The story of four Dresses




Trust me to pick the most difficult way to plan something
I started out with what I thought was any easy task and idea…. Oh how wrong was I!

I’m not typical and traditional really isn’t my thing so when I thought bridesmaid dresses, what did I do… Mix and match!





  

Something like this was the image I had in my mind…









 
My biggest thing was I wanted my girls to feel beautiful on the day too and comfortable in what they were wearing. So I said ladies the colour is Blue, any dress, any shade of blue is fine just maybe make it long so you’re not too cold.
Now I must commend these beautiful ladies they did an amazing job and we made it in the end! Many many thanks lovelies! ! <3

When ordering dresses online prepare to be disappointed! One out of the four ordered worked :/ Luckily one of my girls could wear the dress that didn’t quite work for the other. Then it was a mad rush to find dresses for the other two girls.

Would you believe, that finding blue in a dress is much harder then one would think, months before we were on a frantic search to find the perfect dress for each girl and what colour was there no dresses to be found in… you guessed it blue! Gah it was looking dire towards the end.
Many dresses were bought and taken back. But we prevailed determined to make it work, with contingency plans working in the back ground for the “just in case”.

 Looking back I think if you were to put that old country music in the background the ‘typical’ chase scene between the cop and the crook where it’s sped up and the cop chases the crook then the crook is chasing the cop and so on as you watched us searching for blue dresses, it would be amusing to watch and I suppose I can laugh at it now because in the end it all worked out. 

About a couple weeks before the wedding what magically decides to make an appearance…  
Blue dresses in all the shops! I was cheezed of to say the least! 
But God provided beautiful dresses for my beautiful ladies!!




And here it is the end result! They looked absolutely stunning!!
What a journey!  
Brides if your looking at dresses dear goodness just make it easy on yourself or prepare to run the hard yards!!

Peace x
