hahaha i know what you mean i need to do that but i'm waiting to the day you two are getting married so that i can keep my mind on something else haha thankfully my mum has a huge extension where i can put them rather than the spare room as its tiny in there and my boxes are massive!

Very smart! Ah he looks lovely! Is he excited?

I love that deep purple. Lovely dress too.
My OH is so laid back I get no hints of excitement! Think he is though.

i think thats just men in general as my oh is the same lol! that dress is lovely nic and my ohs suit is the same as that but a turquoise cravat :) we have just got back from our venue, been going through all the details and the next time we go will be the day before the wedding to take all our bits and pieces and show them how we want the table setting. mum has managed to make more work for me (as if i dont have enough to think about) she asked the woman if it would be possible to have an option for desert as we have chosen profiteroles and she wants cheese and biscuits...my god has she half gone on about these bloody cheese and biscuits, shes been driving me and my dad mad lol. anyway the woman said that would be fine but i would need to find out who exactly wants cheese and biscuits so they no how many they are making and were the people who are having them will be sitting, so now ive got to ask everyone whos comming to the day what desert they would like :/ thank god for face book is all i can say lol x

yeh we did say that to her about getting it just for her and she was like 'no im not bothered but i no there will be about 20 other people that would prefer it' :/ so yeh ive asked 30 people who are on my facebook the rest im going to have t oring or text not looking forward to that going to take forever! lol no your right there isnt, we are hiring the suits we were origionaly going to get standard suit jackets but the guy talked us in to getting tails x

Its getting so close now :s
I love tails - its the only time most men get to wear them

Good luck with contacting everyone susan - hope it doesnt take too long

My hair is more reddy than I expected too. Gonna wash it over and over to try get some of it out!
I too have done the asda in big hat trip before! haha!

Oooh marquee exciting!

Argh Susan what a nightmare. Hope it's not too painful collecting choices.

My car wouldn't start today. Had to walk to work. Annoying as I have so much to bring home with me today :-( Though least it's a few cals burned off!

I also have a bad breakout of spots on my face that won't go away. I'm trying not to stress, drinking lots of water and not eating fatty foods but not going anywhere! I have a good gel cream that's prescribed by Dr but even that's not working. Ugh!

????

Ah cake, flowers, cards, money, bride and groom mugs, a sixpence charm for my garter and loads of confetti. We had a tea party!

Awww lovely smarties
I keep meaning to say if anyone wants to add me on fb feel free (Nicola greenhalgh) I won't probably get on here between honeymoon and wedding but I'm sure there will be pics on there

i can't find either of you :-( mine's Lea Slater and my pic is me with my tiara and sash on, same as my profile pic here

What's your location? That might narrow it down?

found Nic now hahaha

found you through Nic :-D

me too! lol maybe i wasn't looking hard enough

Good tips karen and thank you - not long til i wear it :s

Did your sis have a good day?

Im saying stuff it to the diet - how much weight can you actually put on in a week?? lol

Me neither! I was awake most the night!

We made our ceremony/breakfast CDs last night for the venue. Another tick.

Going to stick the table plan together today.

But I'm tired.

I think not being able to sleep this close to your wedding date has got to be a good sign as we cant go without sleep for to long without your body saying enough time to go to sleep properly hopefully by the evening of wedding you will be so tired that you fall into a lovely deep sleep. I was told to lay of all caffeine and alcohol 2 days prior to wedding if you can.

Nic she had a lovely day she was so nervous at the ceremony that you could see her shaking but she got through it and had a fantastic time

I'm really tired too - back from town and everything is bought :)
Got soaked though :s
This time next week it will be speeches I think

Fingers crossed for sleep tonight :)

Oh no Jill - whats wrong?

You can loose enough in 5 weeks - if you are really good you could shift a stone
Can they take it out at all?
Did anyone else go with you? What did they think? Im always overly critical of myself, even now i think it looks tight on my hips

aww jill you have done really well to get in it then if you couldnt even get in it at one stage! dont beat yourself up these things happen. youve got 5 weeks to be really good and try get some more weight off, you can do it!! is there any way they can take it out? or maybe you could look in to getting a alternative if it really is that bad? maybe you could hire a dress wouldnt cost as much then. hope it turns out alright for you hun.
ive been for a fitting today aswel, need to work on my arms, my dress looks nice just my arms look awful, half wishing i had got a ballero/jacket made x

Thanks girls x my wee manny has been giving me lots of hugs and kisses, and the big manny is telling me we can sort it if it's that bad but I just think it's such a waste - all this time with my dream dress and h2b has already given me everything I want for the wedding, now when he thinks we're sorted I'm breaking it that the dress isnt happening. Gutted!

Susan do you have pics from your fitting hun? Tell us all about it :) x

I did Nic, was so sure I'd lose the weight too. What a fool! If I'd got stuck right in it would've been fine but it's only been the last few weeks I've really got in about the exercise, even then I was still eating rubbish... no-one to blame but myself. It makes it and me look cheap it's so tight if you know what I mean x

Thanks for that Nic. I've already been speaking to h2b and girls at the store I bought my dress from and although I plan to continue losing weight, I'm going to try to find something else. It's going to have to be ex-sample but better that than getting upset on the day x
