Pics - first dress fitting and hens (aka Bachellorette) night

[manda0812]

Hi all, I have mainly been spending time in the July Brides thread but thought I would step out and post some photos. I had been putting off posting photos of my fitting as I was not 100% happy with my dress or hair but since I have decided to now wear my hair down (it is just below my shoulders) and straight with a few loose bits up and bring the veil forward, I feel much better. Also I had a second fitting (where I forgot to get photos!!) and it fitted better and I was much happier. Just 13 days to go, am very excited about everything and do not feel one bit stressed yet...

 

and to give you a laugh I have posted some photos of my hens night, it was a great night where we all dressed up in costume, the theme was fairytale meets superhero. we started off with cocktails and mexican food then a bus took us to various bars around town. it was a great night and I was so blesses to have so many good friends who wanted to celebrate with me.

 

Horrible side view

Thanks guys, I have been agonising over the dress for weeks and just last weekend I realised it was ok and everything was going to be fine.

 

Oh yes the night was a laugh and so many people came up to us and random people took photos of us, it was hilarious. we have decided we don't need to buy any new clothes, we can just go out in costume every time, you are treated as minor celebs!
