Dress fitting was amazing but turns out I have lost quite a bit since measurements taken so not allowed any more loss lol we were trying on jewellery and gave up so went upstairs to book next appointment and my mobile rang and. Was told I won the monthly draw! So happy :)

Starting to stress over the music. Everything else has so far been a doddle, no real issues or stresses. I love music so thought this would be my fave part of sorting the day out but I just dont know i want the songs to work with each other for like signing the reg etc but one day i think yeah thats great, then i worry is the tempo too fast, slow too different from the previous song etc. Also i dont know what to do about music for the wedding breakfast, do we make our own cd with songs we like or should we just buy a wedding cd thats pre made.

My H2B has completely lost the plot!! His stag weekend starts on the 19th of June, a couple of them are into rock climbing so they are planning on leaving for Weymouth earlyish on friday to get a couple of hours climbing in before everyone else joins them, they will then be having a bbq & some beers at the campsite they are staying at. They have to be up early on saturday for a boat fishing trip, once that's finished their going on a pub crawl, on sunday they are planning on going somewhere for a cooked breakfast then home. I've just asked him how much money he thinks he'll need & he said at least £500..........WTF!! I don't get what he could possibly need £500 for, he said he probably won't need it but he'd rather he had it incase its needed!! They need to pay £10 each petrol, £15 for 2 nights camping, £42.50 for fishing, fri night beers & bbq around camp approx £20 max each, no idea what sat will cost but they will be eating out for all meals plus pub crawl, taxi's etc, sun probably £10 max on brekkie. I was going to suggest £300 & thought that was generous lol.
CommentAuthorWhovianbride
That's mad, my oh leaves for his stag on Tuesday. Going to bath to meet up with his bm, then he is driving the to download festival in Doncaster. That all already paid for £220. And they are getting good/ drink at the asda nearby, do was thinking £60 as that's what I spend on a whole weeks food for 3 of us. And then he will need some money to get food at the vendors in the festival, so probably another £60, £6 for use of the decent loos there so £130, and my mum is giving him £50 towards it.
I'm going Cardiff, £50 for room for 2 nights, £20 for the petrol, toll, parking. £20 for doctor who experience. Well Putin take some of my alcohol for pre drinks, tho I'm pretty sure my bridesmaids is on this. Then I'm guessing £30 post night for dinner, £30 per night for alcholol, to I'm not sure on the plans. Then a extra £50 in case.

Im getting excited now, my mum has been messaging me every other day to tell me how many days, think she is as excited as me! I am the youngest of 4 children and the only one in the whole family other than herself who has got married! To the family it's THE WEDDING OF THE CENTURY! Haha
2 weeks to go on Saturday! :D a week on Friday I am having a Work Hen Do dinner and officially left work before I become a Mrs. The Saturday last fitting, and picking up my dress with my MIL, the Sunday my grandparents are coming up to stay and help make things with me, then begins the week countdown! :O
Busy bee from next weekend! Yaaaaaaay!
CommentAuthorWelshBrideBethan2015
Thanks all for the comments :)
Well my hen do is this weekend with it Saturday late afternoon/evening and then have my birthday Sunday. Like mentioned before I know not a lot are coming due to friends arranging it late and also only small amount invited anyway think there will be about 8 of us. I get nervous with social stuff even with friends and once I'm there I'm fine but I am nervous my anxiety will get me snappy at the people who are there. I just worry it's going to be awful and boring :( my mind is all over the place at mo with wedding stuff and work and stuff going wrong in the house like a indoor swimming pool thanks to a broken washing machine lol ahh that turned into a mini moan sorry all x

Well I survived my hen and today is my birthday :)
Met at 4pm in a bar down the sa1 area of the city there was 12-13 of us and we sat in the sun and they wore boppers and sash and I had a veil sash and other stuff. At 6:30 we went to restaurant where h2b proposed which was across from bar and had the most amazing meal. We walked across river to another bar and played some games and plenty of laughs. We then moved to wind St known as wine street and danced and drunk and like cinders at midnight I could not stay out much more. This morning I woke up hungover and looking rough but I really enjoyed :)
Today h2b took me out for a birthday lunch and of course birthday cake

I know, I'm quite calm about everything at the moment and I keep waiting on the nerves kicking in. Maybe it's because I've got to do the payroll at my work before I leave next Wednesday and I've only got 3 days to do it in (ususally I have a 7 day turnaround) is keeping me from worrying too much about the wedding. I'm stressing about this instead as no-one else can run the payroll and a few hundred staff are relying on me to get this completed as they need paid at the end of the month! Hopefully the body wrap treatment I'm getting done on the Thursday as well will keep me nice and relaxed. Won't be long now for a few of our brides :-)
CommentAuthorLynneN78
Has anyone had any dealings with w3dding m@ll? I ordered items last Wednesday and they still haven't been dispatched even though they're in stock. I emailed to ask if they could advise of a dispatch date and I got a curt reply stating the date of dispatch is unconfirmed, once you receive the dispatch email the goods should arrive the following day, although the email prior to this I was told it could take up to 5 working days for delivery and I would need to pay extra for next day delivery! Can anyone give me any hope or would I be better ordering from another company? Thanks
CommentAuthorWelshBrideBethan2015
Lynne I used them a few months ago for bird cages and they were sent pretty quick!
I had my winning jewellery from my power user prize and they are lovely :) means all the kids and older girls have jewellery now and I have wedding earrings options also using some for honeymoon stuff :)

Thanks Bethan, I know I still have 8 days for them to arrive but I just wanted to know they'll be here before the wedding and their customer service wasn't nice at all. I certainly won't use them again for anything or recommend them to anyone either.

It doesn't matter if you have 8 days left you need to know they will get to you to give you less stress!

I emailed them last night to tell them to cancel as that was now a week since I placed the order with no mention a dispatch date and I placed the order with another company (F@vour F@iry). Well I got an email from P@rc3lf0rc3 this morning telling me my order from the company is being dispatched today. I then received one from the company about an hour later telling me the same and then an email from their customer service informing me I can't cancel as it has now been dispatched, no apologies for the delay or anything. I decided to email F@vour F@iry and tell them the predicament and asked them if I could cancel the order with them. Email back within 30 minutes from them saying order cancelled, payment refunded immediately - now that's what I would call great customer service. So here's hopefully the items will be here by Friday at the latest phew!

Very exciting Amanda hope it goes well :)
We are currently sorting best man gift as all bridesmaids have been sorted :)
I'm doing loads of overtime at the mo so pretty busy! However due to my managers hols in June they have given me my shifts so I arranged my next fitting around them, I had a hol last Sunday so my manger worked that day and is now owed a day and she wants me to change my days off so she can take her day owed! It was a hol for me so I really don't know why I'm having to change more days to sort cover for it.
