Here we are at the end of our wonderful week! And first and foremost, an enormous thank you to each one of you for all your contagious joy and excitement. Your participation truly made it such a sparkly, entirely incredible, epic occasion. Thank you all so much!!! I'm so happy to have so many fellow Cinderella loving friends. You're all amazing. :)
This post has taken me a while to finish off as there are so many links! I've tried hard to make sure everything is accurate and links through properly, but let me know if I've missed anything and it'd also be great if you could test your link/s, etc. (just so we make sure no one gets lost). I've also included a few earlier posts/reviews that were linked in the comments.
