I have spent the whole day (less about an hour
) at work sorting out wedding stuff. I can feel myself starting to get a wee bit stressed! It's not the big things - it's the little things. I was in the Confetti shop on Wednesday and bought loads of little bits (cake bags, table glitter etc) and before I knew it had spent £100 :eek:. !!!!!!????? I seriously am running out of money fast lol.
On the plus side I've sorted out my mum's hair and make up. Its a bit of a drama because my parents live 200 miles away so are staying in a hotel and don't really want to spend the whole morning at mine as I live in a teeny house and its all ready gonna be full with me, 4BMs, 2 photographers and a video guy lol. So I've found this lovely freelance lady who lives near the hotel who can do a wash and blow dry for my mum and apply her make up. And it's a plus that she specialises in ladies aged 50+ :rotfl:.
So at least I've got my mum sorted now. All I have to do is encourage my dad to get his hair cut. He retired about 5 years ago and is rebelling after his 40 years in civil service by growing his hair since the day he left :eek: Seriously - its longer than mine - and ive got extenions in lol. I wouldn't mind but he's got quite frizzy hair as well lol. And don't get me started on him wanting to wear his brown shoes with a black suit:o
Tomorrow, I need to have a wedding free day to calm my nerves. So I intend on having a deep clean of my house. I need to wash the carpet - so guess it would be a good opportunity then!
Anyways, wiching you all a fabulous weekend

It's our month tommorow!!!!
Congrats to all the brides getting wed tommorow- i hope the crappy weather improves for you. Have fabulous days xx0 -
We should have a wee Hen night for us August brides :beer: only 3 weeks for me, might have my dress, might not but luckily I have a backup 1 otherwise I'd be round the bend by now:eek:
I went to the registrars to hand in our forms, luckily they didn't need my birth cert as heaven knows where it is, she found a copy on their magic puter. Had a Virgin Vie make up trial, went ok not amazing but then noone is as critical of your appearance as yourself. It seems there is no magic makeup to make my skin beautiful:rolleyes: OH's got to pick up his suit tomorrow, wonder if he'll let me see. I've never seen him in a suit. Picked up a Tshirt for him in the Matalan sale as a post wedding pressie it's red his fave colour and says "IF FOUND RETURN TO WIFE" it was only £2 so I thought it would make him smile. Also picked him up a smart watch not expensive but I thought it would look nicer with his suit, so will give him that on the morning so he gets there on time!! Thought I might get him some nice socks to go with his suit & so he doesn't get cold feet:rotfl: his shirt is a lavender colour & his tie purple do you think dark purple socks will be nice, wonder where I could get them
Well girlies- good luck to everyone, I hope you all have amazing days for your weddings & the rest of your wonderful marriages.:kisses::smileyhea:happyhear:happyhear:grouphug: :grouphug::happyhear:grinheart:kisses::happyhear:smileyhea:happyhear:lovethoug:happylove

Had my 1st hen night last night and was little bit worse for wear. woke up about 11 and head was fine but stomach wasnt greatNeeded to eat something but everytime I thought about it felt like being sick, so I went back to slepp and got up about 30mins ago and feel fine
Ready for my next night tonight. Supposed to be a bit of a calmer one tonight but only time will tell!
Good luck to all the 1st August brides!!!!!!!0 -
Val - Hope your second hen night went well last night :beer:
I seriously cannot believe that its less than 2 weeks before I get married. I'm off to Ikea today to get the candles for the reception. Bought my BMs sparkly hair swirls on ebay, and got H2B some super shiny black patent shoes online - hope they fit lol.
I'm so excited - my friend is coming over from the states on wednesday for the wedding. Booked the day off work so i can go meet him at the airport :j
Oh, and I spoke to the travel agent yesterday because our hotel in New York has just let us know that the building next door is haveing major renovation works. Not good for usSo travel agents have upgraded us to a 5 star hotel - complimentary - and we got to choose which one we go to :j So have now booked for the W Hotel Times Square. Mmmmmmm - can't wait :j:j:j
