    ASAP
    Venue/s
    Car/s - if wanting to hire
    Invites if making own need to get them made up

    6weeks
    Cake (if having fruit cake needs time to mature)
    Flowers - book florist with rough numbers, can choose details closer to time
    Rings (though some standard sizes are kept in stock I have skinny fingers, they put a rush on my order it took 3 weeks)
    brides/bridesmaid dresses if getting from dress shop (mine was off the peg bhs and took 2days to be altered)
    send invites

    4-6 weeks
    honeymoon
    Food
    book hair app
    book make up

    2-4 weeks
    Men/boys suits - if hiring (suit n shoes shirt n waistcoat cravat)
    Your shoes, hair piece/hat
    drinks if buying own alcohol
    book spray tan
    favours,table decs
    choose music
    Photographs - make a list of any shots you want posed or otherwise (I found a list from googling, it was things like getting ready, empty venue, full venue, arriving, cutting cake, 1st dance)

    I'm not sure what happens with giving notice/reading the banns for church weddings but giving notice has a very specific timeframe.

    I just knew Gretna was on the boarder or something.
    would you just elope and have random witnesses or would you want family there?

    Oh I've meaning to say Krystal, ladybird and anyone else that does the neilson shopping scanning, I'm quitting it. I've just cashed in my points for Junior scrabble board game that is 2 for £15 in argos - that's all I could get with my crappy points. I don't think it's worth it :p

    Tia / 3 - My mate is gonna do those dvds for ya :)
