hey Ash! No, Ben hasn't seen my dress, and I'm not letting him (he doesn't want to anyway)! It's fun for us to have the surprise, but your reasons for FI seeing the dress makes complete sense!
I have some pictures on my moms computer (since fi and I share our laptops) so I can post them tomorrow or something. I actually have 2 dresses, one ceremony/AHR and one TTD... I will be a three dress bride actually, since I need to buy one for FI's family reception. It is far less formal than my family's (even that is pretty informal) but at FI's I don't need to wear my dress! PHEW that was a speel! Haha
Ta I think its a great idea to go to MAC, I have done that with my regular makeup already and its great!! Just tell them ifyou don't like a lot of foundation, because if no they will pile it on... haha
