Hi caz think it was you i briefly spoke too about the shop a few months ago. congratulations on the wedding, I hope you had a fab day!

Oh I remember now. I'm glad you got sorted out and I hope your big day goes great for you :)

Thanks caz all seems more real now i have a dress coming!

Hi everyone,

I am at the stage when I am going to go and start trying on dresses. I have been engaged for just over a year and told myself I wasn't allowed to try on dresses until i was back in my favorite pair of jeans. I haven't been able to fit in them for 3 years. I have lost just over 2 stone in 12 weeks and I wore my favorite jeans this weekend. Yey!!!
So it is time for me to try on some dresses. I haven't got a clue what to do?? Do I ring up and book an appiontment?? What underwear should I wear to try dresses on? Who should I take with me?? So many questions!! I need so help if anyone can advise i will be very grateful.
Thanks.

I would recommend to go to Freya Bride, Ecclesall - Ive ordered my dress from there and the women were fantastic!!

I would decide which shops you want to go to and then ring them to see if you need to book an appointment - some say you do but others are pretty ok with you just turning up!!

Good luck with your dress shopping!

Hiya. Yes most of the time you have to make a appointment, it will take aprox 1hour to try 5-6 dresses on, take your mum or bridesmaid with you
(they will be honest with you) don't decide on the day, you need to go away and really decide if you have found your dream dress or not. do your hair and some make up before you go. oh and a strapless bra. Most of all enjoy yourself x

and tell me how you lost the weight :hihi: congrats hun, have fun and I hope you find your dream dress!

I started Slimming world in January. I have been doing it with my OH. I have lost just over 2 stone and he has lost nearly 4 stone. I have another 2 to loose but i am getting there. I have dropped 2 dress sizes since starting so I am very pleased. Can't wait to get trying on some dresses.
Thanks for the tip on the strapless bra. What sort of pants should I wear my tummy is my worst bit? I was thinking of wearing magic knickers???

SMK79 dont wear magic knickers - but if you want take them with you, its best to see how dresses look naturally on you, and then if it looks good with a bit of a tummy then you know how amazing it will look without. although it doesnt matter, you do really need to know what your budget is, as the last thing you want to do is try a dress on and then realise you just cant afford it.

most importantly though is have fun and try not to book too many appointments in one day, spread them out so you can go and get a coffee, or glass of wine and digest which ones you liked and didnt with your entourage.

It should be great fun and one of the most special times for your mum (or other family/friends you are sharing it with) and you to do together so make sure you get the most from it.

alot of brides like shops for different reasons but dont give up if you cant find a dress or felt uncomfortable in one shop, just go to another and start again!!. Good luck, when i open my shop, i hope to see you there!!!

I want to recommend Townend Florist at Gleadless. I cant remember the lady's name but I have been and had a consultation with her today and she is so down to earth, and her prices are very competitive. :thumbsup:

Thanks Em, your right about the tummy thing. I have dropped 2 dress sizes in 12 weeks so I know I can loose more before the big day.
I am looking forward to coming to your new shop. Can't wait to try on Ulrika!!!

Does anyone know of/could recommend any good dressmakers which make wedding dresses please?

try going to blushes bottom of london road ask to try the dizzie lizzie dress i fell in love with it but a bit over my budget

My mum can make dresses and does alterations, it depends on what you are wanting though if you want to give her a ring let me know and I will pass her details on to you.

other than that there is Avorio, in west 1 who make dresses from scratch

I can recommend Looby lou's mom she is great and made a professional job of my wedding dress.Lots of work involved which didn't faze her.

Thanx for your replies, yes if you could pass on your mums details to me that would be great.

I ordered some rose cake toppers and accessories for my wedding from poppylamb on the forum.They are really beautiful and were sent very quickly.I would recommend her work.:)

Hi

We are also going to now be holding Watters Bridesmaids as well.

I have my first delivery tomorrow, so will be putting dresses in the window soon, so let me know what you think!!!!!

How exciting!! Where is Neil Road? I will be looking for dresses soon so will be one of your first customers hopefully! x

Neil road is just off ecceslsall road just before hunters bar roundabout the road on the left and we are there!!.

hopefully see you soon, will pm you with more details when i know exact opening times

thanks em

Yes let us know when you are open as I still need some things and hopefully might see a dress for my matron!

I like the look of the Paloma Blanca dresses..will be looking for my dress in the next 6 months-was thinking about Blushes or La Bella brides...how much are the Paloma Blanca dresses? what is the price range? because I don't want to spend over £1000.

What about price of bridesmaid dresses? I'll be looking for some short dark purple dresses too.

Cheers and good luck with it!

Does that mean that you won't be stocking Charlotte Balbier dresses??

:hihi: my daughter is very impressed someone is naming a 'princess dress' shop after her.....

Just come across this web site and it looks quite good, I had a go at designing a bridesmaid dress and it looked really good for £149. Saw this site advertised in This Morning too.

Just to let you all know I have just walked past Blissful Daze wedding store on West Street and they have put up posters saying they are having a one day sale on Sunday 1 June 2008. Got my dress and its the day after our wedding so too late for me but might help someone out!

Just had a quick look online and they have some nice dresses :)

hi does anybody know of any shops that have a good selection of tea length dresses? i'm looking for a fifties style dress, like Audrey Hepburn in funny face.

Hi,

i'm getting married 20th dec this year and need to start looking for a wedding dress. Just looking for ideas really if anyone knows of any bridal shops that they would recomend. I'm not wanting to spend a fortune as on a tight budget but want something special.

I would recommend Blissful Daze on West Street. Did put a thread on here last night to say that they have put some posters in their window yesterday to say on 1 June 2008 they are having a one day sale but don't know where that thread went! Might be worth a look.

Have a look at Candy Alexander's website.

thanks i might give them a try.

i thought vponsale.com is very nice.it have many different style.the price is very cheap.

blissful daze would be lovely to get some ideas however they are very expensive, there is someone on here called emharrison who is has her own shop and it sounds lovely, also try la bella brides

I went to Blissful Daze and found all their dresses expensive but mucky as well! I was not impressed at all.

I got my dress from Freya Bride (across from Endcliffe Park) and I cannot fault them at all. The ladies there are very helpful and the dresses are beautiful!!

I went to Precious Bridal Rooms in Chesterfield, they were all very helpful.

mine came from ebay :love: not everyones cup of tea I know but I couldnt think of anything worse than standing in a shop and getting lectured for not being a size 10! Mines brand new and came from a UK supplier, and is fantastic quality, its very heavy satin. Its also red lol.

sounds lovely, well done on grabbing yourself a bargin

Threads merged.

Hello, I have recently started making wedding cakes (and other celebration cakes), and have had a couple in Pronuptia on Ecclesall road- will be putting lovely rose petal cupcake cascade in the tomorrow if you fancy a look, and a cake!.

I tend towards more simple, contemporary designs but will work around any ideas. I hand make all the sugar decorations, bar the odd exception so that each cake is a one off design.
