July 2013 Brides and Grooms

I thought I would start a July 2013 thread since there wasn't one.

OH and I will be getting married on 6th July at Preston Hall in Stockton. :j

The only things left to book are the flowers (which I will be doing next month), transport for the guests to get from the ceremony to the reception venue (this isn't definate though and won't be booked untuil next year) and the reception decorations (I think we will be having baloons).

I have bought my maid of honour and oldest bridesmaids dresses. I hadn't asked them when I bought them so have sizes 8,10,12,14 and 16 as I have no idea what size they are. The dresses I bought off eBay and have paid just over what one would have cost if I had bought it from the shop. They are last seasons dresses but are all brand new with the excsption of one which is used but in excellent condition.

I still have my young bridesmaids dresses to get but am holding off until closer to the date.

The male members of the bridal party will be wearing their own suits so I need to buy 6 ties but am unsure whether to get standard or skinny ties, satin or silk.

I have bought my dress and everything I need which is all stored at my mums so OH doesn't see it.

We have all our stationary done, just the place cards and table plan to do next year but we have all the bits for them.

Any other July 2013 brides or grooms out there? How are your plans going?
