  • Great colours CurlyLou - the ties on the men really tied in too! You look Great :D

    Gleeful - WHAT A DRESS!! It looks stunning! :D

    Cant believe we now have pics and lots of Mrs's on this thread now!

    13 days for me too, starting to get the nerves, also got a crazy busy week at work as only 6 working das left and dont wanna go in easter weekend to work if I can help it. No doubt ill end up on here though - its where I always seem to end up when I should be working! :eek:

    Dress fitting was fine - it needs taking up but dont need another fitting now. BM's practiced lacing. My MOH was streessing me out as she wasnt taking it very seriously but luckily one of the other BM's did and she was great :D

    Also had penultimate dance lesson today and the routine just 'clicked' and was great! Nervous about doing it in front of 150 people though!

    To do this week:
    Meet with DJ tomorrow
    Make Bouquet charm
    drop bouquet charm to florist and pay balance.
    decide on and order guestbook
    FG & PB presents
    Make collage of hen and stag pics for the toilets at venue
    Finish hubby to be's present box for morning of wedding
    Get some thank you for BM's etc for on the day
    Practice Dance
    OH has his manicure this week
    Make flip flop sign
    burn copies of music and dance moves of the dance we learned at the hen weekend and send to all to learn

    Im sure there is more..... arghhh :eek:

    Just being nosey - Loving all the photos!

    "Make collage of hen and stag pics for the toilets at venue"... oh what a great idea!! I *may* just have to nick this idea!! I have a few photos taken during the year we first met - I could get them printed out and stuck onto a board for our loos (we're having a garden party at home).:T

  • Steal away ladies, I saw the idea in a wedding magazine about a year ago! The idea I saw had the hen pics in the gents and stag pics in the ladies. Im going more conventional though and putting hen ones in ladies and stag in gents. Thought it would raise a few smiles, and ill keep it after and put it in our house x

    Phew! Glad it wasn't the MIL's secret idea for you!
    MM2b-I'm stealing the photo collage idea too please-lucky you told us, or our weddings might have been slightly different :eek:!!
    My to do list is SO huge, I'm making our wedding cake and need to make it, find the right colour icing (or food dye), hire the cake tins etc..PLUS loads of other bits.
    Tonight we're seeing the photographer at my parents house (where the reception is being held) and going to the church to go through the ceremony with the Vicar as the H2b has only been to 2 church weddings so is a bit nervous about what happens!!
    oh and to all the 30th April brides...
    WE'RE GETTING MARRIED NEXT WEEK!!!

    MM2B - I had a bad breakout last week, but no more this week, just red marks so am rubbing aquaeous cream on to help the healing... I need to get my eybrows shaped, never had it done before can you recommend anyone local to Theale? Weird we are getting married in the same locality on the same day!
    cant belive we get married next week. Despite still being slightly grumpy about all the extra hassle from the Royal wedding its rather nice that there are lots and lots of weddingy things on tv at the moment. Will be spoilt for wedding film choice on the evening of the 29th.

    I have been working on a 'things to do next week' list (divided by day) so H2B know what he has to do and when. Have persuaded him to go to his mums for dinner the day I collect my dress as I want to play dress up with my mum for a bit. Fortunately I only have to keep the spare room door locked from wednesday until Friday, have a very curious H2B and I dont trust him not to peek!

    Just realised last night we have a load of things to do for the honeymoon, find passports book airport parking etc. My to do list has just got longer!
