Almost, nearly a catastrophe with the dress . . .finally collected it this morning and the seamstress went off to add poppers whilst I waited for 10 mins. 40 minutes later she brought the dress down all sealed up and confessed she had cut herself badly whilst doing it dripping blood on the dress :eek: Luckily she had specialist stain stuff and removed it straight off. Phew!! Could you imagine if I had seen that happen?!!! She is safely home with the beautiful top I designed too. Can't wait to wear her now.

:eek: bet your so glad you have your dress safe at home now!

MIl2b was saying Ive been very calm about my dress and the fact it wont be done till Weds and I wont try it on until Thursday- although Im now wondering whether to have a half day Weds and work Thursday morning instead so I can go to my mums whilst her friend does my dress so I can try it on there and then- will have to ask on Monday at work if this would be ok. Theres nothing I can do so theres no point in stressing myself out!!

I picked my table plan up today- I was expecting it to be a3 because the other companies quoted me a similar price for an a3 one- picked it up and it must be a2- it looks massive- really pleased with it though.

Also went on a mission to get flowergirl socks and hairbobbles, looked everywhere and couldnt find any hairbobbles I like that would go with her headband and dress, last stop was Matalan and they had a set which has a few options, my Mum paid and they came up at 50p!! very pleased with that!!

My sister did a trial on my flowergirls hair today- and it was perfect, just how I wanted it and it looked lovely. Shes having 2 small french plaits, going about half way down her head then the rest will be down and curled- and my sister is going to do it so that saves hairdresser time (and will mean she will do her hair at their house so thats 3 less people at my mums!)

Its very quiet on here this evening- anyone would think theres some weddings and parties going on today!!:rotfl:

Well Im ahead of my plans for this weekend and have typed the childrens camera game up- have done one for each child, with the photos varying according to age of child and who they know. All I need to do now tomorrow is check that theres a good variety of photos, check Ive used a variety of people, havent missed out anything key and then print them up!

Must be quiet because Natalie is having her second wedding party!

This afternoon we brought the rose bushes for parents called: Lovely Bride. Also got the compact mirrors from Monsoon for my hairdresser and friend who's driving me to the register. Another job ticked. Still got the paper poms poms to make though. Might have a go tomorrow.

So very true
We've had such a lovely time. I will write more when we've had a marathon cleaning up session. Both the mums are coming to give us a hand.

I'm next on the list :eek:

Right so as promised - here are some photos. I will remove all of those that have other people on by the end of tonight as I haven't got their permission for sharing them.
Enjoy!!

The killer heels


LOVE this photo - I *think* this is my favourite one.





Would love to know what we were laughing about:


I will share some photos from the reception - I took an ariel shot from an upstairs window but it's on my mum's camera.

Natalie, I just welled up looking at those. Massive congratulations again. I'm so pleased all your efforts were worth it, you're an inspiration to anyone wanting to DIY their wedding xxx
