July 2012 Brides and Grooms

PinkPrincess83

Well I have ordered some nice compact mirrors and matching keyrings. (will probably keep a keyring for myself- why shouldnt I get a gift!!:rotfl:). So thats the bridesmaids sorted, flowergirl teddy is in my watch list on ebay- just need to order it, and I may just leave the nest man present to oh- although I know if I do that Ill still end up sorting it myself!!:D

Think Im going to try and get most of the sweets in the next week or so, I already have a big tub of lollipops, 99 rolls of love hearts (well I had to check they were ok!! :rotfl:), a box of pink and blue fizzy bottles and some boiled sweets with sherbert in (strawberry and lemon flavoured- tried these aswell and they are nice!!)

Rachel- Im not sure I can send you the link because the group is set to private. Shall I pm you and add you as a friend then invite you? There could well be an easier way but I dont know it!!

Well I should go to the gym today after work but I ache like mad!! Will have to see how I feel later.

Thanks! I tried to make change my profile settings so that people can search for me, but I don't think it has worked...

I will PM you my real name anyway so that you can try. If not can you PM me your name and I will try to add you...

There must be an easier way than this :rotfl:

Hi all, yay for the sun finally deciding to turn up and warm our bones!!!!

I felt a bit crappy yesterday so didn't make it to the gym, I felt guilty but am putting it behind me and going for my first personal training session tonight. Wish me luck!!

Sorry lol 6000!! we passed 3k a LONG time ago hahahaaaa

Just had a thought - talking to my mum yesterday I was saying how scary it is we're doing lots of lasts - like last time I'll see my brothers, last time I get my hair done etc.... but if you flip that on its head - soon we'll all be doing lots of firsts - the first time I book a restaurant in my married name etc - cannot wait!! :T

Oh, good thought!! :T

Ooh yes, I'm looking forward to the firsts too!:j

Lovely OH is making a lamb rogan josh for tea, which I can just about smell through my bunged up nose, so it must be strong!

I'm sitting next to a pile of cheques, including one to the registrar with all our ceremony details chosen - I'm really please with all the vows, readings and music - it's going to be lovely (and that's about 5 things knocked off my to-do list for the month - 11 to go!)

Once we're all married I'm after PMs of everyone's photos - I want to see everyone looking beautiful in their dresses!

Oooh, me too! I am dying to see all your wedding pics, and promise some PMs of mine! xxx

Well done on making progress with your list, you're flying!

Haha it's crazy really because all the other threads have nowhere near as many posts as we do! We should set up a facebook group lol!

I had a dream the other night, can't believe I didn't tell you all actually! We all decided to meet up after the wedding to show each other the photos, and we couldn't figure out how we would recognise each other when we met so Natalie suggested that we wear our wedding dresses haha. And then when we met we were in a Wetherspoons in Skegness of all places, all wearing our wedding dresses :rotfl:

xx

LMAO! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Hahahaaaaaaaaaa yes on both counts. Yes we should set up a FB group! A closed invite only affair so even Wanchai may decide to join us :rotfl:

And yes we should sooooooooo meet up wearing our dresses!! Can you imagine it - it'd be fab :rotfl:

Ha ha! :rotfl: You never know - I just might!

Confession time! I've decided to try to get a tan for the wedding, am sooo fed up messing about with fake tans and since the weather has turned nice I thought 'why not?' Now I am Miss SPF50 so this is breaking the habit of a lifetime, but it's just this once, I won't burn, just try to get 10 minutes every day and see how it builds up over the next 8 weeks. I won't go very brown (am too pale to tan much) but just a light, subtle tan would be perfect. It would be nice to have a tan for the honeymoon too.

MrsDrink

:T:T:T fab news Emma!

Just a word of warning - I may disappear off here for the next week and a bit - just until I know what I'll be doing in September. I will try to catch up at the weekend - if not I'll still be reading.

(PS Wanchai - we'll hold you to your promise of sharing photos! x)

Sorry to gate crash ladies i just need to get this out my system AAAARRRGGGHHH i am SOOOO excited!!!!!!!!! Its just hit me how close the wedding is and i just cant wait!!! People having been saying for months 'not long now' etc but i just smile politely and say yes because im thinking 'its ages and still loads to do' but now most things are sorted and only 6 weeks of work left it feels so real!

Natalie- hope everything goes ok work wise.

Well as Im on a roll Ive told oh we are sorting out best man and flowergirl presents tonight! Oh has now decided he wants to get best man a pewter tankard so i will show him a few then he can pick one and decide what he wants engraved on it!!

I feel like things are coming together quite nicely now. I did a table plan the other day, using round tables and it worked out well, so I think we are back to that now!! We will also be on a round table, with my sister (chief bridesmaid), her boyfriend, best man and then 3 really friends, which I think will be really nice, and I wouldnt want a completely seperate top table as I would feel watched, plus I think the round one will be more sociable!

I feel like this aswell, I have a few weeks more than you, but I am getting so excited, and as we do the little bits it becomes more and more real!

Im just booking in to have my nails. I used to love my false nails but when we got the house they had to go, so Im using this as an excuse to get them done again. She is going to do a trial which I want done 22nd June so they will be lovely for my hen night (s) then I will get them done again on the day before the wedding!
