    I dont begrudge all your wedding plans one little bit!! I dont ever plan to get married (strong independant type pah!) but if I ever did I would prob just go abroad lol and a quick reception party here lol.
    It all builds to a heck of a lot of money for one day doesnt it? But you need it to be special :love:

    Pammy- there have been several times we've been tempted by the idea of eloping or something to avoid the fuss. However too many people would feel really hurt if we did! Just trying to make it as simple, fuss free and frugal as we can while trying to make it special!

    Totally, best way to be. Best of both worlds. I guess with me I dont have many close friends and family so it wouldnt really matter lol

    We were going to have a quiet wedding, but it does escalate without you having much control over it and without realising it. Still I only plan on doing it one day and we're trying to save money every way we can.

    Try not to worry too much about the inspection, you'll be fine.

    Inspection over! Didn't get observed!
    Another NSD.
    We were trying to have a quiet wedding but when we added up the numbers for close family and friends we realised it wouldn't be that quiet!! When I think of everyone I really want them to be there but when I think of everyone being there all at once it scares me!!

    That's exactly how we thought. I really thought we could get away with 30 people, but we're struggling to keep it to 50 and I refuse to go over that amount.

    Great news on the inspection.
  • Jellie... Its your day adn you do it however you want.... If you want a big bash for ewveryone then do it!!! DansDad (who is far too cowardly to ask permission from Ma as I want!) and I would disappear off to Vegas and do it there, hopefully not too tacky style though :D
