    I ended up having one of my bridesmaids going for her fittings on her own as she lives in Liverpool for Uni, so I went with the other two. Managed to make it to her last one on Friday though :)

    I know, I can't wait. I'll feel so deflated when its all over! X

    Look what I found!

    I was a flower girl when I was 4, (Cue embarrassing picture !!) and I have vivid memories of the shoes hurting, the flowers being heavy and cutting myself on a thorn.
    I looked cute, but I was in pain, and having my hair done was the final straw, the flower headband was uncomfortable and I ripped it off as soon as the photos were done. I'm the blonde one!

    I loved the dress, my mum and dad took it away in the end, as for the whole summer I wore it every chance I could, shopping trips, parties, i had a hissy fit as they wouldn't let me wear it to school!!!

    But i hated everything else, the flowers, shoes, head band, having my hair curled... standing in the hot sun having pictures taken...

    I know Leasa I've been a bit lame recently and not been on here much, works been stressful and wedding is taking the rest of my time, but I will be on here more now. Sounds like our days are much the same at the moment, I only have tomorrow left as holiday then back to work all the way up to Thursday 28th May eek!

    Leasa that photo of you as fg is so cute. That reminded me, after our dress fittings last week we got our 2 fgs together to try their dresses on with a little cardigan - so cute. Will upload a picnic when I'm using my own tablet (have stolen h2bs as he is asleep on me and his was in reach!

    Should be a fun day, meeting my mum earlier so we can look in town for her dress for the day, then meeting my sister, going for my fitting and then have another shop to look in for my mum :) I'm getting really excited now. A little nervous as well, but more excited ;)


    We need to start ordering little extra bit's like that.... we've transferred some money today from the savings account, just waiting for that to come through and then we'll be paying lots of big things off.... like the honeymoon first and then looking at what wants paying off next and will probably just get most of it done as it will all be one less thing to worry about.

    Ahh not long for you two now :) will be thinking of you both this weekend.

    Katya I can't wait to read your write up



    Well tried my dress on today... MY dress, it is gorgeous. My sister came with us as well and brought her professional camera which was a bit embarrassing to be honest, but she did get some lovely photo's (wish I'd known she was going to bring it though as I looked a mess, no make-up and hair all over the place.) I took my shoes, so the dress is all pinned ready to be altered and my veil... I took the extra bits (I have a couple of tiara's and a comb) but ended up not trying them on as I still wouldn't be sure which one I will be wearing until I decide more on what I'm doing with my hair.


    My mum also found her dress today, she looks amazing :) she bought the fascinater which was made for the dress as well so just needs to find shoes and a bag to go with the whole look.


    Also paid off my dress and our honeymoon today.

    So list of things that are paid off


    Honeymoon
    Dress
    Shoes
    Flowers
    Suits


    going to message a few people about bank details and get some others paid off before their due as well, as we have the money waiting in the current account now just waiting to pay things off.

    I do have some pics but they're in my sisters private album, not sure if I can get one to post on here as she's put them on so I can view, but it's her professional one so it's what she usually uses for people to then order their prints. I'll see what I can do though.


    I bet you are tired Katya, all that build up... I can't imagine how you are feeling now. Looking forward to hearing all the details though.

    19 weeks today and we will be on a plane on the way to our honeymoon <3


    How exciting April and Mattsbride.... :) good luck at the rehearsal and hope you enjoy your pamper April ;) sounds like your doing the same as me, as I'll be off to bridesmaids on the Thursday before my wedding to start nails and pamper treatments ;)

    It is, although I was more stuck on what to walk down the aisle to.


    I quite liked Olly as it was sort of like, well the important bit is done now-we just want to go and dance ;)


    I have no idea who I'm sharing a room with for my hen, there's a couple of people who I'm hoping it isn't them as they'll stress me out... but I don't want to ask my bridesmaids about it as don't want to sound rude :/ Think I might have to just bite the bullet and ask though.
