Am I cheap?
Who me personally? No not at all, but I like so many appreciate the value in getting or doing IT cheaper cutting costs not corners. I however through no fault of my own have very expensive taste.
Case in point: I'm the bride and not what one would call a typically girly girl at all. No dreams of prince charming when I was a wee girl or the considerable time since for that matter, more of a GI Jane than a Cinderella.
So in terms of operation getwed an exercise that would be run with military precision, the part of the exercise I was actually looking forward to least was "The Dress".

I knew that I would never want the typical wedding dress but there was an added challenge to this mission set by H2B who insisted "don't you dare walk down the aisle in some funky leather outfit or any futuristic type ensemble, just wear a white dress".
Problem solved make the dress - Oops couture expensive, think cheaper. O.k. but I will still need to check that the style I have in mind is going to suit, I figure go and at least try on a couple.
Off to the west end, first boutique, I don't like any of these my trusting MOH and friend from childhood agrees "Nadz they don't do anything for you". Second and final boutique, no luck here either. Oh but wait these 2 look promising.
Behind the curtain, assistant assisting. "What do you think" she says, I think it is a bit too much - I step from behind the curtain MOH emm its o.k, it's nice. Second dress behind the curtain as the assistant cinches in my waist with a belt to within one inch of my life I smile excitedly nodding with two thumbs up. What will your friend think" you'll see" I whisper.
The curtain opens I step out "OMG Nadz THAT IS SO YOU"!!!!
I twirl around admiring my reflection. Wow finding a dress that matches my quirky style, imagining the tweaks here and there the additional armour I mean accessories - mission accomplished.

"How much is it?" MOH says. Assistant says"actually you've gone for one from the luxury range, that one is £10,500".
MOH laughs out loud "Nadz that is so you choosing one of the most expensive dresses in the store. "
"ABORT ABORT - lets get out of here". I am definitely not cheap but I am also not insane.
