So the Mad Men wedding dress didn't fit as the measurements given were wrong (6 inches smaller than it said!) I was a little bit sad as it was a really lovely dress. Thankfully the seller was great and has refunded me and apologised. (I will be visiting her again as her stuff is lovely!)
I've made a pretty quick turn around though and went to Nottingham and found a new dress in Backlash Clothing. The lady in there was lovely and there were so many dresses to choose from! I tried on quite a few including some pretty epic Shirley Bassey fishtail numbers covered in tulle, net and pearls! Sadly there were no room for my boobs so I didn't get one of those (probably a good thing! I don't think Sheffield Town Hall or my Fiancee would be ready for that!)
I did find one in there though and spent all day wandering round thinking about it so I went back and bought it. I really like it but it needs a bit of tweeking as it's more an outer dress (I think it would be more porno dress if not tweeked.... it's see through)
So I now have a little customising mission which makes it all the more fun! Now when people ask where I got my dress I can say this bit was from here and I made this bit and blah blah blah!
Tomorrow we are meeting the planner at the restaurant/pub we want our wedding meal at. We went last night for tea and got our heads around the menu and drinks so we can go to meet the lady and be prepared. It's quite exciting now things are starting to come together. 5 months and I'll a grumpy old Mrs!
