  • Hi everyone

    Just wondered how everyone is getting on? So far I have

    Venue
    Registrar
    Dress (£100 from chairty shop and it is perfect!!!):j
    DJ
    Hair and Make Up
    Photographer

    I thought I had sorted my younger bridesmaids dress out - bought in on ebay for £12.99 but now not sure it goes with my dress. Oh well will re-sell I think

    I also thought I had my theme colours sorted, Navy and burnt orange. Now not sure if the orange will go with the dress! Mmmm not sure what to do.

    Still need to sort flowers out and oh yeah colours!!:)

    Found and ordered my dress today, so excited, absolutely love it!
    How is everyone else getting on?
  • Still not much further... made some appointments for dress shopping in December, putting it off as long as I can too lose some more weight!
    So... ceremony and reception venue booked, notice given (though we are hoping that we can bring the time forward...!), chair covers booked... eek that's it!
    Apart from that I just keep picking up little bits and bobs, like jars and things for our sweet station.
    So much left to do!!!
    Anyone else going to the National Wedding Show next week?
  • I've had a bit of a setback in that I thought I'd found my perfect dress, rang the nearest stockist to see if they had a sample I could try on and found they didn't stock that particular dress. So I either have to order it blind or take an 11 hour round trip south to Aberdeen, which is the next nearest place that deals with that designer. That said, my next door neighbour's husband works offshore and she's in charge of making sure I don't buy anything that makes me look ridiculous, so we could always tie it up with collecting him at the end of a fortnight's shift...

    I'm getting slightly worried at how Bridezilla-ish I'm becoming though - yesterday I signed up for something I've wanted to do for YEARS: get my teeth sorted out! I'm having Invisalign, I start the process in a fortnight's time and they should be straight and white by the wedding :D
