I'm currently doing some research on long lasting lipsticks, has anyone got any brand recommendations? I'm thinking of maybe Huda or Charlotte Tilbury? I don't want to be reapplying my lipstick all wedding day!
I’d definitely recommend Charlotte Tilbury but, I think it depends on your lips tbh. MUA’s always finish with a gloss when I have mine done (not like 00s Avon gloss) so maybe try one of them now?

Most recent dilemma…

Would you use a company who you love, who haven’t been great at communicating but really seem to get what you’re trying to do, or a company who are really easy to contact, and very responsive but don’t fill you with confidence that they’ll actually deliver what you want?

I would probably go for the one i have the most confidence in with delivering on the day - thats all that really matters. re the non communication i do find phonecalls work best. emails can go to spam etc.

Put a deposit on my wedding dress at the weekend... Feeling like I haven't made the correct choice ever since but I guess that's normal..I hated every other dress that I tried on and there was a few 😂 I'm guessing its completely normal 🤪🤪

I’m like that and then I go back and look at the photo of mr in the dress and remember why I love it and chose it!

It's gonna be a long few months of it 😂 I've to go find a veil, the one I liked in the shop was 450€ and I'd rather spend it elsewhere than on something I'm going to be wearing for an hour or two. I hear JJ house is alright, anymore recommendedations? It needs to be a champange colour as my dress is ivory, 😂

So I make my fiance watch Say Yes to the Dress with me. And every time we watch he offers opinions on certain dresses.
I sent him 15 dresses from a variation of shops i was going to book in appointments for, and out of 15 he likes 3...
All from them same shop thankfully. But 3 out of 15!

Are you showing your fiancé your dress? My fiancé doesn’t get an opinion on my dress. I’ve not shown him any dresses and he has no idea what I’m wearing! He won’t know a thing until the big day! 😃

I'm not going to show him the one I eventually pick i just wanted to see what style he liked so sent him loads I had seen I was going to try. I will eventually pick which ever I really like and just hope he likes it too 😂

If he loves you then I’m sure he will like whatever dress you wear! I wouldn’t worry about it! I’m not worried about whether my fiancé likes mine (although I’m certain he will as he likes me in anything 😂) I’m just bothered about how I feel in the dress! 😃

My fiancé won’t even talk about my dress/shoes/anything to do with me on the day, aside from saying that he doesn’t want me to go crazy with makeup (I don’t wear much anyway and wouldn’t want to). I think it’s really sweet, I didn’t expect him to be that traditional.

It’s annoying because I want to wear my shoes in and we don’t go out separately very often 🤣

Oh Christ this sounds like making a rod for your own back 😅

You never know, you may end up with something totally different anyway - I know I did! Went through three different iterations before I found my dress and my partner would not expect it at all, because I didn’t myself.

I showed him pictures from my first trip shopping but he didn’t get to state a preference either haha.

Enjoy dress shopping! It’s so exciting when you find the one 😁

How long is everyone's entrance song?

I love a song that's just under 2 minutes. It's not a long aisle but worried it's too short?
 
My wedding coordinator finally replied to my email answering my questions 😅 I can relax a bit now 6 months to go!

I’m going to my first wedding dress appointment on Saturday! Any tips? Anything I should take? I have no idea on hair or shoes yet as probably depends on the dress.... but thinking maybe I should take a clip to pin hair up so I can see what it’s like?

Wear white or nude underwear!

Defo seamless nude underwear! I took shoes to my appointments but one boutique have their own stock that haven’t been worn outside so you might be better checking their policy on that. Good luck, so exciting! 😁

Mine is 3 mins but I’ll probably get them to fade it out because I won’t need that much time.
 
Thanks everyone! 🙏🏻 I have a nude strapless bra so that’s ok. I don’t have any nude coloured pants though 😂 so a trip to JL is needed.

I think I might pack some shoes just in case. Can’t hurt to have them with me I guess.
