    Gosh leasa your centerpieces sound like ours bar we're having trumpet vases, slim and tall, with purple and white flowers on a mirroir plate on a purple table runner with purple and clear crystals scattered around.

    RSVPs are still coming in nicely, but still looking for ringsd and cake.

    Wine shopping on Sunday.

    I'm starting to worry that we'll never find a cake he's happy with!
    But we have our rings.
    Still need to buy wine, and have to get a move on with flower girl outfits now.
    I've had flu this week so not done anything .

    Oh no - I had it about 2 weeks ago so had a rest from it all.

    Updated our budget spreadsheet today, good to see how its coming along and what we've saved.

    We are considering going on a holiday for a week in the Easter holidays, we are both so drained, I've been off ill all this week with flu and so has my son, we just need some sun, oh dunno shall we just do it? Or are we being crazy so close to the wedding?

    Teresa do it!

    I so want to pay the honeymoon off but this cheque is taking forever to cash; we were told three working days so we gave it to the bank last Saturday so I was expecting it in by now; oh well; hopefully will be in tomorrow :(

    We are still looking into it :)


    Really annoyed,just heard from the printers there has been a delay on our printing job so, we have to wait till next week now, I'm disappointed as I couldn't wait to see them, I know we still needed to make them up but this just puts everything back, at this rate, as soon as we send them they will need to be R.S.V.P to us straight away lol!

    hello ladies! Its been aaaaaages! I see you are all getting very close to having everything done now! we finally got invites out two weeks ago - just waiting for a few straggling RSVP's before I send 'first reserves' out! A friend was going to do our cake, but she was a little reluctant to discuss designs, I was getting very nervous! IN the end I said 'how about you just come and enjoy the wedding and don't worry about the cake?' The relief on her face was a picture! Luckily managed to get a back up plan in place quite quickly and it should be fabulous! Just bridesmaids dresses to have altered and flowers to sort next weekend now!

    oh exciting H2b has just decided to paint one of the butterflies for the table names,
    i did tell him he could just print them off but he was adamant he wanted to paint them,
    all our tables are going to be named after butterflies :)
    so the first one he is painting is a Monarch which is going on the top table :)
    we have 10 tables all together so ten butterflies to paint.

    We've had 40 rsvps.

    Spent yesterday measuring my nieces for their flower girl outfits.

    Today was spent going through old photo albums of our parents and scanning them to make collage posters for our memory wall.
    This part is fun!

    we tried my niece, ourlittle bridesmaids dress on yesterday, it fitted her better than i though it would, as she is tiny for her age, length is good, may need to take straps in a bit but nothing major, she did throw a wobbly when we took her vest off though, her daddy decided she needed to take it off! big nono! she had major meltdown! so ive suggested they cpe back a few times to get her used to it as im not sure she will be too happy on the day otherwise lol! oops!

    I love that song Teresa!
    I'm a little bit obsessed with anything "twilight"

    I'm finally trying my dress next Thursday!

    I've finally got a day off work, the shop called me today to tell me they've finally brought it in for me!

    I'm having an accessory appointment and will take my shoes, undies and jewellery to try with it. I'm going to try veils too so I can figure out which one (if any) I want.
    So excited now.

    Loooooong day! Had a nightmare traveling into central London. BUT.....,

    My dress is perfect! I'm so in love with it.
    Needs a tiny adjustment on the bust and about an inch off the length. Shoes and jewellery were spot on...but not the bra. Need to rethink that one.

    Bought a 2 tier fingertip veil and paid the balance, the dress is now mine!!!!
    And I got photos (will post tomorrow as they are on my dads phone and he said he'd send them in the morning)

    Great news about the flowers Teresa.

    Re-live away Indreamland, I bet you still get butterflies thinking about it all x
