Wedding planning

[fudgebox]

All three are happy in their usual size. The waist band is slightly tight on them all though. Quality is really lovely, only thing I'd note is the zip on the back is quite exposed. My bridesmaids are having their hair down so not a problem, but it'd be visible with an up do/short hair

I'd also say it's a slightly darker green than the photos make it look

Thank you! Mine are having their hair down too so that would be fine

My mum keeps sending me pictures of the lightest baby pink lacy dresses as potential MOB outfits..

I’m off bridesmaid dress shopping this weekend with my sisters. They’re both gorgeous and will look great in anything, I’m also happy for them to choose different dresses (just the same colour) so I’m not expecting any dramas

It defo seems that a lot of bridesmaid dress stockists have done away with navy options in the run up to spring and summer though.. so that’s annoying. I probably should have got them with a year to go but I didn’t even have my own then!

Probably a niche question but has anyone picked something a bit different to walk down the aisle to in terms of music? We nearly lost my dad just before Covid so he’s walking me in and I want to pick something for us, but my MiL says it should be mine and CoffeeDaddy’s
choice…

As long as H2B is happy with your choice I think that would be lovely.

I think it's a lovely idea, you about to spend your life with Coffee Daddy so why not have a song for you and your dad.

Rule no1 of marriage: always ignore your MIL and her “advice”

I say definitely pick something for you and your dad! My finance has said he's happy for me to pick and surprise him with our aisle song so I think as long as your first dance and maybe your exit songs are for you and your partner, that would be fine!

My MiL has sent dress ideas for her that are basically white
Happy bridesmaid shopping!

Well we’re having a brides and groom’s first dance so we’ve picked those as a surprise, and our exit music is the Marvel theme (don’t ask!!) so I don’t think it’s too big an ask. Definitely no on a white dress for anyone if you ask me

Oh my mum is wearing white but, I picked the dress so it matches everything!

I’d love to see how that worked

Oh I’ll bombard you with screenshots
This is my mum’s dress, she’s only late 50s and still looks really young so she’s got something more ‘trendy’

This is MIL, she is in her 60s, very posh and more refined. It matches my partners suit who is wearing beige

Then I’ve had the bridesmaid dresses made to look like these below but, in champagne and a subtle slit on the side

Okay you have officially changed my mind SO stylish and so different to anything I’ve seen! (It’s not my style so I won’t be stealing ideas heehee!)

We went to Nigel Rayment for my mum’s dress he was so lovely and she found a little sparkly number that really suited her. She was quite nervous cause she’s a plus size woman but they had a lot of choice (bleedin expensive though)

It’s a lovely boutique, the staff are so helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend to anyone this way up. I actually seen some dresses I wanted for myself for formal events
