    We've just got home after spending 6 hours dress searching in Taunton and Exeter only to come away with nothing suitable.... The expression 'how hard can it be?' springs to mind! Argh, what a nightmare!

    Mwhaaa, I've seen them on faceyb ;) You do look absolutely gorgeous and so happy April!! x

    So I said earlier that we had an awful day so here's the lowdown! We've had a nightmare of a day trying to sort bridesmaid dresses out. We had arranged to meet a dress lady we found on Ebay but who lives nearby to my parents helpfully so me, my OH and the bridesmaids all took time off work and drove the 4.5hrs down a couple days ago so the girls could get measured and try dresses on. Turned up for said appointment for us to find that she is nowhere to be seen, didn't reply to emails yesterday and didn't even bother letting us know that she wouldn't be there. Disgusted with her professionalism and lack of communication so we spent the the next few hours traipsing round Taunton and Exeter to find something suitable, which there was nothing! Came home and then trawled the internet for several hours and finally found something (a lot more than we can really afford tbh but had no choice in the circumstances) so we ran it past our MOH who loved it and we ordered straightaway before anything else went wrong. I'm completely cream crackered but SO pleased it's sorted!! Here's the dress except that it will be in dark royal blue instead :) x

    copied from May brides 2015 post

    I had my hen weekend this weekend,well spa day and night :)

    it was really lovely, it was so relaxing and chilled,we got given bath robes, slippers and towels,
    we got to use the pool, sauna and jacuzzi, we had our own private room with tea and coffee and biscuits,
    we had a lovely lunch followed by procecco and strawberries,
    then we had some lovely spa treatments, i had a back, neck and shoulder massage with a mini facial, it was so relaxing, then we went back to our lodges we were staying in, we all sat round and chatted and had drinks, then got ready to go out in the evening for dinner, went to dinner, took ages though,then we went back to the lodges to play games, oh these were fun haha! we have some very interesting pictures, we all went to bed about 2.30 (yawn) then we got up in the morning and went for breakfast at 8.30, this was lovely :)
    after that we went back to pack and we loaded our bags into the car, then went for one last soft drink on the terrace overlooking a gold course, the sun was shining and it was really lovely, all my fiends got on really well and it was a wonderful weekend.

    Oh Teresa, I e just read about your so called friend and can safely say she is being ridiculous, petty and you should certainly not be loosing sleep over it! If she wants to be immature and childish then let her, it's her fault if she misses out.nright now you need to think about you, your h2b and enjoying the build up. If she's as good a friend as you thought she was, then she will come back to you :) let her stew for a few days! X

    Is it weird that my heart is having a attack at the idea of it being 100 days tomorrow till the wedding. have ordered my bm dresses now from Da1ntyY4rd, but won't be shipped till end of may, as thats when they are launching the junior bm dress in the colour I need it. am paying extra for it to be sent with speed shipping to get them sooner.

    This is the letter im going to give to H2b on the morning of our wedding cant think of anything else to put into it any ideas?

    1st date Monday 21st November 2005 Waxy O’connors then Campus, we couldn’t keep our hands off one another I said at the time we wouldn’t last three weeks look at us now almost 10 years.

    1st Holiday together was to Torremolinos cheapest holiday ever £300 for the flat and £450 for the return flights. All I really remember about that holiday is 4 times in one day PMSL.

    25.5.15 we finally moved into our first home 33 Queensland Drive after a very stressful week we finally got the keys and we have had 8 happy years here.

    July 2007 we went to T in the park my first and only time going we saw all our favourite bands at the time, Killers, Snowpatrol and Razorlight. The best memory from that is the double encore from the killers I will never forget that.

    The first time we went to Florida was April/May 2008 I know you had been before but it was the first time we had been as a coupe and also my first time can quite honestly say it was amazing. We went back in May 2013 with Connor and again we had a ball I’ll always remember the way that Connor hugged Jake from the Neverland pirates melted my heart.

    The most precious gift we gave to each other was Connor being born Sunday 20th September 2009 @ 22.34 weighing 9Ib 4 Oz. It was one of the most traumatic times of our lives but I’m glad you were with me to see me through and now look at Connor almost 6 years old, our Handsome, Smart, cheery wee guy and we made him.

    Our first family holiday was to Alcudia 5 days after Connors first birthday was a great holiday Connor loved it in the pool and building sand castle with you.

    18.10.13 the night (Well just after midnight) you proposed in the Piersland hotel in troon you made me the happiest woman alive 7 years 10 months and 27 days after our first date, for the first time in my life I was speechless I never expected it in a million years.

    We have had more than our fair share of heartache but I’m glad we have come through it together stronger than ever.

    Our angels grew their wings on 13.11.08 and 27.02.2012 I’ll never forget them they will always be my babies but I was lucky to have you by my side otherwise I don’t know how I would have got through it.

    I love you more than words can say. today you make me the happiest woman alive once more at 2pm today I become your wife and we start a new chapter of our life together as Mr & Mrs Lindsay.

    Luckily the wedding is at 1pm and kick off is at 4pm...there is a massive tv in the hotel lobby so they can see it if they want but they'll miss dinner if they do!

    maybe we can get the dj to announce scores to keep them happy....
