here comes the bride

So one of my best friends in Cyprus is getting married. Miss Dominika Gajdziel is going to make a wonderful wife and a beautiful bride. And in order to be a beautiful bride you must have a beautiful dress.  That being said, today was dress shopping day. Armed with starbucks and a variety of coloured post it notes for our voting system, we caused chaos at Pronovias in the centre of Nicosia.

Ive never been wedding dress shopping so didn't really know what to expect. We arrived for our appointment and had a consultation with one of the assistants. You can choose up to 6 dresses from the catalogues, but Domi already knew exactly what she wanted. We were then escorted upstairs to our private dressing area. It was one room, with a separate changing area and leather sofas for the judging panel (us) and lots of full length mirrors strategically placed around your very own catwalk!

With 6 dresses to choose from it should have been hard. But dress number 1 was the bride to be's favourite from the website and our reaction, stunned silence (and for us silence is a rarity) it was safe to say we found a winner! Dress number 2 was also beautiful, but 3, 4 and 5 paled in comparison to the beauty of number 1.

Obviously, photographs are a no no. We don't want to spoil the surprise or let any secrets out the bag just yet. But the expert judging panel were more than happy to pose for a snapshot of this happy day!

Thank you to Misia for the colour coded post it notes. The Gajdziel's are an organised bunch!
