    :j Goodluck for all brides tomorrow. Hope you hope an amazing day, cant wait to see some pics.

    Well Ive had a productive evening. Oh finished of the table name cards, plus we laid out all the sweets to work out what was going wear, we need to get 2 more medium glass bowls. We have also decided to put the love hearts on each table in some little glass dishes, but we only had 4 and we need 5 so I need to get another set of them aswell. We also laid out who will sit where on each table. And I finally managed to get my photo charm just right aswell. Oh and my buttons came today:D

    Heres my latest to do list:
    Print out photo game (this weekend)
    Print out table names (when card arrives)
    Print out cd cover to go on each table (this weekend)
    Buy thank your cards for parents, my Nan (shes paid for the cake) and best man (this weekend)
    Buy gift wrap or bags for mums, best man and flowergirl presents (this weekend)
    Ring registry office to order extra certificate(s?) (monday)
    Check buttons go with dress then arrange for the alterations to be done (tomorrow)
    Have make up trial (tomorrow)
    Buy remaining glass bowls for sweet table
    Buy hairspray and grips for hair
    Oh needs to pick up and pay for suits
    Fill out api for honeymoon (this weekend)
    Online check in (next week)
    Pack for honeymoon (I need to get a few more bits then I can sort out what Im taking)
    Tie ribbon onto sweet jars
    Stick butterflies onto place name cards (Thursday before the wedding)
    Take everything to venue (thursday before the wedding)

    Im sure theres more to be added!!

    Oh works one weekend a year- and youve guessed it, its the weekend before the wedding, hence why I would like to get as much sorted this weekend.

    :rotfl: at what to do with your arm Mel!!

    Well done on your progress PinkPrincess, and good luck with the list this weekend. I found Clintons was the only one of the major stores that stocked cards specifically for bride and groom's parents to say thanks and bridesmaids and best man (they don't stock ushers ones - they are getting regular thank you cards!).

    I've just wrapped the best man & ushers' presents. Could not find the right size gift box after trawling round so many shops in the last week or so - they have gift bags and gifts wrapped in bubble wrap and paper.

    Only seven things left on the list (not counting wrap parents' gifts when they arrive next week):

    Pack for honeymoon
    Pack for wedding
    choose video tracks etc
    take things to venue in advance
    pick up groomsmen's outfits (just the replacement cravat)
    Pick up cake & dress
    pay final balance to DJ

    Are the buttons perfect Emma? X

    Well I have begun more serious honeymoon packing. Got all our dive stuff named and packed. And while I was up there MrD joined me so we practiced putting on our rings! :) my ring was tight over the knuckles but then my hands are hot at the moment. His slid on really nicely :) that made a bubble of excitement rise up :) I've also written a cheque out for 2 marriage certificates :)

    Oh and tomorrow is my hen day with my CBMIIWHO :)
