    Hi

    I won't be a July 2011 bride, but will be a July 2011 groom.

    Can I join in?

    Aside from venue, what other planning have we all done?

    So far I've booked the bar for the venue and the DJ. Also contacted the registrar and had the date and time pencilled in til we give notice.
    Have been looking at invite designs, venue decorations etc to get an idea of costs. Feel a bit overwhelmed at times when I think of all there is to do!

    Just booked ours for Sat 2nd July 2011, at Eastwood Park, Gloucestershire, am so excited, am getting mixed messages from family and friends as when to book things or not, but for my piece of mind, I'm already getting quotes online for photographers and a DJ, florists are next.

    Good luck with the planning everyone

    I thought I'd add an update on mine... we are now booked for 2nd July, we've spoken to our local Thai restaurant about doing our wedding breakfast and I'VE FOUND MY DRESS!!!! YAY!!!! A bit early I know but I fell in love with it and even more so when I found out it was only £395!!! (although they wont order it for me until the end of the year and they said if I find a dress I prefer in the shop they will transfer my deposit onto a different one.

    Yippe! I have just got my confirmation of venue and date - 2nd July 2011. Was very scary sending off the deposit cheque but exciting too! We've booked the church and minister and started to put together photos of things that I like for the reception theme/decorations. Thinking of a Navy blue and ivory with hints of silver colour theme at the moment.

    And of course I spend time looking on MSE for ideas too!

    Hello July 2011 brides and grooms!
    We've just booked the church for 30th July 2011 but no idea on reception venue yet! We've only been engaged since Easter so my head is buzzing!!

    Hi July 2011 brides, we've just booked Sat 16th July!

    Church booked, trying to decide on caterer and marquee supplier. Anyone else having a garden marquee reception?
    :D

    We're thinking of it as one possibility. Something I need to find out more about!

    Congratulations to all July 2011 brides and grooms!
    23rd July for me!
    Church, reception and photographer booked. Also started learning flower arranging, although think I may be a little too ambitious with that!
