Hiya mighty mondo, I'm having love heart sweet favours too. I'm filling little glass jars with them and also using them as the name places too. I saw a brilliant love heart cake too that i thought i might have but haven't fully decided on a cake yet. I might decorate an M&S cake or even make my own i just need to practice icing a bit more though.

i still need to hand our notices in at the registrars, i know that should have been one of the first things done but a relative is one of the the local registrars and she has already told us she is keeping that day clear to marry us

Are there any July Brides out there

Cant find a topic in first 10 pages of the thread and being a July bride myself thought it would be nice to speak to others and see how well they are doing etc

just thought id check in to see how all the July weddings are going, we are on target budget wise - and we have now managed to include the cost of the honeymoon but not any spending money yet!

how are every one elses plans for July going?

Ordered my dress yesterday! Was going to go with Landy or Milly but to placate my mum we went to a proper wedding dress shop and found what was apparently a bridesmaid dress in ivory (although it was with the bride's dresses and i picked it out without knowing) which i really liked and when I looked at the price it was only £200! My mum couldn't believe how cheap it was compared to the others. Plus the fact that it's technically a bridesmaid and not a bride's dress means it will have a shorter lead time and will be ready in time for a proper fitting etc.

So that was a bit of luck! We went to look at suit hire and were told we were too early... who has already done this?!

the only two things my H2B have got to do are sorting the kilt hire and organising the mini-moon.
as far as the mini moon is concerned, hes keeping it all quiet and a surprise. kilt hire wise he has been saying for the past 2 months that he will do it in a couple of weeks!
my friends who is getting married 3 weeks b4 me has already booked her kilt hire so i wouldnt imagine it would be too early
