    Wow - that is alot!!

    Mine's costing £60 but then mine takes ages for her to do and quite fiddly so don't mind paying that, and still seems to be cheaper than the salons down here!!!


    Argh - it's my chinese wedding today. Really nervous, although i've had the benefit of attending my OH's sister chinese wedding a few years back. Should be good. Just about to go round to my MIL's to get ready and do hair and make up!!

    But, am so excited - can't believe i'm getting married on Saturday. Am so praying for nice weather!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fingers crossed. It's miserable here at the mo and just hope it's getting its bad weather out now!!! ha ha :rotfl:

    Had a nightmare stressy day as my BM text me to say she couldn't find the flower girls shoes (her daughters!). I get married on Saturday and it's the only things I've asked for them to buy themselves over 6 months ago!!!! And a week before the wedding, me and my mum traipsed everywhere!! Managed to find some and just hoping they fit. Seriously don't know what I'm going to do if they don't fit!!! Just really annoyed me as i could have done without that stress yesterday.

    Does anyone else feel that one of your BM's have perhaps not been as helpful as you'd like??

    I arranged my own hen night, told them what they were wearing, sorted all the flower girls all because they couldn't sort it to get together, I even did their shoe shopping too, that way I knew it would be done!

    I'm now being asked how are we getting to the church? :mad: I'd make them walk if I had my own way :rotfl:

    I am not having any! Felt it was easier to do it myself! Have a MoH in a way but she has come over all shy so is just doing the behind the scenes bits!

    I have done so much myself just because I am a control freak and can trust no-one to do it as well as I can at the moment! :D

    I had a make up trial with my cousin today, I looked amazing!! She did this amazing 'smokey' thing to my eyes which I never would have attempted. Works really well with the fact I wear glasses. The lip gloss is amazing and is still glossy even hours later after a roast dinner and upteen cups of tea!!!
    :rotfl:Ahahah got my signature removed for claiming MSE thought it was too boring :rotfl:
