#Bridal Dress ideas for a registry wedding on a budget

Diana came in to see me and she said she wanted a simple dress for her wedding. She didn't want a white dress as it was her fourth wedding. Yes! fourth!

She is lovely and was so frank about how rubbish the other 3 husbands had been.

"So is this fourth time lucky?" I asked "Is he the one?"
"That's where we get it wrong." Diana said with a smile "I don't think there is that one man for any woman. It's all hit and miss".

So we had a chat for about two hour on why there must be that one man for you. I strongly believe there is and she believes otherwise. Her appointment time was over and we hadn't even embarked on the business of the day.

Back to the dress. After 3 expensive wedding dresses and the resulting divorces, all she wanted this time was a budget dress.

"Who knows if he is even worth it?" She said
"Surely, if you are marrying him Diana, he must have proven himself". I answered.
"Come on Rosy!" She smiled sarcastically "People can really pretend".

I was keen on getting to know why she thought that people are largely pretentious so i asked "Do you consider yourself a good judge of character." To which she responded, " No, not really. "

After some laughs on the "bogus" previous husbands, i was keen to know why she was getting married again and yet she seemed happy and independent. Was it worth the stress?
And she said " I told you, people can really pretend. Am the chief pretender. Deep down i can't be alone. I want company all the time."

We settled on this nude chiffon dress with lace bodice and a hint of pearl and diamante' waist detail.
At only £59.99, she was a happy 4th time lucky bride.

Cheers to Diana and fingers crossed that this is it!

Dressing for an all white house party

Nina came to see me in panic mode a week ago. Last month, her friend gave her an invite to a house party which she acknowledged.

On the day of the party, she was all set. Her dress looked perfect and her  make-up was flawless. She was about to drive off when she decided to set up her Satnav for directions.

She got the invite out of her bag to check the post code and there it was glaring in her face. There was a dress code! A tiny note at the bottom of the card reading "Dress code : all white please."

How did she miss it? She was in royal blue!

So in panic she was wondering whether to call in and give an excuse or go for the party and look rude and stupid in blue. A thought crossed her mind that she could pop into the shops an see if she would get a dress at less than £50. Otherwise she was going to go home and sleep.

When she told me her story, i only had one option available in stock for her at that price point. The dress was a perfect fit and she loved it.


 


Note to self: Always look out for the dress code on any invite and if none given, call the host and ask for confirmation that there's no dress code to avoid last minute stress.
