Hi All

Not been on much and am still way behind on the wedding planning. You guys make me feel even worse with how organised you are!!!

But.......

We have now booked our honeymoon, we are off to the maldives without the kids yippeee!!! And are then having a week at the OHs parents caravan when we get back with the kids.

Firstly please don't let us make you feel worse!! Honestly!! There really is no point in stressing - it doesn't achieve anything - ha so much easier said than done (for the last three weeks I've been on one great big stress train thanks to work).
But secondly - sooooooooooo jealous of your honeymoon!! S'not fair!! xxx

biscuitmad - you're the 14th too, aren't you? I think I have a couple of other date twins too, but post #1 hasn't been updated! Don't be stressing, I'm just as behind as you are lol! Woo for your amazing honeymoon!!! :beer:Lauralou - I agree, 'Mummy and Daddy's wedding' would be lovely, or else 'Guest of honour' as I'm sure she will be lol!Natalie - I would stick with the hotel too, any noise will only be during the day while you're off diving Oooh, good point re delegating - I will ask OH to cc the email to me so I can see that he's sent it!! :rotfl: He's currently trying to book us somewhere to stay for our first two nights on HM, he likes booking holiday things so I'll leave him to it.Got my hair cut at lunchtime - no layers, just a choppy straight cutp.s. just booked the Jenny Packham headpiece to hire but it's got a black band (I have blonde hair)! Why didn't I notice this before?? Could I cover it with pale fabric or something that can be removed before posting it back???This is it:http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dHOpyWcEhHI/TGPIZ7EhGaI/AAAAAAAABh0/3oXIrxc1fKw/s1600/30091_398600713554_10961348554_4013168_559810_n.jpg

OH YES, and I've finally given notice to marry! :j :j :j

I went in and she said the computers were all down. I was soooo annoyed after last time when I had the wrong paperwork, but then she said she could do it by hand and it would be fine. Had to sign my name with a fountain pen and messed it up a bit so she told me to practice before the big day haha!

Grrrr- I just wrote a long post and it didnt post!

My flowergirl teddy arived today, its so cute and im very impressed with the service as I only ordered it Sunday.

Wanchai- that headpiece is lovely, bet you cant wait to wear it with your dress.

Mel :j on booking the airport hotel. We have booked to stay the night before our flight- mainly because there was hardly any difference in price.

LauraL- I think what you have put is fine.

Sks :j on giving notice.

Natalie- I guess it would depend what work they are doing. Personally, I would tempted just to find out the costs in changing then would make a decision from there. Im just thinking what if its the restaurant they are doing while you are there- I know you wont be there during the day but if your ai or half board this could affect you. Im sure it would be fine though.

Biscuit mad- you have plenty of time yet, dont panic.

It hasn't since Laura has been busy being a fabulous mum, but I have been updating the 'updated list' - which the boardguide has linked to in Laura's original post. You can see it here:

I have looked at the costs - and it would be a fair amount to change keeping to the same dates we've chosen - which we're pretty much stuck to because we've already booked the diving. The letter says "The Sunrise Diamond Beach will undergo a continuing refurbishment of the rooms at the hotel." Which I may have wrongly assumed to be bedrooms rather than eateries. :eek:!!

Oh and I've decided I should have a dress to get changed into after the ceremony for the BBQ so I don't get my dress all smokey before the party. So I'm now having an evening of retail therapy online :T

FutureCooper

Ooh another dress Natalie, a definite yes!!

I love the Team ---- for Erinna's bib

Who was it that was trying the fake tan?? How did it go?? I've had to cancel my spray tan on Saturday but I've gone a lighter shade of pale since the weekend of sunshine so I'm thinking of trying St Tropez . . . Anyone tried that?
