Well eldest son has just phoned and it is a christmas wedding, 21st Dec. I thought it was going to be next April, the question is what do i wear? had ideas for a spring wedding, but no idea about a winter one and the reception is in the middle of the countryside, ooh wonder if we will get snowed in

Sounds exciting Ruth. I would go for long & burgundy velvet!

Think it will be something like that Maggie, if i could get away with wearing a long velvet coat, i would love that

rhubarb, what about wellies, sea boot socks, thermals, a couple of cardigans, fleece lined trousers, a parka, scarf and gloves. Oh and mabye a small knapsack with rations just in case.

I think a long velvet coat would look amazing. My sister married on Boxing Day & had a red velvet cloak pover her wedding dress.

I found it hard enough finding something to wear for my Goddaughter's wedding last September but a December wedding I think that I would have problems with. I also agree that a long velvet coat would be nice.

Will start looking for a long velvet coat

Just looked on here and would you believe i think i have found the perfect thing

with fur lined boots and a big fur cossak type hat, and don't forget the thermal undies!!! If you throw wild bird seed rather than confetti you will do the birds a huge favour at that time of the year too. What part of the country is the wedding being held in - is it likely to be snow?

It will be in Lancaster ,then up the Trough of Bowland for the reception, so could be a bit nippy

Oh Ruth! How yummy. I am thinking velvet too, bit Goth, bit Steampunk, velvet, satin, lace and floaty bits.
You have mail.
