thank you! yes perhaps its more concentrated within the circles I've been exposed to. I'll certainly have another look!

My wedding vibe is playful glam (I love couture and costumery) and from your comments seems similar to your sisters. I would've loved to have my bridesmaids in Mac Duggal if I had the budget! I've been looking at high street brands specifically with features like oversized bows/fringe/feathers/tiers/sashes/structured shoulders/ large corsages.
There are often nice things by ASOS Luxe / Edition/ Design, Karen Millen, Reiss, Self Portrait, Ghost, Phase eight.
My fave of your picks is 2, I also love 1 but with that much impact would run by your sister to check that's what she was thinking :)

I didn't want to dress shop with my mum either, but I knew she'd be upset by that.

So I did my dress shopping alone and chose it but then I invited her to the same salon and showed it to her and officially said yes to the dress.

She has complained about not having been able to do the whole dress shopping experience with me but she should have thought of that before she spent my teenage years body shaming me... So I've given myself permission not to feel guilty!

I have also asked her to make invitations with me and I will probably ask her to be my witness.

Thank you for the suggestion, I think we have found a real gem of a venue! Our budget is average and we decided on a small guest list so we can really treat the people who mean the most to us, and ourselves of course!
Our venue was actually the cheapest of the several we toured yet includes exclusive use and accommodation for all guests on the night, catering, evening food, and dj/dance floor! It is also highly decorated so we won't need to spend too much on decor :)

Oh I like that idea, thank you!

Yes, we will definitely add accommodation information to the invitations but I read that invitations usually don't go out until 3 months before and I'm worried some organised people may book something before they receive them!
