Hi Guys,

Lol, Steph no worries about the dole queue!!! Violetta, bet you got a shock when you saw that!!! hehe.

Bluemeanie Im not far from you (Widnes) Im due back from holiday on thurs so I will have a nose at what stuff I have and let you know, see if anything suits you. let me know what sort of thing your after.

Hope all is going well, Im currently sitting by the pool drinking some sangria. 42 degrees here today :eek: im a little burnt. lol. Back home midday on thurs then away on the fri for another wedding. Have my hair and make up trial on Monday.
So much for not thinking about the wedding either, I have commandeered my friends laptop and been emailing the caterer all weel. damn my control freak nature!!! lol.

anyway, take care everyone and Ill be back properly on thurs. Got a BBQ on go at moment so going to get something to eat then back in the pool. its a hard life! lol

just thought I'd bring you up to speed - out 3rd venue confirmed our booking (it had to go to the club committee for approval) so we are defo in there now (phew!!!!) found out aswell tonight that the club was filmed in for that 'four weddings' show on LivingTV and from reading the thread on here - it will be on Monday's episode so you can all have a nosey at my new venue lol :P :P just need to get hold of the local DJ (from what I have seen on the youtube clip its not the fella the wedding featured have) and see if he can do it at short notice (fingers crossed) with the prices we have been quoted it will work out cheaper than venue no2 AND we are both happier too now

I'm going for another dress fitting in the morning (hope it will be ok) - only thing I think we have to do is get my H2b ring next week and then we are sorted

thanks to you all too for the messages and offers of support xx

Oh thank goodness for that bluemeanie, 3rd time lucky eh! Will have to watch 4brides.
I bought myself a necklace & earrings yday I saw them in the shop tried them on then thought they were a bit much maybe too sparkly so said I'd bring my friend back for a 2nd opinion. I'm such a ditherer, I was 2 minutes outside the shop when I realised if I went back Saturday & they weren't there I'd be so dissapointed, so I went back & bought them lol.
They are purple of course with lots of crystals a butterfly in the centre and a few roses on them too. Funny maybe they were meant for me, my mums name was Rose, at her funeral a butterfly flew out of the grave as the coffin was lowerd. & when my dd was born there was a butterfly in the labour room it was the 1st thing my oh saw when he held our dd so I think she was there. So Roses & butterflies are very special to me. I miss my mum so much at the moment, silly moo I sat outside the shopping centre looked at my new jewellery & shed a wee tear.

Val how was the hair trial? Hope you liked it, I had mine on Friday & I loved it, my hairdresser is a star,made me feel like a princess, was a bit shocked at how little she is charging, I’m sure she could easily charge 3x what I’m paying , for the trial for my bm & me & doing us both on the big day it’s £30 in total.
Also had the photographer round this evening to meet & go over things, she is lovely, just starting out but seems good.
OMG it’s a month tomorrow, where has the time gone & when will my dress get here!!!

Well 2 weeks tomorrow for me! Can't wait. Have my Hen night tomorrow night in Brighton. Only the table plan to make up now - oh and wait for our visas!! Eeek! We only found out 2 days ago that we needed one for our honeymoon on the 8th (we get married on the 7th) - apparently it's "not the responsibilty of the tour operator to inform us we MAY need a visa" Grrr! If it doesnt come we are screwed as they have our passports now. Been busy making my jewellery and having hair trials. I made some dress pins for my dress gathers and I think they look lovely. It is just something to make the back of the dress sparkle in the evening

Have a great night tomorow Faye. I get married the day after you and having my hen night on Saturday. Will be fairly low key but I can sense that lots of cocktails will be in order! Beautiful dress pins by the way.
