    This means that I hopefully get to see a picture flash from all your fantastic weddings earlier in the month! Dont forget ladies (and gents!)

    Next fitting for my dress is in a weeks time with my lovely dress lady in Theale. Off on holiday tomorrow for 5 days. Will be doing the table plan when away (wish me luck!)

    I only had one dress fitting as i didnt need anymore they said i am just trying to keep the weight off now so i can still fit in my dress. I am taking them Adios tablets which seem to be working, so fingers crossed!!!
    Things still left for me to buy are 6 white dressing gowns (not sure where the cheapest possible place would be - maybe primark?) Picture frames for my pictures for my absense candle, 3 bridesmaid and 2 usher wine glass charms and lucky dips for my mens favours which i cant get until the day before. Hope everyone elses plans are coming along nicely x

    6 white dressing gowns? I'm intrigued! :)

    Eeek, it's this month. We had our last takeout last night as we said we'd be good all of April. My dress lady told me I'm no allowed to gain or lose any weight as I've already had my fitting and she doesn't want panic sewing in the final week :)

    One of my BM's announced she's pregnant - which is lovely news!! Lucky the BM dresses aren't tight huggy ones :)

    Hope all the dress fittings today go well x

    Hello all

    Sounds like everyone is nearly there, it's exciting isn't it?! I've got my hen tomorrow, so looking forward to seeing all of my lovely friends for one last party as a single girl!

    Just tried out one of my little extravagant treats to myself. I bought a Chanel nail polish, it is lush, Pearl Drop. Got 10% off in House of Fraser, but it was still just over £15. Also treated myself to a bottle of my favourite perfume, Chanel Chance. Well, if a girl cannot buy Chanel for her wedding when can she. Please note, the rest of the wedding is very budget, my dress only cost £15 more than my perfume and nail varnish! You've got to have a couple of treats though i reckon!

    Hope you all have a lovely weekend whatever you are doing. If anyone else is having their hen this weekend, hope it rocks! x

    Oh dear, Moon had his stag doo last night. I picked him and his mate up afterwards. After we dropped his mate off, Moon had to have the car stopped twice, and was very ill when we got home too. He had work this morning, so I had to drop him in, and he was ill on the way too! Hope he's going to be ok at work, and not get told off for being hungover. I'm a bit annoyed that no-one stopped him drinking quite so much, as he normally doesn't drink more than 2 pints if we go out.

    I feel pretty rough this morning too, as I didn't get to bed until gone 2am as I was making his lunch etc, and I've got a cold and my tonsils are up too. (Fingers crossed it's better soon so I'm not ill on holiday.) I'd better go and get some breakfast (might help get rid of this headache).

    We had to pop into Virgin yesterday to ask a couple of questions about the weddingmoon, and it's a good thing we did, as she made us aware that we've not received our tickets yet, and we fly on Tuesday! Apparently the ticketing office's printer has stopped working, so we'll have to get tickets on arrival. It's all scarily close now!
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
    I married Moon 8/4/2011, baby boy born 26/9/2012, Angel Baby Poppy born 8/11/15, Rainbow baby boy born 11/2/2017
