    errrr, can i just get meeting his parents out the way first...!

    there's no way anyone needs to start saving for that... he'll only be divorced in a couple of weeks...

    even if i did decide i was gonna marry him, there's the small matter of whether he would feel the same!

    And of course divorcees are always tough nuts to crack... i know i failed before!

    I think if i'd already been married and had a big hoohaa wedding, i would feel like an idiot getting all excited about it all over again... and altho i wouldn't want a massive wedding as such, i don't really want to have to go low key just because he'd already had his 5 minutes of fame...

    And i'd need a pretty big party afterwards to fit you all in! and so it won't be abroad!

    Definitely not bikinis then if it's up your way - brr! :eek::D

    I have been married twice and both times in a registry office with no party and no honeymoon afterwards.....

    I would love to have a massive white wedding type thing but with a dysfunctional family and a fear of being the centre of attention (without a couple of bottles of wine inside me..:rotfl:) it was never gonna happen....

    Can't see me getting married again...:rotfl:

    When my friend got married a couple of years ago she wanted to jump out of the window as she hates being the centre of attraction so much.

    I can't blame her. What's the minimum you can get away with saying at a wedding? :confused:
