    Ha that's funny! Does he want to get married though, eventually?

    How long have you been together?

  • He keeps saying that he does, but in his own time I think...

    We have been together 3 years on 29th of December and I am totally ready for a proposal...saying that though we are both only 22 so plenty of time for all that...

    It's quite bright here! Glad you are ok though, I was getting worried! :)

    Nooooo....Not setting a date....yet! A while back OH mentioned Dec 2012 and when we were at the wedding reception on Sunday he said about December again, at the time I was like no way but as he pointed out, I love Xmas and December. So I was trying to weigh up some pro's and cons of that time of year. The weather aspect doesn't bother me really as I've known people to book July weddings and it was pouring down the whole day :(, they also paid peak season rates for the privilege. Think my only concern is people not coming because it's near Xmas but then if they make up an excuse to not come they aren't worth the invite anyway.

    Think OH doesn't really mind either way and I know it shouldn't be the main focus BUT....Dec & Jan are best time to go to the Maldives! :rotfl:. It certainly wont be next year as it's not enough time to save but I just happened to notice that the 1st of Dec 2012 is a saturday :D. Otherwise I would like to get hitched on a significant date rather than just randomly pick one if that makes sense?!

    Very happily married on 10th April 2013 :D

    As long as the invites were sent out in plenty of time, the fact that its near Christmas shouldn't matter as they should put you first!

    It was be lush if it was really frosty day with brilliant sunshine, then you headed off to the Maldives, perfect!

    I would actually love a snowy wedding although they must be a logisitical nightmare! Quite like candles and fairy lights so sure it could be done nicely. Hmmm, plans plans!

    Otherwise I think it would have to be Friday 13th :cool:

    Woo you can be my net buddy wedding planner when the time comes if you want ;)
