Aww bless her hope shes ok?

Ok personally I think your knee length dresses will be PERFECT for her, if she has a great big plaster cast on shes not going to want anything too long covering it as it will restrict her movement! Let her try it on with the cast and then decide!

As for her carrying a bouquet what about decorating her crutches with flowers to match the bm's bouquets instead???

When I spoke to her on Skype all she was worried about was ruining my pictures with crutches but I couldn't care less just want her there and to be recovering, bless her!

I like the idea about decorating her crutches, she would love that! Xxx

I was going to suggest decorating her crutches too with ribbon and flowery bits to match the bouquets :)

Hope she makes a speedy recovery!

I agree with linzi jo, it probably wont be apparent come the time as your wedding is 8 months away. And besides if she is still bandaged up by that point, there are other things you can do anyway where the photos are concerned. Not all photos are standing pictures and crutches can be taken away by the photographer before taking the shots.

I don't think it would even matter on the day anyway if she had a bandage and crutches or not. Most likely by that point she could get away with wearing a slim flesh coloured knee sports sock support for a few hours anyway so it won't be quite so noticeable if she needed it.

I wouldn't see why they wouldn't let her fly as its 8 months after the operation.

Oh bless ya and her not good news I hope she ok and makes a speedy recovery.

I would possibly go with the wrist corsage rather than decorating flowers as like been said if she worried about them she prob wont want the attention drawn to them but also like Linzi Jo said she may not actually need the by the time of the wedding as they do advise to walk as normal as possible as quickly as possible so your muscles etc get back to normal (fingers crossed)

With regards to her concern of photos Id speak to the photographer and also if she that concerned Im sure if she wanted to not have them while the picture was taken there would be poses that can be done and have you or otehr bridesmaids support her if she a bit unsteady xxx

she might not be able to fly long haul if she is in plaster, my mum had to get hospital clearance for a 20 minute flight to the isle of man from liverpool and they said the only reason she can fly is because it doesnt reach the same altitude. NZ to england would be a longa$$ flight so im not sure the airline or the hospital would let her fly.

however, its 8 months from now so she might be ok? she could just have a knee support on and 1 crutch?
