Hi Ladies After a severe dress disaster I have managed to get a second dress sorted, but it needs some altering. Does anyone have any good tailor recommendations (not at hefty prices) in the Barsha (new Dubai area) as I am very strapped for time I don't think I will be able to make it into Satwa/Meena Bazaar for fittings often enough. Thank you ! Hey - Google 'Bride Club ME' - It's a website dedicated to giving UAE based brides lots of ideas, tips and supplier contacts. Should be of help - Also, try Moirai Style, Barbaranne, she has made me a last minute veil and has helped my best friend alter her wedding gown...also, Anne Rashid at the Bridal Room, is great!

Only TDB has Bridesmaid duties that ask for your best moves fending off Expat Dragon posters. She must ask that you slay a dragon or two as Matron in return. HAHAH, It was a fleeting comment yesterday and I came on here for a nose, I'm very protective...TDB never asked me to come on here, I just got red in the face and had to see what the fire breathing dragons where saying! :p.

OK ladies, Bridesmaid chiming in here. I'm also getting married in 2 weeks in Dubai, and TDB is my Maid of 'dishonor' he-he and me her Bridesmaid, unfortunately because we have both been caught up in our own wedding planning, amongst taking care of babies, launching new businesses and all the other stuff life throws are you, we haven’t really been able to take much burden off one another, but we have done our best considering we don’t have any family here to assist, and have other rather large responsibilities on top....I’ve seen TDB plan this day for the past year and she has been calm, collected, organized and quite frankly, I’ve been really impressed. It's simply a culmination of things towards the end that has led to a 'rant'...for goodness sake, I cannot stand these 'perfect' women who state stuff like "oooh I just popped my baby out" and “ooooh I panned my wedding with such ease, I was so ZEN, why be a Bridezilla?" - Well good for you, but some of us are normal women, who feel overwhelmed at times and if I'm honest, I have experienced firsthand the inconsiderate nature of people during the wedding planning process, it's FINE to get a little annoyed about it now and then! Seriously, give her a break! I also run a business where I speak to brides daily and TRUST me, TDB is not alone! But yes, all you can do now my gorgeous one, is let it be… you have done so much and now is your time to relax and let others take over. NOW, MY LOVELY BRIDE, RELAX, ENJOY, the weather is stunning and it will be wonderful. I'm here, as are your other BM's and we will not let a thing get you down! It will be amazing and sod all these nasty dragons laying into you....No wonder I don’t come on this forum, don't know why you bother. Love you and cannot wait to see you and Mr DB 2 moro and on Fri xx PS: Thanks to all the non-judgmental, understanding ladies who have provided some kind of encouragement or at the least ‘constructive critic’.
