Although we've been busy with Christmas, it's also been a good time to get things done (as I have some time off work!).
Booked the honeymoon yesterday! And the photographer today.
Going cake shopping next week (OHs Grandma has offered to buy it so choosing it while she remembers).
Dress shopping next week and think I know which dress I want to order. Yay!! Feel like i'm getting somewhere!

Jo-when do you think is a good time to get mens suits sorted out?

Also... OH is hiring suits for himself, groom and usher and both our Dads- i this similar to everyone else>?

Honeymoon booking is soo exciting! I wish we could book ours! I feel a bit bridezilla ish about this! (I know we can't- but I'm very impatient!) I did get myself a lovely bag for the honeymoon tho...



It's not specifically for that, but I could do with a large bag for when we travel. I always hold all the travel docs, headphones, kindle, iPad etc, and don't quite now how coz I can't fit it all in! N I like to take a spare set of underwear etc if we travel by plane.... Just incase our bags are lost!

Well OH is going suit shopping near end of Jan, but he is just having a normal suit with a waistcoat. He needs to go suit shopping then before he start his training contract. His best man said he needed a new suit as his old one doesn't fit, so they (we- BM gf also coming up and we will give advise! :rotfl: ) are making a nice day of it.

We are not hiring suits for everyone, but we know that the three ushers all have plain black suits, so have just asked them to wear them. BM is buying one of his own accord. As for fathers, they can wear what ever suits they like, my dad may actually need to hire one, so I may see what I can do there (dad only wears suits for church... So weddings or funerals!) I did get him a free tie from TM tho! N we are providing ties for ushers n BM.

I know!! Only 9 months from tomorrow for me too! Really need to get myself in gear for loosing weight! So have signed myself up for a swimathon in April... N I have to train for it!

Lazer, the venue and the registrars are all you need to get married... So as long as you have the essential bits it will be fine! Besides, I organised my bits really early, n am now in the "it's too early to do anything else" stage! (saying that I may try making my BM thank you cards tonight...)

Where is this from its beautiful!!!!


Just wanted to say massive good luck to everyone getting married this October. Unfortunately my dreams have been shattered as OH left me two days before Xmas!! Absolutely heartbroken. Just wish things hadn't been booked for the wedding. Chin up I guess.

Good luck planning ladies and when I'm ready il dig through my stuff and see if there's anything useful I can pass on xx

Oh Beetle! So sorry to hear that! N just before Christmas as well... well keep your chin up and we are here if u want to vent!

The bag is from a place called temptation gifts. It's made by disaster designs, so just google that. Amazon have it, but it was cheaper from this other place, and as I had already used them, I got it. Soo pleased with it! I just wish they did a travel document holder to go with it...
