April 2010 brides (and grooms) - do we have a thread?!

Oh no...Can't you swap a shift with someone? Did they know you are getting married?

Yeah, they know. I told them last year as soon as it was booked and phoned them again a couple of months ago.

They're so precious about the blinking rota. All annual leave is allocated for you, so the only reason I'm actually getting the time off for the wedding (and our 5 day mini-moon) is because I'll be doing nights the week before (because "that's the way it works...")

I don't know if I can swap because that will mess up staffing numbers or something blah blah blah.

Load of bull

Hi Everyone
Congrats Winky for falling pregnant - I am sure you will sort something out re the dress !!
Raspabarbas - sorry to hear about the shifts - that sucks !! Hugs
Jooles - good luck with all your final bits !!

I had a mare went to the florists tonight but couldnt find the right flowers. I want a pretty pink bouquet but I didnt really like what she showed me. So the rate I am going wont have any flowers !! I only have 3 weeks so I was in tears driving home and got flashed by a camera !!!

Slight Whoops moment today. Went to pick the rings up and mine was too small...it got stuck on my finger! The measurement was taken from my engagement ring and apparently it should have been a size bigger.

It would take them 3 weeks to get the correct size and that is too close for comfort so they are re-sizing it and it will be back on the 10th April.

So just a quick warning not to leave it to the last minute to pick yours up!

Hi everyone - good luck and Congratulations !! Hope your weddings are wonderful and everything goes well. I collected BM's jewellery today its silver, necklaces are nice but silver earrings look very small studs. Do you think thats ok ? Better than big Pat Butcher style maybe !!??
Suit hire place has changed date for collection but that seems to be ok with the boys. I have booked up most of beauty treatments and starting having them too. Had a spraytan tonight, facial last night. Starting to get excited and nervous !!;)

Wheee, I managed to swap that shift! One of my lovely colleagues who is already married will do it for me, wonderful person...
Two weeks to go, and only one free weekend left as I'm on nights again next weekend. OH better be organised!
