Calling All August 2009 Brides!!!

Neeny82

Hi guys, bit of an update!

Good to here there are some other girls getting wed on same date as me (15th Aug)

Mum just rang and said that she had seen some gorgeous bridal shoes in BHS for £35 so she has bought them for me and sent me a couple of pics and they are just what I was looking for! She has also told me that she is making me my garter! Bless her! Love my mum x x x x

Oh and I went to try my dress on again at the weekend and get measured and I still love it and I have lost 5 inches since last time which is a bonus!!!!!

Sory Sammy no offence intended, Im not sure what these hotels are like, told OH he can sort it instead, Ive got enough to sort out. Lol.

Im using this woman off ebay for my flowers

She didnt have what i wanted so I gave her my colour scheme and she made some stuff up. Bit worried coz everything seems to have disappeared from her shop :oS Will have to wait and see. So far she has been really good but she is quite slow at replying.

The things we brides do lol

You can say that again! Ive just done 10miles on my cross trainer after a full day at work. Ill be Elle McPherson before I know it :rolleyes:

No offence taken Val Wow, 10 miles...and after work. You are one motivated lady lol

My friend has said that she'll do my flowers (she's a florist). But she seems to disappear off the radar every now and again, so I don't want to be caught short! I've managed to pin her down for lunch on the weekend and she's going to bring the books from work so we can decide what we want. But I'm not looking forward to going to New Covent Garden the day before the wedding at 4am :eek: Very MSE tho

Neeny, that's great news about shoes. Mums are great When we found my £10 rainbow club shoes in John Lewis she said she'd pay for them - until she found her £100 shoes and £50 matching bag in the same shop and then said I'd have to pay for mine myself :rotfl: I'm on a mission to get that £10 back off her

Congrats on the weight loss Neeny that's great news. I was hoping to shift a few pounds before my fittings but don't think I'll get there - i'm just too lazy

I dont think I can manage 10 again, thought I was having a heart attack. lol. prob cut down to 5miles (can do that in about 30mins while my tea is cooking)
I have quite a bit of motivation with the holiday as well. can easily lose the weight and if I get a lace up back on my dress should be ok

Sammygirl-I ordered it from the shop knew I would lol, I just knew when I put it on it felt perfect I did not want to take it off, fitting is not until june which feels like too long until I see it again!! my mum took a picture on my camera and I cannot stop looking at it but I think I will have to delete as its a shared camera
