Calling All August 2009 Brides!!!

Sammy_Girl

Evening Ladies,

Well I've been sat down going through my wedding folder with my mum. I will get the following done by this time next week:

• Book 1st dress fitting appointment
• Book cake maker and pay deposit
• Book first night hotel accommodation and reserve rooms for guests
• Call venue and ask what they use for table number holders, if they have a piano on site and ask if next part of deposit can be paid by cc so that mum can get her air miles lol

I think that's enough to be getting on with this week

How's everyone else's planning going?

Just realised that it's 21:00 on Valentines night You're prob all having romantic evenings with H2Bs. We went out for a nice Italian lunch. H2B has decided to work tonight as it should be busy so he can save some more for the wedding

Hi and welcome, your just 4 days after me, hows your plans going?

Well all we have sorted is the dresses, the church, venue and the cars! What about you?

I keep having freak outs about silly things - like how many photos I want in the photo album and what colour invitations I want! Everything is so expensive!

I'm so excited though! :T

I still have lots to do the dress is the main thing I need to get sorted, not sure what you want for invites but I went with this company got them the other day and they are beautiful I just went with the colour theme really good price too, I just have to tie the bows now lol

I know what you mean about freak outs I will wake up in the middle of the night thinking about random things that I dont need to worry about yet lol

They are really nice and such a bargain compared to other ones I've seen! I've been thinking about making my own, even though I'm not artistic in the slightest, but anything to save a bit of money!
I even woke up in the middle of the night last night and drew a pic of what I want the invitations to look like! How sad is that!

lol thats funny:rotfl: I thought about doing my own but then found these, a few of people on here are doing their own you might be able to get some tips if you put up a thread for advice
