    We're the same I think - which means I need to get a move on!

  • Update:
    Reception booked
    Registary Office booked (payment due in Jan)
    flowers bought and made!
    Jewellery bought
    Half invites printed. Need to make them this month
    Gran going to make cake
    My dress bought (need to drop a size for it to look right)
    Bridesmaid dress found. Will be ordering this week.
  • Eek, all this talk about getting invitations out has now panicked me a bit! We're having ours done by a friend at work - I've just called her to arrange to sit down tomorrow and go through it all!

    Otherwise, everything is going well. I've had the first fitting of my dress now. The designer went into administration so the shop owner got the dress in early. It fits well, just needs hemming up. I've left it with her and won't go back in until the end of January.

    I'm starting to look through readings now for the ceremony. It's harder than I thought!

    We've also booked in for our menu tasting in November. We can't make our minds up so we're having a different menu each to try and make a decision.

    slowly fading, has one of your BM told you she doesn't want to try on dresses when we go dress shopping :s. I'm getting to the point where I wish I didn't have any. It took a week to find a date they could all make. And they could only agree on one date for the hen do which I know other hen's I want there won't be able to make :s. Grrr..... sorry needed a get off my chest moment.

    Megan Welcome, no not long now less than 6 months :) which day is yours?
