    Congratulations! I got engaged on St Patrick's Day, just a couple of weeks before my 30th at the beginning of this month, so I know how it feels!

    I'm trying to be as DFW about the wedding as possible but he hasn't bought into the philosophy yet so it's turning out to be quite a challenge.

    I'm off to find this epic wedding thread too. Thanks, Lynz for the tip on cakes, I had been starting to worry about that (and I'm not getting married for another 30 months!)

    Molanole, happy birthday and many congratulations on your engagement :beer:

    Congratulations Molanole!

    So come on, details, how did he do it? Was it romantic? Is there a ring?

    Oh and to keep this DFW, M&S do nice wedding cakes (3 for 2 at the mo I believe, not that I've been looking of course..... (just in case OH sees this and heads for the hills...)
