/10/2019 23:22

The labels are a bit unsightly so I bet your mum removed it.

Weddinghiccup · 21/10/2019 23:28

And Flowers for Yabadee! I could kiss you.

A thread to warm the heart.
Yabadee and Weddinghiccup, I really hope that’s the right wrap.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 21/10/2019 23:36

Ooh a happy Mumsnet ending!

starfishmummy · 21/10/2019 23:41

I'd tell her that she needs to buy 5 new matching wraps. That should ensure that she looks properly...

Meshy23 · 21/10/2019 23:45

Love this - the power of mumsnet!

Have a lovely day @Weddinghiccup
