My amazing spreadsheet I created - I could not have been more organised. I also made a lot of my stuff and discovered how creative I was! I miss it.

I loved going to all the wedding fayres. Even looking at things I definitely couldn't afford, it got me so excited about the planning!

My favourite part was buying my dress, getting it altered then seeing my husband cry when he saw me. Then the big day. Was the best day ever x

I've loved all of it. We both have similar interests and when either of us have suggested anything the other has gone that's amazing. I've loved picking the music the most xx

I love everything about it so far. Thought it was going to be stressful before and didn’t even want to get married in the first place but as soon as my partner proposed and I have seen his happy face and how excited he was I automatically became excited about it all as well. All the planning has been fun so far and I haven’t been stressing yet at all (still have 6 and a bit months to go though so maybe it’s too soon to get stressed).

The cake tasting and designing. Other than that it's all been awful!!

I didn't really plan as such, we had a very simple day with around 30 people and everything just kind of came together on its own.
My favourite moment of the pre wedding stuff by far was waking up at my mum's on the morning of the wedding and seeing my dress hanging there knowing that was the day and everything was finally done.
I honestly thought people who had the post wedding blues were a bit wierd but once wed had the wedding, come back from the honeymoon and got round to sorting out the 'stuff' and packing away my wedding dress I felt kind of deflated ... Im incredibly sad that il never get to wear my dress again and while i know it's no use to me now I can't bring myself to part with it yet xx
