May 2011 brides

So excited = get married 7 weeks on Saturday - woooohoooo...

Just need to get back on track with losing weight and then I'll be happy!!

Loads to do still though, still need to do table plans, evening guest invites, hair trial, do flowers, book wedding flowers, organise hair cuts and dying, shop for honeymoon clothes, make order of services, table numbers, etc... OMIGOD - so much still to do, and I'm sure I'm missing loads off that list too.... :eek:

Need to get engagement ring polished and replated too...

Argh, money, money, money....

Hey ajbrynoffa! OOOOOOOh you sound very organised!! Romantic suprises for your bride sound like a great idea, I dont know a bride out there doesnt secretly wish her groom would do something romantic as a suprise for them, especially as most brides know nearly every detail of their wedding inside out! What are you going to do????

I'm organising a collection of items from the Cherry Blossom range from L'Occtaine ( http://uk.loccitane.com/FO/Cherry-Blossom,crg_CherryBlossom.htm ) to be delivered to the venue the night before the wedding for my bride.

The relevance (ignoring the quality of L'Occtaine products) is that we got engaged in Tokyo, Japan during the cherry blossom season

Oh bless Malkie76, how thoughtful of you.
It's nice to see some of the grooms can organise something!
I'll sit on my rant until it subsides a little i think - maybe it won't seem so bad later.

We've organised our wedding together, and taken joint responsibility for decision making. I very much doubt we'd single-handedly been able to organise a wedding - it's such a major event.

We're also paying for everything too, but despite that my FMIL still has helpful 'suggestions'!
