1st day of wedding dress shopping- already mad!

[luminarphrases]

i went in several shops- am completely out of ideas.

one shop told me i was an unusual size (i'm size 14 and 5'3 in high-ish heels) and would find it difficult. i'm not looking for anything frou-frou and would rather it was pink (nice pink, not jordan pink)

can anyone help me with good websites, good shops (in manchester/cheshire) or just general advice? thanks

This sort of thing?
This (possibly a bit Come Dancing)
This
All from this page.

But at the prices. Do you have a budget in mind?

i liked them, but you are right about the prices! the first one is very nice if a bit too plain maybe, but exactly the right pink

thanks

Not strictly a wedding dress, but depending on formality of the dress you want this monsoon one is at the other end of the price scale.

Found that first one cheaper

(or is it the same one?) Not sure now.

How about something like this where you can choose the colour of the underskirt etc.

its in a hotel for the ceremony, then a marquee in (posh auntie's) garden for after, so really it can be as formal/informal as we decide. the monsoon one is nice but looks like it is maybe a bit long for me. i didn't even think of monsoon today, but will look next time im in town

oh i like the changing underskirt thing- nice and subtle and the tea rose colour is perfect, can't see a price tho

YOu have to click on the 'price code legend' link - one bell apparently means 'under £599'.

Looks like you can do the same with all of these (choose the colour of various bits), but they vary in price.

oh yeh- didn't see that. under 599's not far off the sort of amount we were planning on, so that's ace

There are monsoon sale shops too!!!!
