Hooray Emma!
Where are you getting married? If it's near to me (Cambridge area) I might be asking for Harpist reccomendations, as the one I've contacted hasn't responded!

I'm having 140 guests :eek: and that's going to be limiting some of the relatives, eek!

Emma1988

ekkk! I thank god that i dont have a big family sometimes! its in scotland... paying 300 for her to play for before, during and after the ceremony when we will be staying outside drinking! I say outside, i hope, if it doesnt rain xxxxx

RainbowDrops

Ah, probs a bit far then for the harpist!

Emma1988

Anyone else getting married in the Midlands on this thread?

I dont mean to brag but i have pretty much everything sorted out now except our cake. Just gotta make all the stationery i think and thats it. woop!

Thats really good, well done! Sending out our invites at christmas, due to our wedding being on the saturday and it being the same weekend as rockness weekend, which means alot of our friends will have to fight to get it booked off work!

Oh wow, that's so organised!
We sort of took a break after booking the venue, and haven't done much since (other than my living on this forum!).

OH is up at the venue area today though taking a look at local hotels that we can reccomend to our guests & try to get a deal on.
Once we've picked a suitable one, we'll send out save the dates.

haha ive already sent out our save the dates and some of my friends have booked their hotel rooms already! I had the magnets from vistaprint. I love going to everyones houses and seeing them on their fridges!

I drive my OH mad, i have to have everything totally under control and organised. Plus i was a little concerned that suppliers and people we really wanted would be busy on our date. The photographer we originally liked was already booked on our date and that was in November last year!

I've thought of some things i havent done yet.... got my BMs shoes and accessories and ordered the Guys outfits. (although we have chosen which ones we like)

Emma1988

getting our BM's dresses off bhs, although last week they were in the sale and this week they arent. i mean what the heck?

Ohh sounds like everyone is getting along nicely! ::j)

We went to eastbourne on sunday and met our bridesmaid (OH youngest cousin - 9ys old) she is lovely and OH aunty and uncle are too. weather was beautiful, OH is already saying he wants us to move down there!! lol.

Need to find dresses for her and little flowergirl though - i will be sorting their shoes etc out bit closer to the time; incase of really big growth spurts!! lol.
Where have you got your BM/FG dresses from?
