    I want mine the same as yours Nic- mine is just a bit longer than the bottom of my shoulder blades- thinking of a vintage look.

    Hi Ladies :)

    My, you lot have been busy!

    Well I have been sooooo lazy with my wedding planning this past week. I havent done anything. My mum's coming down next weekend so we're going to go to the Confetti shop in London to buy the stuff for the invites :j

    Well, now I am going on my last holiday as a single lady :eek: I really hope my flight's on time, what with this weather! I hope that you all have a fab week and I'll see you in a week's time!!

    Sammy, Have a lovely holiday! So jealous, Mine isnt until July and then I only have about 4 weeks once we get back till the wedding (Fingers crossed will still have a nice tan)

    I think I am having my hair similar to you guys, Its just below top of my shoulder blades so not sure if its too small but I want a little bit off it pinned up but back combed so the tiara sits against it (My hair is dark purple although that is another dilemma I am having about whether to keep it this colour) then loose curls in all of it but Im not sure if its too short. Got my trial so will keep looking till then see if i see anything else.
    Also my bridesmaids have all picked their dresses now so I have my Chief BM in one style of dress and other 2 in a different style but they are both gorgeous dresses. Cant wait, hoping to lose a bit more weight (currently doing 5miles a day on my cross trainer) then go and get fitted at beginning of march as I am getting it off a place on ebay

    I have just put an order in for my invites I changed my mind on them as the ones I originally wanted started at 20 invites for £56.00 and I only need 10, I could not waste £28.00 on nothing so I have ordered from

    http://www.daisychaininvites.co.uk/

    which was recommended on here. I am having white card with pale pink ribbon, they are printed and I am also getting a printed envelope and rsvp card with printed envelope all for £17.00, they look really nice too they are on hammered card:j
