    how inconsiderate... lol
    i hope they fit u in!
    well my best friend MOH and im her MOH in sept 2012 went out with her mum yesterday and bought her dress... im gutted i wasnt there but she said it was the one and she didnt want to leave and go back and it no be there as its a one off shop (in hornsea) its lovely £450 so good price. ill be going there in about 5months to get mine as i need to get some weight off 1st before i go shopping :)

    i emailed a venue last night and they are the only ones who got back to me straight away (they are my original choice too from feb lol) so i think seen as they have been the most helpful and trying to get me better prices all the time it will be them... i hope to god as i cannot cope going anywhere else now. i have the deposit waiting so fingers crossed they can do it for the price i want :)

    Im going to buy the mens ties next week (all the same) OH likes them so figured id just get them!

    still looking at centrepieces im trying to do something for under $50 for all the tables... 6 + top table... and since i cannot find royal blue flowers anywhere think im going to have to get white and royal blue ribbon / crytstals or somthing. x

    Shame about your Maid of Honor. :( but like she says if it's 'the one' then it would have been so gutting to have left it, taken you to see it, and for it not to be there.
    Fingers crossed for your venue!!
    Have you seen the photos someone put up the other week of their blue wooden roses? Might be an idea.

    (I have just ordered 3500 clear acrylic 4mm heart shaped crystals for my buffet table - white table cloth, burgundy runner, and clear table confetti).
