... so elegant, but so unusual too - I can just imagine you wearing it.
BTW, if it's not too sore a subject, will you be inviting that wonderful "friend" of yours who didn't want someone with IBS to be her bridesmaid?

thanks everyone!
Re other plans not a lot going on at the moment. We have booked the photographer, DJ, band, church and hotel.
My sisters and I have chosen the [url=http://tjformal.zoovy.com/product/FOR75111B]bridesmaids' dresses[/url.
I have chosen an invitation and Padhraig has to "approve" it still. We ha
I am currently thinking about flowers, we have booked the florist for the church but I am not sure what to do about my bouquet yet, so suggestions from anyone who knowsb flowers would be great.
I have to eventually get shoes and bridal jewellery too and for the girls.
The cake has to be ordered closer to the day and we really should order a videographer too.
Padhraig and the bestman and groomsman will probably look at their suits in June.
Next thing is to finalise the guest list which involves input from parents and more hassle no doubt but all for a good cause!
Thanks for asking!

thanks Nat
I kinda showed Padhraig a pic before, he is useless at noticing things though,to him a long white dress is a long white dress, (or in this case a skirt and top) I am not superstitious, I know that some brides refuse to divulge any info re their wedding dresses to anyone, where I have emailed the pic of mine to all my friends1

...well what I had was a hand tied bouquet of ivory roses and the florist did a wonderful surround thing with dried lavender and seashells. The bridesmaids had ivory roses and lavender bouguets and the corsages and buttonholes were ivory roses and lavender too.
I think hand-tied bouquets look best, especially with a dress like yours (not that dis-similar in outline to mine). And picking a theme and sticking to it is nice, but yours should be the most special bouquet!
I had one (expensive) florist do all of the above and then someone else organied the church flowers. remember to take pictures (or even material samples) of your dress and the bridesmaids dresses to the florist and decide on any themes you are having beforehand - for us it was the colours ivory, pink and lilac, lavender everywhere and the fact that we were having the receoption by the sea!
Also, have a good chat to any florists you're considering before committing yourself as your bouquet is a very personal thing and you want it to be better than perfect. My florist picked up on loads of stuff I didn't tell her and my bouquet was a dream bouquet!

OoooOOoohhh.. I love it! I never get into all that wedding stuff, but I LOVE that dress! If i ever have a formal wedding I would want one just like it, I was under the impression that choices for wedding dresses were only the traditional poofy white dress.
You will look so beautiful on your wedding day!

There is a photo of Cailin's dress in her original post called 'I ordered my wedding dress!!' at the top of Page One of this thread. If you are looking at that post and can't see the photo, then I don't know what to do, but maybe someone who knows more about computers will reply.
The dress is gorgeous!

thanks so much everyone for your lovely comments, especially Linz for all your flowers advice.
I was surfing looking for bouquet ideas and came across this site and I love the bouquets, and they are REALLY
reasonable. I am not sure if I would use the designs for real flowers silk bouquets I particularly like Purple Rose Handtie (2 Dozen Roses)and Purple Rose Toss Bouquet

Sorry but those are just two words you don't expect to see together so I had to ask what it was! Call it immature, but I still giggle at funny words. 
Beautiful flowers, BTW! Can't wait to see after photos.

I know Jennifer, I am learning so much wedding vocabulary- I understand that a nosegay is a type of bouquet.
I had never heard the word bustle used to describe clothing before ...its the way you hook up your wedding dress train..I'm sure that there are others too..

I got married in 2002...my sister is getting married this fall. Sinead, if you need any help or advice, feel free to email me. I would be happy to help you with anything.
Also - if you want to check out www.michaels.com there are some beautiful wedding arrangements with instructions on how to make the bouquets. I'm not sure if you have a Michaels there, but it's a huge craft store (I may own shares in it by now LOL) but they have some wonderful wedding favors, centerpiece and bouquet advice. Also - they have ideas for wedding invitations, RSVP cards and pew bows....everything. We have bought all my sisters invites there and then I am just jazzing them up with some ribbon etc. They are going to be beautiful of course LOL
Congrats on your upcoming wedding!
