Hi, thanks so much for your reply. I'm certain I've tried a few sun and sand stores with zero luck but will keep popping in whenever I pass one if you've found them to carry those sizes on occasions. Would you mind letting me know the sites your husband would recommend for UK and USA ordering. This will have to be a last resort as have lost count of shoes ordered online that have not ended up fitting hubby properly. Anyone else have any suggestions for local shoe store or a custom shoe maker in Dubai??? :))

Good afternoon everyone, Looking for suggestions of anywhere you may have seen wedding cake toppers for sale in dubai stores. Preferably a store in the Dubai Mall that may stock them for immediate purchase? I am ideally wanting to find the "Tropical Breeze" popular ceramic figurine or something very similar and I have had no problem finding this available for online purchase <bridesideoflife.com etc> but the delivery times are significant and I really need to pick it up from somewhere early next week!!! Thank you so much for your time and advice. Kind regards, Sarah.

Hi Sarah, Thanks for your reply, its been ages since I’ve been out for dinner so really looking forward to it. I called them to confirm the booking as it was made by hubby – good job I did as he made it in the wrong branch :-/ I asked them about the offers and the 2 for 1 Ramadan offer is still on as long as you mention it when booking. Can’t wait to eat a big juicy steak :-) Hahahaha I get excited about a really good meal that I dont have to prepare for myself to :) Good job of calling them to confirm - have found it is always best to confirm these types of deals directly as sometimes they can be somewhat elusive in Dubai hehehe. Enjoy!

Hi I’ve got a dinner tonight in Ruth Chris steak house and I didn’t actually realize it was so expensive (looks like it can cost AED300 just for a steak) Does anyone know what entertainer book it’s in? If it’s the fine dining do you think it would be worth buying for tonight? There are 4 of us eating? Also will the vouchers be vaild for Dubai marina as it is a new venue. Thanks Hi there, I absolutely love Ruth Chris - I have had great experiences at both the Address Marina location and M Hotel. Last time we were going I looked in my normal entertainer books and there was not a voucher in there - sorry I am not certain about whether there may be one in the fine dinning version. But I know that at the moment they are offering a Ramadan Special, where there is a buy one mains dish get one free. Or there was also a 3 course set menu <with a couple of options to choose from for each course> which was about AED230-ish if I remember correctly. When we ordered this we concerned these may be scaled down versions of dishes and that we would leave hungry but to be honest it was perfectly sized and we were very satisfied with the portions and of course quality. I would contact the restaurant and confirm that either of these discount deals are still being offered though just to be safe. Hope this is a lil help. Have a great dinner!! Sarah. :)

Ladies, thank you so much for taking the time to help me with these great suggestions! So am I completely out of luck when it comes to finding a local business that offers these types of gifts with the personalisation service then???

Have you tried the Japanese bookshop in Dubai Mall - they have a lot of lovely filofaxes etc. Maybe a luggage shop? Fantastic - thank you so much! These are exactly the type of suggestions I was looking for. I knew I would be able to find something suitable in Dubai but my brain was totally blank on where to go looking. Anybody else have any pearls of wisdom to share?? :))
