Woohhoo, waistcoats have arrived and they're fab :j Have to get new cravats from the same company though as the ones we originally bought are too dark!!

The swatches for my dress and my sisters dress also arrived, and am very pleased that her dress will almost match the waistcoats :j :T
Very excited!!

Just ordered my tiara: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Gorgeous-Wedding-Veil-Crystal-Pearl-Silve-Tiara-T397_W0QQitemZ140241653371QQihZ004QQcategoryZ98742QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I'm now looking at jewellery/BM pressies and can't decide on heart necklaces or continue on the cat theme! I absolutely love this, but may be slightly out of my price range! http://www.collectiblestoday.com/ct/product/prdid-102632001.jsp?_cats/_prod/_/_/_12/_/_/_Y&endeca=true

And these to go with it: http://www.collectiblestoday.com/ct/product/prdid-102973001.jsp?_Pets/_prod/_766/_/_0/_&endeca=true&abbr=ps

Cats are gorgeous - depends how many you would be buying - if its just for you then I'd g for it.

very different but much more MSE http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/P319-CUTE-AMETHYST-CAT-PENDANT-NECKLACE-FREE-GIFT_W0QQitemZ280237072689QQihZ018QQcategoryZ15165QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I've ordered some jewellery from here but it hasn't arrived yet so can't comment on what it's like.

That's lovely - I want 3, so my ones would be quite expensive, unless they can offer a discount for multiple buys!!

3 would be a bit expensive especially if you wanted the matching earrings. I think those cats come in other colours if they wouldn't match your colour scheme.

Haven't updated this for a while, so here's the current running lists!


Booked Venue - paid £1500
Booked Registrar
Booked Music - deposit paid
Booked Photographer - deposit paid
Booked Florist - deposit paid
Bought dresses (asapbay and angel club)
Bought tiara
Invites have gone out

Other stuff bought so far:

Silver sixpences
Name place holders
Organza bags for favours
Cat favour boxes for kids
Silverplated tape measure for Maid of Honour thank you gift (my sis, she knits, so uses tape measures a lot - and she's a jewellery snob, so thought this was best!)
Pocket watches for Groom, Best Man and Father of the Bride


Had quotes for makeup, so will be having a trial at the beginning of July.

Haven't sorted hair yet - we were originally going with someone at the venue, but they've left and they're no longer doing it. I do have someone in mind, but got to email them.

Still need to sort out:

Jewellery for bride, MoH and BM
Hair accessories for MoH and BM
Shoes for MoH and BM
Kilt for FoB
Suit Hire for Groom & Best Man (OH sorting this!)
Rings (I'm hoping to convince OH to get a new ring - he has an engagement ring and said he's happy with this and doesn't want another one :rolleyes: The one I want for myself is reduced to £45, so may just end up getting that for me!

Have I forgotten anything??
