Thanks to Kal and Losingpatience for the luck!

Am in control today but had a meltdown last night! Two place settings were missing and I lost the necklace I was meant to wear. My sister has been fantastic keeping me calm and she bought the identical necklace and a garter as I'd forgotten to buy that as well... Gutted about the necklace as OH had bought it for me when he moved in with me and it was my something old. And I had matching earrings. Oh well, OH will have to be my something old now!

Am half way through packing for tonight at my mum's and the wedding night, then I'm done til my nail appointment later.

Lovely to see the photos, you looked fantastic and so happy. Looking forward to seeing more pics from everyone else!

Lots of luck to my wedding twins and the brides for this weekend. Have a fantastic time! x

It's late, and my hairdresser/make-up artist is arriving at 6.30am, but i just wanted o check in before tomorrow!!

I too spent a few hours getting my brows done, manicure & pedicure, collected my dresses from my mums, shipped son and OH off to the hotel, decorated the church, decorated the hotel, eaten a 3 course meal with 30 of our guests, paid £200 for 14 bottles of wine for the meal (they know how to charge!) and have just got home......
Now i need to pack my case for saturday morning, and for the honeymoon (setting off saturday afternoon)...

Plan for tomorrow is
6.30am - let hairdresser in - eat porridge and drink tea....

Good luck to all tomorrow's brides (and Sats), can't only remember Nikki44 as she has just posted above *waves*. Have spent hours getting pampered and running around, even forgot table plan, duh! OH's mum in hosp so won't make wedding, only good news, sister and BIL over from Canada, yeah! I am shattered so off to bed, massive good luck tomorrow everyone, can't say much more than that xxx

P.S. just lost a huge post, too tired to re-type (and nail extensions making it difficult - they look fab though, ha)

scorpiokitten

Well just less than half an hour to go here till 11/11/11, and still can't sleep!

Bridal hair and make up artist coming to our suite at 9.30 so let's hope she can work frickin miracles!

The Omni Orlando Resort hotel is just beyond breathtaking and is the best place I could ever want to be for my big day. Along with this glorious sunshine! Was topping up my tan by the pool today, kinda surreal lol

Had my nails done over here before with nail art on my ring fingers and they have turned out beautiful. Best set I've ever had.

Well, I best get some shut eye, next time I come on here I'll be a married woman (wedding at 1pm here, 6pm your time) so would like to wish all other 11/11/11 brides good luck and can't wait to see pics

Have woken up at stupid o'clock AGAIN! Had lovely evening back at my parents and my sister stayed over as well - they got out a few old slides of family holidays! Luckily I didn't get emotional.

Slight problem - my dad is a proper clumsy clot and stepped in a pothole earlier when meeting me at the hotel (to leave my car) and he reckons he has twisted his ankle. He can be a bit of a drama queen when he's ill so he's been a nightmare! Made him sit with his ankle elevated and a bag of frozen peas on it! Fusspot...

Can't wait for OH to open his pressies, and I have some too! Got my girls coming at 9am for bacon rolls then hairdressers arriving at 10am. Then make up, quick lunch, in my dress and off we go at 2.30pm. Can't believe it's today!!

Good luck everyone! xxx

Hi everyone it's very quiet on here - wonder why!! Hope all who got married last weekend are enjoying honeymoons/mini-moons and everything went well for you.

Our day on Saturday was just perfect it all went really smoothly and me and OH totally relaxed and let the hotel and our wedding party look after everything (all of whom were amazing!) The sun shone and it was so mild that while we had photos in the afternoon everyone was outside and commented on how warm it was.

I loved being the centre of attention all day (which I'd been nervous about leading up to it) and having our friends and family all in one place was the best feeling ever.

Our mini-moon to Wiltshire was lovely and we feel closer than ever

Only slight issue we've had is that we managed to lose the certificates somewhere (yes both of them!) oh well, we've ordered more and it'll be something to look back and laugh over despite the tears it's caused

We have so many photos which I'll share once I've worked out how. We're waiting for the official ones but should only be a few days to wait. Can't wait!!

Look forward to hearing about how everyone elses went. Good luck to littlecat and imber for today/tomorrow. Is that everyone then?!

I'm Married too!!!!!!

You may all call me Mrs Lindley from now on lol

11-11-11, weather here in West Yorkshire was grey and miserable....
I couldn't sleep - and was up at 6.30. once the hair & make-up artist arrived, I felt calm, and whilst she started on a bridesmaid, I took the dog for a walk, i felt so calm....

As she was finishing us off, the cars arrived with my son and uncle (who they had collected from the hotel on the way) and once I saw matthew, I burst into tears - he looked so grown up and so utterly fantastic.
Poor Emma had to re-do my make up, and get me into my dress, which made me late! I arrived at 1pm.
The vicar was lovely, and it was lovely being married by somebody that knew us very well as a family.
Matthew wrote a speech for the church, and there was not a dry eye...
Bob was very emotional, bless him - we all had a fabulous day.

The service went by in a blur, and it was drizzling and wet after the service, so we zipped straight back to the hotel - The holiday Inn were absolutely fantastic!!
The speeches were funny, cringeworthy and emotional - the photo's are amazing!!

We went off on honeymoon on 12.11.11, to Cyprus. I spent the 1st 2 days crying! I was emotionally wrung out - after that, i've come down with a chest infection, and it took 2 days to get home. We got home at 8.30pm last night, and it was back to work today! I'm exhausted!

i'll try to add photo's, but i'm not sure how..... I can add people to my facebook if anyone wants to see piccies.....

Hope everybody else had a fabulous day - the weather on 12th was brilliant, I adit, I was slightly envious, lol, but I was dead chuffed that you had a nice day, and thought about you....

Hope to hear some updates soon!!
