20 October: Nic Noc Noo 103 DAYS TO GO

...

so is it :eek::eek: or :T ?????

definitely :eek: :eek: now i've seen it in days (or sleeps!). blimey...

have got a few things sorted over the last week or so.
Flowers: quotes received and order to be placed tomorrow :T
Hen do - done and dusted Saturday just gone, would have been much much better if I HADN'T had a flipping tummy bug halfway through the night (and no it wasn't drink related), still I enjoyed myself and so did everyone else.
Centrepieces coming along, my mum brought one up with her at the weekend - very pleased.
Seen shoes for flower girl but need to confirm her size before i buy them...and probably wait to see if she grows any more before the wedding.
going for hair trial a week on Saturday, also trying to arrange meeting with chair cover lady for same weekend as down in Wales - oh and need to make appointment with florist re. table arrangement that forms part of my package at the hotel.
should probably arrange to meet with the hotel co-ordinator that weekend too as haven't heard/spoken to them for a while (since January actually - is that normal??? :cool: )

double_mummy

yeah i only talk to my co-ordinator when i need to get access i have had a proper meeting with her since feb

i am getting worried about my hair and hen do cant have my hair trial until the 6th october and not having a hen do until the 13th and not buying the kids outfits until the 15th i think i am leaving quite a bit of it very late but cant do hair as am only having extensions done the day before, hen do is so that all the foreign guests will be here and the kids is because my two wont stop growing they are already out of most of the clothes we bought for the holiday which was only like 7 weeks ago

lots and lots still to do 3 meetings on monday at the venue so we should be able to get lots done yay

johannalf88

17 October: CupcakeLisa 100 DAYS TO GO

so is it :eek::eek: or :T ?????

Mine is a bit of both!!

Wedding is pretty much sorted, just need flowers and favours and a few small things so that is :T

Also found out my dress has been shipped to me and it wasnt due to arrive till september :T

however my cat is really ill and silly me never got him insurance and lots of my work has been cancelled over the past few weeks due to the weather so I need to find lots more £££ for our spends

We are currently selling everything in our house that isnt essential so thats def :eek::eek:

Lisa

double_mummy

awww poor you a pet being ill is never fun

glad everything is almost done and that your dress has come early YAY

stir_crazy

Aww Lisa, our cat was ill last year, not only was it stressful knowing your pet was ill, it was stressful worrying what the end bill was going to be.

Ours is a bit of both too, I finished writing all our day invites last night, except for one, because I made a mistake and didnt have a spare so I need to get another one printed off. Ordered the BM dresses too, yay! They're due in 7-8 weeks because they're not standard sizes.

So that's everything ordered now, phew!

Edit: I havent spoken to my wedding coordinator since I booked the venue 2 years ago - maybe I should get on the phone to them....

johannalf88

We haven't spoken to our venue either... Other than paying installments! I think we may go at the end of August to check out a few things like music player etc. OH has just got an extra day off after the BH, so (as we r both Dorset way) we will order glasses, buy soft drinks, order the beer from brewery, do our centrepieces and visit venue!
