Have any of you got your bridesmaids sorted yet? I'm having one bridesmaid but so far not having much luck finding a nice dress for her. We're based in Dublin so suggestions welcome!
Also, how many different shades of white are there?! The search for a matching flower girl dress is getting ridiculous now. I bought two dresses neither of which match my dress so they look weird next to mine. When do communion dresses appear in the shops?!
Debenhams is a popular choice for bridesmaids I got mine on ASOS and they are fabulous only problem is finding matching dresses for my junior bridesmaids also. I never thought finding two childs dresses would cause so much trouble but if you want anything other than white its nearly impossible! anyway try roco clothing for your flower girls they have a lot of really well priced white / ivory styles not sure when communion styles come out but I'd imagine it is early next year

I really don't know about that! The band we ended up falling in love with was about €500 over projected budget, and at €2300 the dress is nearly €1000 more than I'd anticipated paying in my own head
so I guess it's time to start playing the lotto :P 0 -

You might be able to save 1500 in other areas.0 -

Dresses are expensive but there's a reason as there's so much work goes into them. I would have said 2500 was an average budget for a dress. You can get them for less but there's a lot more higher end designers available in Ireland which pushes up the average.0 -

Depends on priorities. Some brides are happy to spend a lot more. I paid 2200 and had a budget of 3800 so felt it was a great saving for me. I love my dress and can't wait to wear it. I feel I've also paid for a year of excitement as well as the day wearing it0 -

My dress was a sample, perfect condition & only €700, 1450 to order! Such a bargain I bought a second dress for dancing, a messily €150! I absolutely adore both dresses & despite watching hours of say yes to the dress while on maternity I don't have any second thoughts! Ive spent just over 1k on both mine & 3 bridesmaids (debenhams on sale), they are as nice as anything I've seen at a wedding!
The dresses & a great package with the hotel are my main savings! Blowing the budget on photographer, cinematographer & entertainment

I'm the week before you have most of the big stuff done church, venue, band, dress, photographer, entertainment, marriage course, suits, bridesmaid dresses, honeymoon booked, picked our rings last weekend still have transport to sort, a lot of diy to do and about two stone to loose so that ticking clock is definitely getting louder!0 -

One more thing ticked out the list - Florist booked. I'm really happy with her. She is a lovely lady and showed me loads of photos of her previous work so was able to tell me what worked and didnt work at our venues.. Which is always a help!
That One Fab Day event sounds really nice..Wish I was free to go Was going to go to the wedding & honeymoon show this weekend but don't see it happening now. Maybe I wont be missing out on anything though? That's what I'm telling myself anyways....!!
Is anybody getting favours for their guests? If so what? I'm trying to think of ones to place on everyone's table setting. What did ye think of the Tayto & Bread sambo favours in Athlone at the weekend!!??0 -

Would love to go too, but I'll be way too pregnant to enjoy it
A good friend is making little candles in the shape of a three-tier wedding cake in our colour theme and we are putting them in coloured net bags with a few sweets from a Roses/Quality Street tin
