Getting really depressed about my wedding, nothing is organinsed and I've only got 5 weeks and 3 days to go. We where meant to be going camping instead of a reception but it's turning into a huge party totally reliant on favours from other people who probably won't come through.
If I had my way we'd just run off to a Hotel together after the register office and everyone else can get on.
Also my soon-to-be brother-in-law (and best man) is getting out of rehab (a few hundred miles away) the afternoon before the wedding!!!!:eek:
I second what G&B said - its your day - do what you want - I know its not always that easy and people are only trying to help but be strong and dont let it spoil your happy day. As for being disorganised - I dont believe it!!! - but remember what we do here - babysteps - make a list of what has to be done - break it down into smallest chunks and start trying to tick them off - it will all come together beautifully. Cant these grandparents help a bit? I know you probably want to do it yourself but ask for help when you need it!!
Coo imagine not being able to have bacon butties!!!!:eek: :eek:
(((hugs)))
