Nooooo have a positive attitude it will be fine!!! Whereabouts in the country are you? I don't think it is going to be as bad as they say and I have a degree in snowology you know * Even if it does snow, it will be beautiful - and better some pretty snow than grey rain..


*not really. I'm not sure that is a real thing. But it is a running joke at work any time it looks like snow

I agree snow is better than rain, and all know there's been enough of that recently!

And if people are cold that's their own fault for not putting on enough clothes

Daisy, are you giving the actual table plan to the venue two weeks before the wedding?! They never told me that, I just did it online!

I'm slowly coming to terms with the fact that the weather is more than likely to be rubbish next week. Just worred that I'll be cold and my poor bridesmaids will freeze!

At the moment I'm looking forwad to being married and all the planning being over. But at the same time I think I'll be a bit sad so I'm trying not to wish the next week away.

No they just need a plan of the tables but I am not getting on with the Moposa thing at all because we are not having the room set out the way it is set out on there, so I am just going to give them a paper version. Don't really know why they need it so far in advance though!

I found the Moposa thing not very user friendly at all, added stress I didn't need! Can't believe it's all happening so soon now!

Just had 2 guest confirm yesterday when RSVP's were due 16th Feb!!

Thing was we didn't even send them an invite. We sent them a SAD a year ago. When it came to sending the invite we text'd them and rung them to get their new address as they had moved in August last year. We never got a reply so we didn't bother chasing them.

I wouldn't mind but I have already given final numbers and this is going to cost another £200 all tolled I'm so mad but feel I can't turn round and say no because they were originally invited.

Also my nan has told all her family not to bother with my wedding list and to just get me M&S vouchers. I really didn't want M&S that's why I went with the place I did. I know it seems ungrateful but why ask me what I want and then ignore it!

Argh! annoying!

I had something similar last week....people were discussing who was driving down from Scotland with who and someone mentioned my cousin. My cousin who had initially said she was not coming to the wedding. What?!?! Turns out she had decided she could come but hadn't considered that it might be a good idea to tell us!!!!! I know it's rude but we already had sorted final numbers, she had said she couldn't come and we had invited someone else in her place and we were not going to change everything and pay an extra £200 for her. So we sent the message that she is welcome to come to the evening but she can't come to the day after having said she wasn't coming!! Probably rude of us and she is probably offended but frankly I don't care...her branch of the family has been so rude throughout this whole thing - have not acknowledged their invitations or RSVPed. I only heard she couldn't come 'through the grapevine' and then only heard again that she thought she WAS coming 'through the grapevine' - at no point has she actually spoken to me, the bride, about any of this, not even to say thanks for the invitation! Her brother hasn't at any point even acknowledged his invitation and I can only assume he also isn't coming.

As for the gift list thing, who does your grandmother think she is?! I would be angry if someone did that! At least they could get you vouchers for the place where you have your gift list if nothing else!

I need you ladies to tell me if I am being a b**ch.......had my bridesmaid round last night. I have barely seen her in the last few months. She and her partner are moving abroad (permanently) the day after my wedding. It's for his job.

Now, I know that can't be helped. I know it is a huge deal and very exciting and I suppose I know logically that moving to an entire different country is a way bigger deal than my wedding. But...........I wanted these last few weeks for it to be a little bit about my wedding I wanted her to be excited and involved, but as it turns out I have barely seen her at all and when I do see her she can only talk about her move. It almost feels like on the day she is just going to be another guest who happens to be in a bridesmaid dress. I know I am being so silly and selfish and I need a slap...but when she went home last night I just felt like crying. She finishes work the week before my wedding and before they had arranged the move she said she was leaving that week free to help me with weddingy stuff but now I was talking to her last week and all her time between now and the wedding is completely jam packed - she is not even sure if she can make the rehearsal.
