That's loads Becca! I was only gonna buy my bridesmaids a necklace with a personalised card (probably from funkypigeon) as I'm paying for their hair, dress, corsage and shoes... Maybe I'm being a little bit of a miser...

Ushers, well that's my OH's domain so I don't know what he's thinking about with regards to gifts...

I feel like a right miser now. For gifts, I have bought them each a pearl necklace to wear on the day, unfortunately budget doesn't stretch to much more than that. I was thinking about making them each something as well but I don't know what yet. Either that or I win the lottery

Oh ok maybe I'll ditch the wine then. I want to buy my MOH a nice necklace as she is the easiest to buy for and has easily been the most supportive, loveliest MOH I could have asked for! Thanks ladies x

Welcome to the thread BLUis, I hope you're managing to get sorted with the new time scale



How exciting Gemmzie! When have you asked for the RSVPs to be received back by?



Awww Rahven, I also had a horrid wedding dream a few weeks ago... My mum changed our date and brought it forward by 10 months, she changed my dress to one I hated and instead of walking down an aisle to the H2B, I just strolled in and stood next to him and waited for the guests to sit down... It was horrid and I woke up feeling really angry

But we must remember Rahven... Tis only a dream, and our weddings will be wonderful

:j:TOooooh and we gave notice today! Yay! And our Vistaprint stuff came AND my bridesmaids gifts came too! Good day despite the rubbish stuff going on in Brum....:T:j

Thanks Spoony, I thought we had bags of time, but I really don't! We made a list on Tuesday night of what needs doing and when. Nearly everything is NOW!!

I am going to order my new STD today and then we are going to go to Hobbycraft and get the stuff for the invites. Hopefully we will be able to make something ourselves, but we aren't crafty at all!

I had a weird dream the other night about the wedding too, before all the upheaval! Cant remember now what it was about, but I know I woke up sobbing and my OH had to calm me down!

Thanks Danielle!! I really didnt think we would get a registrar on the date with it being a bank holiday, but they still had lots of slots free!!

I need to get some new STD!! I had ours ready to send out a year to the day, but now have to order some more. Thank goodness for Vistp*int! When are you sending out your invites?

Do we get a flash??

I thought about the same to be honest. Going on Vistaprint in a little while to sort out my STD, as soon as they come, we will send them out.
