:eek::eek::eek: I can’t quite believe how fast the time is going. It still doesn't feel real. I haven’t heard from our wedding venue/coordinator since booking the wedding, in fact my other half hasn’t seen the place yet! But we have made an appointment to have another look around and sort a few things out next Monday, so hopefully we’ll be able to cross a few things off the list. It’s lovely reading through the forum and getting updated on how everyone’s doing.....keep up the good work ladies! :T

I haven't even heard from our registrar yet... Should I be worried?! We received the 'Ceremony Pack' an sent our notices back but haven't yet returned the ceremony info as we haven't chosed the readings yet. Have you all had meetings with your registrar?

Yeah, ours didn't contact us though, we had to contact them to make the appointment.
Won't hear from them now until a week before the wedding.

I have just brought OH and me tickets back from our Hen/stag do's. Just need to book a ticket back the day before for our friend, n tickets down for the 3 of us. Need OH to confirm times with Best Man about that though! So could take a while! :rotfl:

cant we just get married tomorrow lol my house is full of wedding stuff

i am trying to hide some xmas and birthday pressies for the kids and OH but everywhere i normally hide things is filled with wedding stuff theres still so much more to come as well all my flowers are coming within the next 6 weeks so i will have to find somewhere to put them

i live in a 3 bed house - do you think it would be bad to make the kids share so i can have a wedding room HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

got a big vistaprint package through with my pens for the guest frame a couple of mugs the car magnets and some big banners only took 8 days so they are doing well this month

just sorted out goig away for the weekend in september to greyhound gathering with the family and the puppies so that will give me a well needed weekend off before the craziness starts

i have no bought and wrapped all the pressies for my SIL2Bs 18th at the end of september so thats on thing off the list and just bought my LO a load of books from the scholastic sale that was on the weekly email so her bday is coming along (also at the end of september)

monday will be busy i have meetings with DJ venue decorators and photographer

i have started the bigger LO one practising his reading he is only 5 but is doing brill with it

list of things to do for this week:
pick song to walk out ceremony to
book facial
make sure we are sure on honeymoon location (its barcelona and we are bit worried about the state of spain right now)
find hair thing for LO
start filling in the playlist builder for DJ
pick a first dance song (and stick to it)
book dance lessons (and actually go to them lol)
get OH pocket square

MIL is moving house at the end of august so will be taking a week out of planning to help her then so i am hoping to have almost everything done by the 1st of september, relax a bit with the weekend away and the girls birthdays and then go back in to full swing on the first of october during that month only dealing with little things that crop up and paying the final venue bits etc but that will all be prepared in september ready to send out

When I took the notice of marriage certs to them, they said I would just need to ring them about 2 weeks before the ceremony to confirm details - names, witnesses, vows, etc.
