    How about some background music on a cd of you and your h2bs fave songs, mini trivia table favours, wedding mad libs or a pile of classic board games? We are going to print out our family trees and put them on a board with a bunch of pencils so people can update it, add to it and such so we can check it through ancestry and e mail it to everybody. We thouhht of putting up baby photos or wedding photos od some of our guests as well but that may be taking it to far lol.
    All our food and drink is locally sourced and all the plates and cups are made of compostable corn so wil have info about where things have come from, welsh folklore and English/Welsh translations for common words as it is a 50 50 split of welsh and english guests.
  • Our Sgian Dubh/Dirk/Kilt Pins finally got delivered at the weekend from Stubborn Stag. They are so pretty :)

    They look beautiful!

    Almost wishing I had a bit of scottish in me now!

    Thought I'd drop my name into the hat of 2014 weddings


    Less than 6 months to go.

    I was wondering whether anyone here was having the same debate re fresh and artificial flowers? Artificial are much cheaper and of course, you can 'prep' them beforehand to save hassle. However, can you really beat fresh? Not just for look, but for smell?

    I feel like maybe i'm missing stuff from my to do list...

    We're going abroad so wedding planner is sorting all the ceremony/legal bits/a bouquet/cake

    So it's just OH and I's outfits and wedding rings pretty much that we need to worry about? I can't think there is anything else...

    I'm getting married August 30th 2014, and I can't wait! aside from dress, venue, photographer and registrar do you think there's anything I need to be sorting now or can I slow down for 6 months and start actively planning again at the beginning of next year?

    If you are having reception book that now pay deposit get rings soon accredited for the dress. Start idea for invitations. If you see your shoes by them . Choose a florist carering. Have you picked favours honeymoon invites

    I love being able to say we get married this year. It was our aim to book our honeymoon before we both go back to work following our Christmas break. Now the honeymoon is booked it all feels a lot more real!

    Congratulations all, I hope the planning goes quick and the weddings all come soon. :)
