    Im having cupcakes, the lady who makes them does fab cakes, and I got such a good deal. Im paying £125 for 80 cupcakes, a chocolate cutting cake and she will set it up and we get use of a cupcake stand- this would now cost over £200 with her. Its going to have flowers and butterflies on the cupcakes then on the side of the cake with be the flowers and butterflies.

    Ghostlove- fingers crossed for Mrs GLs passport, has he even had a date for his interview yet?

    Dress fitting slightly stressy - have explained all on FB, but it's to be sorted and I am collecting my dress on Saturday morning (plus the BM's dress and my veil)!!! Can't wait for it to be mine! :D

    Also met the florist and got everything confirmed and signed off. Very happy and relieved. Am exhausted now and in need of sleep. I didn't get to do anything else on my to-do list tonight but I'll catch up tomorrow.

    Thanks for the ideas. I love the idea of somewhere else doing it all!! My friend has requested cheese and pineapple on a stick!!

    Wanchai - I finish work on the 19th, married on 27th, honeymoon 29th. Soooo tired at the mo. I am dreaming of poolside snoozes in the sun

    H2b has been out wedding gift buying for me tonight. Woo hoo excited again. I love his surprise presents.

    Mel - ahhh, our honeymoons will be bliss - it'll be lovely to relax :A And how exciting that your OH is getting you a present, how thoughtful of him xxx

    Chop chop passport staff - Mr and Mrs Ghostlove have a honeymoon to book!

    FutureCooper - I love cheese & pineapple too!

    PinkPrincess - your cake sounds very intriguing - what's it going to be like? I'm having a simple M&S one - like lots of people seem to be doing!

    Have fun at work tomorrow wanchai - they might have forgotten you when you come back after your month off! Do you think they'll all get you a card? I don't think anyone will get me one - I work with boys and just one girl (who doesn't even give a birthday card to her husband).

    I bl00dy hope they will, I've given enough towards wedding/baby/leaving gifts in my time!!! :rotfl: We shall see. Oooh, let's see dress pics! Well done on your shopping success :D


    Emma - wow, bargainous cakes!!!! You got a fab deal there :beer: Yay for your table names, SUPER YAY for your dress and all the best for Hen #3 (mind yourself!!).


    Hurry up passport peeps, and sort out Mr GL!!!!

    I don't think my work will bother. I have only been with them 12 months and they arent overly friendly bunch. Theres a few nice girls though so who knows :) certainly wont be off managers back :rotfl:

    Feeling a bit less stressed about my dress now as mum has said she will come with me. However could have really done without it this saturday but oh well needs must and rather her do it asap for me :)

    Nope. :( It's really getting me down!
    I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
