    I bought extra sweets for consumption immediately... I'm keeping the other (huge) jars sealed! I tried to keep the sweets in my colour theme but couldn't resist buying a few more for the evening too to make a candy table. I bought some cute heart shaped ones and ring shaped ones in case any of my guests wanted to propose with a sweetie ring! what am I like? :p
  • I went to the cash and carry during the week to get an idea of prices and have got my friend a tub of sour sweets to go with her christmas present- and I almost opened them a couple of days after buying them!!

    I think im going to have
    giant haribo strawbs
    haribo hearts
    cola bottlesd
    chocolate raisins (ohs request)
    something sour
    maybe haribo rings (haha- in the hope that if he hasnt done so by then my sisters boyfriend proposes- we even sent him a picture yesterday of engagement rings- hence why I was in goldsmiths but he just doesnt take the hint!!)
    lollipops
    some kind of dib dabs (ohs request)
    lovehearts

    I know everyone has different favourite sweets- but can anyone thinks of anything really obvious that everyone likes that Ive missed out??
  • Whoops- I really love my tiara, but I have just seen this:

    I've been looking at necklaces on Glitzy Secrets - :( Really shouldn't have done!! Lol. There are some really lovely ones! BUT I will wait till I have my dress before I think about changing the necklace I'e got for a GS one! And I'm not going to buy the Rainbow Club shoes unless they appear on ebay in my size (I will keep looking).

    Alice - brilliant that you've booked your minimoon!! :D Did you book it in your married or maiden name? :T Exciting!!

    Emma - I can't think of any other sweets - but then I would just gorge on Harbio Hearts :D (And yep you still owe us some piccies!!) Lol.

    Oh and I forgot to share some good news with you all. I *think* this is the first time I've ever been able to wear my jeans *inside* my wellies - my calfs are usually so big that my jeans have to go on the outside of the wellies - but today when digging our Christmas tree up I was able to wear thick socks and jeans tucked into my wellies!! :)
    I *will* be skinny, I *will* be skinny (again) lol.
  • Natalie- tree looks fab.

    Wanchai- where are you to let us know how dress shopping went???:D

    Natalie - congratulations on being able to wear your jeans inside the wellies!

    I've booked the hotel in my maiden name as I'm still not sure whether I'll change my name... does anyone know that if I do eventually change my name, will I have to change it straight away? or could I wait for a couple of weeks (when I'm back from the minimoon) and do it then?

    Sweets wise, as we're having pink and yellow (citrus) as our colour theme, we have bought:

    Foam mushrooms (mix of tiny ones, pastel yellow and pink)
    Foam mushrooms (bigger ones, white and pink) - I'm not sure if we will combine them with the first lot... or will have to come up with different table names
    Milkshake (white and pink)
    Lemon Sherbet (lots of it!)
    Fried eggs (yellow and white)
    Lovehearts - was thinking we'll have that for the top table and then put one on each guest's plate? as we bought a huge bag! 3kg...
    Mashmellows (white and pink)

    I think that's all for the table centres. for the evening sweets buffet, we have bought a few more:

    Haribo rings
    Giant strawberries
    fizzy hearts

    there may be a couple more but I can't remember from the top of my head
