I have always wanted to have a medieval wedding theme - why not? It is such a different concept to most weddings you see these days. The bridal party would all be in elegant medieval dresses, my medieval wedding dress would be out of this world, all long and floaty.

I'd like the men in battle dress, if it was a partiularly hot day, it could be quite amusing to have the best man in a suit of armour.

For the meal we would all sit round a massive 'old world' wooden table. We would all eat chunks of meat and vegetables with our hands, gone with the usual elegance of the wedding meal.

As red wine is my favourite tipple, I would insist all guests supped generously out of chunky goblets. Everyone would be allowed to burp loudly as sign of enjoyment. My medieval wedding dress would be pale blue and pale yellow in colour. It would be long and floaty. To top my medieval wedding dress off I would be wearing a medieval headress with white floaty lace. There would be no signs of any flashy wedding tiara bling.

I have not yet decided on my wedding table centerpieces - possibly, the head of a boar - I am picturing the old medieval films and unfortunately this is all I can see on the table.

The point is anyone can have the wedding they dream of. It's simple, throw a few ideas around, write them down and then start the planning. Everything will just fall into place.

It is two years since I got married, I remember the weddings dresses search well. I trawled through the wedding shops trying on lots of weddings dresses and although I liked lots of them I didn't fall in love with any.

The problem was that I'd already seen a photo of my dream dress but I had not yet found it in the flesh. I had purchaseed a wedding magazine two days after I had got engaged and there it was - Alfred Angelo White wedding dress with an amazing claret corset and train. The price was amazingly reasonable as well, considering how amazing the dress was and the amount of detail in it. To cut a long story short, it was after trawling through 5 weddings dresses shops that I changed tactics and just started phoning all weddings dresses shops asking if they stocked my dress. It came in various colours so I was hopeful I would be able to get an idea of what it would look like, even if it was in blue.

Eventuall I found a small shop, 20 miles away and as if it was a sign, they stocked my dress, in my size and even in my chosen colours.

As soon as I tried it on I loved it. I had my bridesmaids choose their dress style and I chose the colour claret. From behind we were all in exactly the same colour, from the front I had an exquisite white dress. I was on a budget so I decided, after my bridesmaids had picked their Alfred Angelo dresses that I would purchase them online from America on a website - www.houseofbrides.com. It was a nervewracking few weeks, I had never made such a big online purchase before but true to the testomonials House of Brides were first class.

The 12th of September would be exactly one year since Jane had swapped her chastity ring for an engagement ring, the 12th would also be the day she became Mrs Fellows.

John had given her the chastity ring 3 years ago, they knew they were meant to be together and both felt strongly about staying true to themselves until their wedding night. They knew they were going to be together forever so felt no need to rush things.

Jane was so excited when John proposed and she couldn't believe that in such a short time she was finally going to stand beside him before God and become his wife.

The wedding was planned down to the last details. Jane's search for a modest wedding dress had not been an easy one but the search had proved successful and her dream modest wedding dress was now hanging in her wardrobe awaiting Saturday's celebrations.

Jane had not realised how revealling most weddings dresses were these days. She didn't think of herself as a prude, she simply did not feel comfortable in a strapless dress which showed off her cleavage, dress after dress that she tried on did exactly this. Eventually she found her dream modest wedding dress - it had short sleeves, an elegant neckline, amazingly soft ivory material which led into a crystal encrusted train. Her handmade wedding tiara sparkled like diamonds.

Jane went to her jewelry box where she kept her treasured chastity ring. She was going to treasure these next few days in her parents house before she moved on to the next stage of her life as a wife, and one day hopefully a mother. That night she went to sleep dreaming of her modest wedding dress and how it made her feel like a princess. Only 3 more sleeps until she became Mrs Fellows.
