Wedding Day Bliss?

Here are some of the items I wore at my sister in laws wedding... I say some as I had a clothes malfunction so to speak.

 

1. My dress had to be taken back 3/4 times due to some missing gems. Then when it came to sewing it my mum found it so hard to peel off the ones that needed to be peeled in order to sew it so many needles broke. The dress ended up a little wide but worst of all so low that I revealed a bit more then I desired and had to make sure I covered myself up.
2. My purse I noticed in the car had some beads missing a long the top so after using it (as I had no choice by then), I gave it back but the store only does credits and not refunds. I now need to go back and chose something else.
3. My sister had rushed us in to getting ready and leaving even though when we got there I had a long wait. In my rush I was fastening the strap and it broke! I could no longer wear those sandal and had to give them back. I liked them too much so got an exchange... hopefully those will survive.
4. My ring is an old one but by the end of the night the main gem in the middle had fallen out. My sister wore my blue one in a similar style and the gem fell out of that too.

Still it all turned out alright on the night so to speak but doesn't it make you feel so damn unlucky?

Chocolate anyone!

My sister-in-law is getting married next week and we weren't sure what to get her between my sister, myself and another sister-in-law as we didn't want to get the traditional of Mithai

Just imagine if all 3 of us got her a tray each plus her other guests its a lot and will go to waste. I said to my sister we should get her instead a flower arrangement, chocolates and a fruit basket. My sister agreed but ended up getting two flower arrangements in the colours of her Mehndi dress and she was getting annoyed with me because I couldn't understand why we had to get 2! Isn't it weird to get 2 flowers arrangements in exactly the same colours but also the plan I had for the chocolates also meant that we'd end up with something also floral looking. In the end I didn't want anything to do with the flowers as my sister was being rude about the fact she didn't understand what my problem was.

 

Anyway a couple of years ago I went to a Mehndi where someone turned up with a Ferreo Rocher arrangement and it looked fantastic that my sister and I were both starring at it, we can't remember thought what exactly it was. My sister couldn't remember it so did a search online and came up with trees but with having left it all so late the deadlines are for 3 weeks from now. We even asked at the flower arranging shop and that lady said she did them but because they didn't pre buy the Ferreo Rochers in advance and they weren't on offer at the moment it would work out really expensive. My younger brother came across someone on Facebook who did it at a decent price and lives in Bradford. We sent her a message but she hasn't got in touch and I really hope she does and makes us a really nice one.

 

Ours won't quite be like this but doesn't it look amazing.

Take a look at this website, it has a lot of other delicious trees

They tend to have a different pot, especially clear ones with sweets in. When going to the flower arrangement shop she also told us that she could put them inside the flower arrangement too. Looking online I came across these that look so much more fun.

I'm going in search of chocolate now. I'm guessing you will be too as these just look so yummy. I've also come to realise that maybe I could have a try making something similar myself. I'll have to have a look to see how they get the Ferrero Rochers to stay in.
