I've just checked in with this thread, never really get on laptop much and searching on my phone just tends to annoy me, anyway, wow you guys!!! You're all so organised, I have done literally nothing.

Well thats a lie, I've joined slimming world (Need to shift about 3/4 stone before the wedding, now the baby is here there is just no excuse!)

I've also found the favour boxes I'm going to get, (I can't post a link, as i'm still new?! But Kress2044 is selling them on eBay

Although gonna search around because I'm sure I saw them way cheaper from a hong kong shop!

Also decided i'm putting love hearts inside, I can get 200 on ebay for under £15, might buy them soon, so it's one less thing!!

But still havent found a venue, looked at dresses or anything, absolutely going to start though now.

I've got some catching up to do!!

Lol! Don't worry - I've seen people go from nothing planned to full wedding in two months, although I don't know if any of them would recommend it Good idea to look at venues ASAP though, as they tend to get booked up quite fast, particularly the well-known ones. You've got ages to sort everything out yet, just let us know if you need any help with anything.

TBH I feel disorganised compared to some people here, who have the dress, photographer, dj etc sorted already! :eek: I've only really got venues (which still need a bit of negotiation re costs and payments to be made), style of my dress and pattern for MoH's dress done, and ideas of the general 'look' of the wedding. Celebrant and photographer are next on our to do list after we've finalised things with our venues!

tryingtobetheprefectHW I'm only trying to be organised cause I've got family coming from overseas and I'm going to be really busy with studying. Any tips or advise you only have to ask.

Oh dear, just started looking at venues online, unless I win a the BGT £25K competition think I can rule out my top 3 venues! must read this get married in a castle for £2500 thread!

I'm going to do a guest list today. Maybe.

Might just google wedding dresses!

Also are you wanting religious,civil service? and to have the receotion at the same venue? There's always room for negociation see the thread on haggling on a venue (I think it's called) Oh and almost forgot do you want to get married in the uk?

Hi Sian,

Wow yes it is a small world! Our ceremony is at 4.15pm, what about you? Have you booked through the tour operator or are you using a wedding planner?

It's so exciting, wish it was nearer. I've got so many ideas of what I want to do. Have you been to Lindos before? We have been every year for the last 5 years. Going again this September as usual so really looking forward to that!

Thank you, I'm based in West Yorkshire, and definitely want a UK Wedding.

I think I would want a religious ceremony, mainly cos I'd like the pretty church photos, and i know it's what my grandma would have wanted, how ever I am open to the idea of getting married having the breakfast / night do all in the same place. Would make transport a little easier.

I'm so excited about the little things, room decorations, table centres, dresses, but venues just don't get me excited, suppose i just haven't found the one yet!!

Will definitely take a look at that thread, Ive just been looking at the prices and wondering how we are ever going to afford it!!

Scotsbride

Found these tryingtobe the perfect HW no idea on prices but I genersally found it largely depends on what you want

Ours is at 3.30pm!! They're squeezing us in aren't they! i tried to get one later on but this was the only time slot available but i really wanted this date to fit in with flights etc.
I've booked through wedding planner at lindos mare hotel. She's called Efi and has been lovely, we're flying out to meet her on the 27th June to go through everything. I've never been to lindos before so i really hope i like it as much as i think i do! my friend recommended it and i love the idea of a mamma mia style wedding! Where do you stay usually? have you decided on a reception venue yet?
i wish it was sooner too!!
