    Hello blondy! What time are you getting married tommorow? I'm sure you said but I've forgotten! Loads to do today. Very annoyed that our honeymoon tickets haven't arrived yet (we fly on Tuedsday). Apparently they are going to the travel agents by recorded delivery today but theres a postal strike here.

    Oh good luck girlies hope today isn't too manic for you & you have a lovely day tomorrow, looks like you may be getting some decent weather.
    If 1 more person tells me "it's YOUR day, YOU do it how YOU want YOU YOU YOU" I may slap them & scream there is someone else involved in the proceedings I feel like my oh is becoming a minor accessory it's his big day too.
    I had a wee go at my mil to be yday, the night b4 I'd asked my oh , do you want to get a present for your mum, mum of the groom type stuff, he said isn't that to thank her for all the help she's given to organize everything, then no as she's done nothing. Fine with me he made the decision re his mum.
    Anyhoo yesterday I was talking to my friend G who offered to help if I needed ANYthing. She has offered to help many times since we told her we were getting married. She is the only person that has. (apart from all you ladies here)
    So mil texted me yday asking if something was wrong she had rang the niight before & we didn't bother to ring her back, I apologised, didn't realise she wanted to ring her back & we had been really busy hadn't gotten to bed til 1am.
    She texted back saying "you mustnt wear yourself out this is a stressful time & you need to get your sleep"
    thats when I snapped I texted back "well as only 1 single person has offered to help I don't have much option":eek:
    Her reply was sorry I thought you wanted to do everything I know I did. Yes well I'm not her thank goodness, but still no offer of help, she is so self centred it drives me up the wall.
    Sorry about the moan just needed to get it off my chest.
    Booo!!!

    Ooo sparkly Birkinstocks...what a great idea Sammy_Girl! The chinese lanterns sound great...I was toying with them for a while - the videos I saw on the internet looked amazing. ow big are the grounds of where you are? Was just thinking maybe you don't even need 50 for it to be really impressive?

    Thanks Kte. Where we're getting married is set in several hundred acres so I don't want the fifty getting lost :eek: The site I would get them from does guaranteed next day delivery. So I'm gonna sit down this weekend and see if I can squeeze them into the budget

    Good luck to you brides this weekend. I'll get on tonight to wish you a better good luck :)
