    am not doing too bad myself - found my dress- not buying yet tho i no what im like!!!

    BMs and GMs are all sorted looking at honeymoons now actually quite excited to get away from the babies for a couple of days

    venue meeting soon and then deciding caterers after that (if needed)

    found MILs outfit

    not buying much until closer to the date as i know i will change my mind on somethings but am buying stuff like the centre pieces a little bit each week - this week bought some blue sand for them

    trying to spread it out as much as possible!!!!!!!!!
    The only people I have to answer to are my beautiful babies aged 8 and 5

    Went dress shopping on Sunday:j
    Found two gorgeous dresses, Both Maggie Sottero. One within budget which looked nice on but the second one was over budget and looked gorgeous and made my mum cry. I got emotional too but am unsure whether that was because my mum had got emotional or because i genuinely loved the dress. Weve looked at photographers and bands and quartets but nothing has been arranged or confirmed.

    Have people met up with these suppliers?

    Were looking at Antony Broughton for photography, Thackeray productions for the quartet and an idie band any reviews?

    Thats good about the dress Mrsds2b and doublemummy. I can understand not wanting to get the dress now, i am worried i am goin to change my mind, but then again i brought it planning to still go dress shopping!

    I have met up with the photographer before we booked them, but have not met up with caterer or band. We did check the band out on you tube before booking tho.

    Oh that is terrible lorna! Hope u and ur h2b are doing ok. I am sure there are ways to still incorporate her into your day, and hope the dress lives up to your expectations.

    no not really , she didnt have particulary great health , but she took a bad chest infection was admitted to hospital and was gone a week later, that bit was unexpected because we were told she wasnt goin to recover from it but didnt expect it to happen so quickly :(
