    2 months to go indeed, yay!:j
    I've received all the day guests RSVP so I'm well chuffed. I also took my dress to the seamstress to be taken in (that's a good feeling), all in all I can't wait to get married now :D

    Woo cant believe its soo soon!

    Had my one and only dress fitting. It fit perfectly, im really lucky!
    Had my hair and make up trials, loved them both.
    Got my meal tasting next week.

    Still waiting on about half of my RSVP's. Some people are rubbish!!

    I've still got a heck of a lot of stationery to make. It's starting to stress me out. Gonna have a big bank holiday weekend of cutting and sticking I think
    What matters most is how well you walk through the fire

    I feel the same! So much to do and the time is coming round sooooo fast! We went to the church today though to hear the banns of marriage which was nice, and done the draft of the order of service, only problem I had with that was one of the hymns, who knew there were so many versions of Give me joy in my heart!

    We seem to be ticking things off our list at a steady pace.
    Ordered our M&S cake on Friday, pretty much sorted with the BM dresses, had our practice photo shoot on Sat, and chasing up the last few RSVPs before returning our planner to the venue.

    Mad the mistake of doing wedding stuff just before going to bed last night though, and I couldn't sleep as my head was reeling with Wedding thoughts!

    Dance lessons tomorrow eek!

    6 wks to go....... think I'm sorted now - just ordered a cake from M&S, got shoes & bag, dress fits fine (still gonna try to loose a bit more weight!), OH & BM got suits...
    Just need to arrange gifts and pay the rest of the deposits and all done - hope I'm this relaxed in a few weeks! :)

    RainbowDrops - Where have you got your stand for your M&S cake from??? been looking around, trying to find one to keep in budget but can't find anything cheaper than £30-40, a lot when the cake was £63!!!

    I got it from ebay - I spent about a month watching stands that kept going above my budget, and eventually I got one from a random seller for just under £30.

    Obviously time is getting a bit tight now, so you may have to act quick.
    I was also checking gumtree & preloved - give those a look too.

    Good luck.
