:jto MrsD for only having 8 months to go!

Really lovely and unusual to have an opal ring, I love it

Thanks, I am stupidly excited and it makes it feel more 'real' to have my actual wedding ring picked!!! Does that make sense?

FutureCooper

I am quite excited waiting on news from Wanchai. Did you get the dress???????? Dont keep me waiting til Saturday! Haha

MrsDrink

I agree - how did the dress 'trying on' go Wanchai - I really don't have any idea how on earth you are going to pick your favourite, you've tried on sooo many!! I tried on about 11 dresses in total - The One was the 2nd dress. I only went to two shops - the first shop was great - only tried on three dresses - was very specific. The second shop - I tried on pretty much anything that could be shortened to get an idea of the style I liked. But I guess I knew none of them were half as nice as The One, so I went back tried it on and fell in love. All this in one afternoon. The first day of wedding dress shopping.
Congratulations on getting your wedding ring! Lol if you're anything like me you'll try it on at least once a week :rotfl:

Lovecake - awww that is lovely that you have your birthstone in your engagement ring. Did he choose it himself or did you go with him to pick it?

Emma - well I jumped off the country road last night and as yet haven't got back on it - at the moment I'm sat in a field watching everyone else zipping past on the road, while I have a lay down and eat random crap lol.

Think I'm coming down with another cold/sore throat thing

MrsDrink

P.S. Just seen the "Holidays Are Coming" coke advert - yaaaaaaaaaaaay!! It is officially Christmas countdown in our house!

Hey everyone!:D

Haha, Sorry Natalie but I couldnt help but like and laugh at how your sat in a field!!

I havent been too bad today- could be better but could be a lot worst!

Mil2b cooked a yummy curry with chicken, peppers etc, was so yummy! And She has done me a centrepiece to see if I liked it- I love them- they are lovely!!:j. Have taken some pics and plan and sharing them next week!

:jWanchai for getting your ring. how was dress shopping?

FutureCooper

Well i can tick another Friday off my countdown - 35 to go now! That seems to have dropped off really quickly and bearing mind i equate each Friday to 1lb weight loss (in my dreams!) i better get on the diet motorway and quickly i think! I am a little behind schedule. My weigh in is Monday morning but i had a sneak peek today as i have been alot better than previous weeks and it looks like another 1lb . . . . fingers crossed. That means i only have 2 more to lose before the next target i set myself. The reward for that target is to try my wedding dress on again as I will be 1 stone lighter than when i brought it at the end of August. It feels like it has taken an age to move this stone


Still waiting to hear from Wanchai . . . . you can't hide from us

wanchai_2

Thanks for your kind comments ladies, sorry for not replying last night, was tired when I got back.

Dress shopping was really good, found a gorgeous dress but it's waaay over budget, £2,450!!! :eek: Tell me what y'all think:

Going again tomorrow so am hoping to make a decision after that!

I have now tried on my ring 3 times, am going to hide it away at MIL's house otherwise I will wear it away before the wedding!!! :rotfl:



MrsDrink - wow @ finding your dress on the first day! Good for you. Maybe I'm just an indecisive type (er, no maybe about it! :rotfl:). Hope you feel better soon btw - oh and yay for the Coca Cola ad! :j


FutureCooper - you go girl! I am chuffed for you. :T Hope you get to the 1st mark really soon! I need to get on that motorway myself, I've still got my R plates on! :rotfl:

PinkPrincess - can't wait to see pics of your centrepieces xxx
