Wedding Dress Shopping Round 3

After a completely mental and fun weekend at Radio 1's Hackney weekend (helllllo Jay Z!), I got back from London just in time to watch the England v Italy game, and get to bed. I crashed out early because I had a special shopping trip planned this morning with my future mother in law at The Harrogate Wedding Lounge.

So it was time for wedding dress shopping, round 3. I previously bought my other dress for my American wedding at the wonderful Kleinfeld. Besides my ordering over the internet disaster, I had tried dresses on at a few other shops but hadn't quite found what I was looking for.

My future mother-in-law and I had a wonderful time, and I tried on quite a few dresses - roughly 8 or so, before finding one I really liked.

The dress I ended up with was called Caprice, a Maggie Sottero dress, with the most dramatic back bar.  I wasn't planning on finding anything, and was really surprised when I couldn't stop thinking about it. It's totally different from my American wedding dress (a very lacy number), but so classic and lovely. I think it will work well for the town hall wedding!

Just goes to shows that sometimes what you end up picking isn't always what you have in mind when you start shopping!
Have some photos of the model with the dress, and one of me with the sample size dress on.
