Must admit I'm with Rob and NL! :twisted:

But somehow I don't think that'd go down to well!

I thought she looked lovely... but is anyway in my eyes. :grin:

I think it was worth the stress though!

She looks gorgeous Jo - yes, it is worth the stress, doesn't happen often does it - I suppose the next one will be the wedding :-)

. My girls missed out on Proms, but I would have loved for them to have experienced it. I can't count the hugs I've had over the passed few months, after fittings and alterations and "the dress" is finished.

Hope she enjoyed her night :-)

With trainers under the dress?

We sell very nice white or ivory silk pumps to wear with wedding or bridesmaid dresses.

I made my niece a very nice bright green chiffon dress a couple of years ago for her Duke of Edinburgh award - I had to spray paint her docs to match. Bless ...

For our wedding MrsSRD found a beaded handbag that matched her dress perfectly but could she find a pair of shoes to match - could she Henry, so she bought a pair that would do but weren't perfect. A couple of weeks before the day we were in Neal St. in London, on our way to see her daughter play a gig in Covent Garden, and we passed a bead shop that had a tray of the exactly the same beads as the handbag in the window, so she bought a selection and decorated the shoes with them herself.

Does that mean you knew what she'd be wearing?

Yup, we'd been living together for nearly ten years and it's not easy for someone in a wheelchair to get out and about to buy such stuff without their carer.

That's what we could call fate !

Lovely dress!

Last night I watched "Prom night" film which turned out to be a really bad, not at all scary, film with some nutcase murdering lots of people as he tried to get time alone with a girl he had a fixation for (he had escaped from prison where he was serving time for killing her parents and brother three years earlier). Some nice dresses on there too :lol:
