Mother of the Bride!!!
Posted 12-06-12 at 02:44 PM by pure
My eldest daughter called me today to let me know that her boyfriend of 4 years proposed last night and she said 'yes'!!! 
I'm sure that I'm far to young to be 'mother of the bride' but I can't wait!!

What fantastic news!
The dress shopping is great. Take some tissues with you though as when your Daughter finds "The One" you will probably shed a tear as I did.
Don't buy your outfit too soon though.Posted 12-06-12 at 06:38 PM by joe90

Ooh, the dress buying is so lovely. Can be a time for kid gloves, though.
My daughter had set her mind on a Suzanne Neville dress she had seen on the internet. We tracked it down to a shop in our nearest city, and she tried it on.
It was understated, finest silk and tasteful.
It was also underwhelming, very expensive and had a badly set zip (which, when I quietly mentioned to the assistant, she agreed with, and said she had spotted it)
But what to do? It was my daughter's dream, not mine. So I praised all the positive points.
We decided to go and have lunch, after which we visited another shop.
To cut a long story short she ended up with a dream of a dress - at half the price of the first one.
So, take your time, lots of trying on and lots of fun. Enjoy!Posted 12-06-12 at 06:56 PM by dandelionpoppy

Well I'm not going to be buying my dress any time soon - drastic diet needed first
And going to have to save my pennies, as her dad probably won't contribute anything and if I can I would love to be the one who pays for her dress at least whats the average price? Mine was less than £50!!!!!!!

How exciting. I got married 4 weeks ago in Cyprus and it was amazing. I paid £1000 for my dress but one of my clients got her wedding dress from one of these wedding dress events and paid £400 for a dress that was worth 4 grand !!! So well worth going to one of them xxPosted 12-06-12 at 09:56 PM by bombini

Congrats pure, wedding dresses, well monsoon are well priced, so are debenans. When we were shopping for Becky's we were lucky, she got one from a wedding dress shop that was already made up so she only paid £400 for it instead of £1500. The cake was what did our heads in as soon as you say the word wedding, the price jumps from £40 to £100 I'm just grateful I was the mother of the groom, all I had to do was be supportive lol I told my daughter if she ever gets married to elope, she told me she'd sooner have another cat lolPosted 12-06-12 at 10:09 PM by Susie H
