    Hi Aimee

    Can you update the list for me please as we have now finally set a date!!! :j

    29 March 2009 at Wroxall Abbey. Very excited now as it means we can get on with planning everything else.
  • Just found this thread! My (or should that be our) big day is 5th March 2010. Booked the venue and bought the dress (you'd have been proud - it was the last one in a closing down sale in a boutique, went from 800 to 100 pounds and it fits perfectly!). I'll be making my own invitations, bouquet and flower arrangements (not real flowers as I have hay fever), and my own table decorations. I should just about have enoguh time to do it.

    Good luck to everyone on here!

    I have my first wedding dress appointment!!! A bit sad I have to go on my own though :(

    I had to as well.........it was quite sad but then I didn't have anyone else influencing my decision and got a dress I utterly adore. I am in Essex hun so if you want someone to come with you....let me know. I love dress shopping:j
  • Can I join too btw - I am getting married in Aug 09. 7th to be precise.

    Got dress and tiara
    Got BM dress
    Booked photographer and paid deposit
    Booked venue and paid deposit
    Send Save the dates to all day guests

    Have to say - I am doing this all on my own too. I asked my Mum to give me away and she said no so I am walking down the aisle alone too. So, if anyone is sad about doing it alone -think of all the arguments you wont have because you want something and your MIL/Mum wants something different!!!! hehe
  • Wow faye, you really are organised!! Im getting married in sept 09 and i've hardly done anything. But knowing me everything will be a mad rush!!
    :love: Getting married 23/09/09 :love:
    :) Mummy to a beautiful little boy-Jake Aged 2 :)

    Wow - what a meanie pants saying no! :(
  • Can I be added to the list pleaseour wedding is the 3rd October 2009. I'm busy busy busy trying to plan a lovely wedding that doesn't cost the earth as we already live together and had our miracle baby last year. I am so glad I found this site x-x:j
  • Can I join? I'm getting married on 11 July 2009. Can't wait!!! :0)
  • Thanks for letting me join! My fiancee proposed on 1st September and we're getting married next July. Neither of us can believe how much there is to think about and how quickly time ticks by. So far, I've booked the church and the venue and got my dress and the invitations and just keep writing and re-writing lists for everything else! One thing I do want to get sorted soon is the chair covers. Can anyone recommend a chair cover company near Guildford? Oh, I've also lost 1 stone and 3 pounds by switching from driving to work to walking to work! :j
