Oh it is LOVELY! And it does look so much better on you! You will be a beautiful bride!

Congratulations.

Defo better on you than the model :)

whereisshe · 13/03/2014 18:30

It looks so good on you! What about mint if you want green shoes? 50s style kitten heels would work.

I read the thread first, thinking "yeah right, course it looks better on her than the model". Then I looked at the photos. It really does, OP, it's the perfect dress for your lovely figure. You will look amazing.

You look absolutely stunning Smile

Genuinely, it looks absolutely lovely.

It's gorgeous and for some reason I love the fact you're standing on your bed :o.

What's your wall paint colour? Is that sage? It's lovely.

strawberryblondebint · 13/03/2014 18:45

I wanted to look all fifties so I'm soooo chuffed. I love kitten heels. Only issue is I need a wide fit shoe and I'm a three. Challenge or what. I also need 2 flower girl dresses for dd aged 10 and dd -nearly 3. Work your magic style laydees.

You look awesome in that dress Grin

strawberryblondebint · 13/03/2014 20:14

Ohh I love those flower girl dresses. This could be the colour theme. Hmmm

I love teamEdwards suggested bridesmaids dresses. I might switch the flower though.

I guess you will have to consult your girls over their dresses though.

Not sure if 9-10 would fit your eldest but I love these dresses and they would look fab with your style of wedding dress

alienbump · 13/03/2014 20:18

First go at adding a pic (not feeling optimistic...)

You look AMAZING I agree with it looking better on you than the model.
Think those bridesmaids dresses posted by alienbump are so cute too

Roussette · 13/03/2014 20:31

I absolutely love the dress and you look stunning in it.

Really think kitten heels wouldn't be right - they can make anyone's legs look dumpy if your not careful. Whereisshe's shoes are spot on.
