Thanks everyone!
We haven't booked the wedding yet, but are planning it for March or April next year - so I'm really buckling down with my diet and exercise!
We're leaning towards getting married in Barbados then island hopping to St Lucia for a weeks honeymoon - budget permitting!
Jessica - I have spent ages looking on the internet for a wedding dress suitable for a beach wedding, and I luckily stumbled across this one via another site. The designer is called Joanna Hehir and is based in London.
I'll keep you all posted and definately post my 'after' pictures of me wearing the dress!
Love Amanda x
