July 2012 Brides and Grooms

Well this one won't make the final cut - but yes - it is the final version.

I have started a thread asking for help finding paper. At the moment I've been sticking white card onto the back of burgundy card... if I said sod it and bought a pack of 50 bespoke A4 sheets for £34. I can then use these for the invites (8 sheets), thank you cards (8 sheets), and 68 paper hearts (34 sheets). I had budgeted £80 for the invites and thank you cards - so far I've spent £30.71 on samples/equipment, leaving just under £50 left of that. And the hearts I was planning on making would have been £10, so I'd have saved that off the decorations budget. Lol trying to justify it


*Edit*
Just priced up and it would mean I've spend £90+ on the invites... eeek that isn't good!! I will I will just have to not be a perfectionist and go for the very good home made look!

So here we go... here are the latest photos of my bouquet and a buttonhole I've made (which has been given the nod of approval from MrD!). I had added some 'vanilla grass' leaves from Dunelm.





Right tomorrow I'm off for a weekend away straight from work so I won't be online from tomorrow morning until Sunday night.

hey guys.
I am going on to try on dresses tom. Have got it narrowed down to two and am hoping I decide tom (think I already have though). Is it too early to buy it. My mum seems to think it is as the style of dress is on sale until Dec. xx

Hiya Tracey (I really should be packing argh!)
I would say it's never too early lol.

Am so excited. Today I ordered my wedding dress. It is not the one I mentioned I thought I was going to go for, but the more I try this one on the more I love it. xx
