Somehow, we will find hoop skirts (or at least long and fussy ones)
If all else fails, find a skirt that's really really full at the bottom, get a hula hoop (or something similar), fold the hem up around it (on the inside, obviously) and tack/baste it in.
or how we'll fit through doors once we get them
My mother's wedding dress had a hoop skirt. She got married in a very small country church. My grandfather had to walk slightly in front of her, and she still bounced it off of every pew on the way down the aisle. Or so the story goes. (But knowing that church? No way she fit.)
***** Okay, very random comment. Do you (or any of your friends) like Dr. Pepper? If so, do NOT drink the British version. The cans say "prune-flavored drink" and they're not kidding. I don't know what they change, but it is *disgusting*. Warn them away from it, unless there's someone you need to be evil to. *g*
