We are getting married 4th October and are not having shrugs/boleros. I asked my cousin who married last October about it as she had boleros for her bms. She told me no!! She said they added to expense. Also that herself and the bms had being going around all morning rushing and were really warm after all the hair and make up. In the church the bms took them off as the heating was on and I never saw them on the girls for the remainder of the day apart from outdoor photos. But then again everyone to their own :)

We're getting married in Jan so shrigs are a must! At first I was thinking of ordering them from the interent (there's loads of shops on ebay!) but after getting samples of a few they weren't really what i was looking for! They have FAB ones in Debhamans - I'm getting 2 for my BM's- they have a lovely minky/gold colouras well as Ivory and they have ones with jewlels and pearls and stuff on them! I'm ranting about how much I love Berketex again but I got my shug there and it's fab - bit more that I expected to pay for a shrug but it's really really rich and lovely!!

We are getting married in January and the BM are having black boleros from Debenhams. I don't know what I am having yet, as the fabric is coming with the dress and we are deciding during my dress fitting on Tuesday. I am also having long gloves to try and keep me warm on the day! :yeah

Im thinking of getting shurgs or fur jackets for my bms, not sure what im doing myself, thinking maybe a cloak or a shawl or something matching the bms colour. Ive been looking on litb for shurgs and things and they have some lovely one's, ebay didnt have anything that matched the idea in my head!

My dress designer is making them for me, so I have no idea where to get them. Sorry about that! I am sure there are lots of websites around and they might be able to give you an idea in the bridal shop where you get your dress.

We are getting married at the end of December and my bridesmaids just want wraps for when they are outside, I will just brave the cold in the church but will have a wrap on standby for warming up inbetween any outside pics but don't want to be photographed in it as it will take from the dress
