Bridesmaid Dresses

OK, I am back on board now - full of energy and ready to blog!!!

As mentioned briefly a couple of blogs ago, the bridesmaids have purchased their dresses and shoes!!! They have also chosen the hair and make-up artists for the day.

Quyen, Josline and Patty left Wollongong at 10am determined to found their dresses! I stayed at my place in St. Peters - waiting in anticipation of a phone call to say the search was over.

They had a look at a shop in Corrimal... no phone call...
They travelled up the F6 Freeway from Wollongong to Miranda... no phone call...
1PM... the journer moves on closer to the city...

Arriving at Birkenhead Point, the girls were determined to find something at this place!!! And, they did! The dresses and the shoes were purchased at Birkenhead Point Shopping Centre. For those of you that don't know it, this centre is known as a warehouse outlet centre where chain stores put all of their remaining stock to sell far below regular prices.

It means alot for Quyen and I to save many details until the day. We don't want to give too much away about the wedding, but rest assured that we will post photos up as soon as we are able. We are happy to share hints of the day though!

The dresses were from purchased from Harts - a formal dress shop with a few stores all over Australia. They are all of a similar style. Josline's dress has beading, and the girls made the decision to purchase the other two similar dresses without the beading (they didn't have any others with beading :( so three weren't an option...). However, the lady to do the alterations is able to match the beading on the other two dresses to have them matching!! The girls were happy with this as they beading ties back to the shoes.

Needless to say, all is relaxed and calm now the dresses have been found, and the girls are no longer running around using up any valuable time so close to the wedding!
