Hello all. Just been pointed in the direction of this part of the forum.

My OH proposed on Thursday last week :j

We have decided to get married in Cyprus in 2013. Doing it next year is going to be too much of a faff, as we are still trying to buy our first house and I have a restriction of leave at my place of work.

I'm all excited but can feel myself getting stressed already when I think about organising things. I'm definately not going to a bridezilla. I don't even know where to start

    Congratulations :)

    I started by sitting down with MrD and discussing what sort of affair we were after - what things we absolutely didn't want, and what things we did. Then it all kinda slotted together from there. :)

    Happy Planning. :)
