That's a lovely style similar to what i Always thought I'd have until I chose my dress and realised an up du was more suited x

Congrats Christina
Idl we nearly waited until check in to try and blag it but h2b is insisting on making stuff relaxed and special even down to private transfers in San Fran lol The last few days it's like a firework has been put up h2b behind he's got into organising wedding stuff and it's weird having him excited lol
Amanda I love that styled think the wow is the simple bit x

Amanda that hairstyle is gorgeous! Xx
CommentAuthorTeresa
O&B I over those styles, they will look beautiful :)
More RSVP today including one with a stamp saying time to drink champagne and dance on tables lol
One thing that has annoyed h2b is his mum. We had an elderly couple decline which we expected due to their ill health but we wanted to make sure they knew they were welcome. Children wise we only want his nieces and nephews (6 of them) however apparently one of his cousins has been saying to h2b aunt who told mil that they will only come if we allow the kids and apparently mil assumed it would be ok as the elderly couple declined so there would be space! Me and h2b always has said its only people we invite in day are allowed for day with no bumping or adding to the original list, now h2b is getting frustrated with his mum and to a point his cousin as he feels we are being made to rearrange stuff just because they haven't arranged or can't find babysitters.
I think as he has started doing more stuff for the wedding the last few days the stress is starting to build lol I told him welcome to my world lol

Added stress I just didn't need!
I ordered activity boxes for the kids off Bay of E, the delivery date given was 14th May, the seller has given me excuse after excuse as to why they haven't been sent yet.
I asked again today saying if I don't have them by tomorrow then they are no use to me and I'll open a dispute.
She sent me a very aggressive message back about how she tried to phone me today and I didn't answer, and that's not helpful to her!
I promptly replied that I am not willing to speak on the phone, as I want all conversations traceable.
Yet another excuse different to the one an hour before.
I've managed to get her to agree to send them tomorrow by guaranteed 0900 next day. and I've told her if I don't have a tracking number by 16:00 tomorrow I'll open a dispute and she'll get negative feedback.
I have so much to do on friday, includiong collescting my dress, I know I wont be home, which means I have to faff around trying to get to the post office to collect them on my wedding day........
Now I'm off to the shops to try and source some items to make activity packs for 15 kids in case this lame excuse of a seller lets me down.

We are both in and out all morning, picking family up from airports, train stations etc.
Dropping stuff at the venue, picking up bridesmaid dresses and my dress. I'm going to the venue in the afternoon/early evening. Out to dinner with those who arrived and will need to dress the venue.
Somewhere amongst that I'd like to have my nails, eyebrows etc done but think it will go undone. Unless I can sneak out tomorrow and find a place that will fit me in.
I want to clean the house top to bottom tomorrow as some are staying at our house. We have a cat so I want to de-fuzz everything and change sheets etc. spent today washing everything. So glad it was sunny, got it all dried outside in the garden.
I'm loving every moment of getting it all ready, but I shouldn't be hanging around for a delivery of something ordered a month ago which is 2 weeks late...and she had the cheek to say I was being unhelpful by refusing to stop and listen to her lame excuses on the phone while I was rushing round like a loony.

Got a backup which isn't as good, and next door have said they'll keep an eye out to intercept it instead of letting them drop a card to collect.

Sorry to hear about your bay of e problems leads, I hope you get them asap. Not good to let you down at this late stage.
Its amazing no matter how organised we are someone will throw a curve ball into the mix days before the wedding. My mum has assumed its OK for my 3yr old niece who is a fg to come at 9am on Saturday even though I said no kids in the morning. Our hair and make up us being done last 9:30 and I just don't have the room to entertain a 3yr old at the same time. I then had to speak with my sil and explain she needed to organise her drop off for 11 - had a diva moment then but people were trying to make be flexible, umm no my wedding day you guys sort it grrr!
CommentAuthorthefuture:Mrs_Hurren
Glad you stood your ground Erin x
CommentAuthorleasa
We will both have fabulous days regardless Erin.
I'm so excited I can't stay angry for long. But mood swingy atm. I'm on a prescription of hormones to delay my monthlies as I was due on the wedding day. Think it might be making my temper shorter. They warned me I might be moody for 2 days as it settles down.

oh leasa what a nightmare! how awful she is trying to blame you! sounds like she is just making excuses, why cant they just tell the truth, saves a lot of stress!
i also had to take tablets to delay mine as mine were due on my day also, it took about 5 days after for them to return, dr told me straight away when you stop but my body had other ideas!
Erin welldone for standing your ground, you dont want to be looking after a 3 year old when your trying to get ready, if she doesnt need to be there till later, she can come when you need her xx

Yaay for the nails! Lovely! I've just had mine done today too lol
Ordered the bridesmaids dresses this morning, just hope they're ok when they arrive as I ended up getting them off a website (bridal shops just not in our budget!)
Had our 6month meeting with venue today, so now got timings for the day. Been trying to finalise music for the ceremony this afternoon, not sure the 2 cocktails each we've had are helping lol xx
CommentAuthorleasa
Enjoy it Debbie! That 6 months flew by for us!
I'm sure the dresses will be fine.
We had a few attempts at finding the right dress for all 3 (who range from size 8 to 24) but all 3 look fab and said they love their dresses. Here's one of them at her fitting

Wedding rings are in! However they ordered platinum instead of 18k however the person who we know who owns the shop is refusing us to pay more on my ring! Will be going back in with h2b tomorrow to make sure his fits then only other thing is next week get my engagement ring made smaller as I've lost weight :)
