I know! I'm annoyed because out of the 88 invited about 12 prob aren't going to come. So where are the other 40-odd rsvps for the ones who I know are coming. You've booked your hotel, send me the flipping piece of card!
I saw two friends on Friday and thought, well surely they'll bring it along... no :-(
H2b keeps reminding me they have 5 weeks yet so give people a chance. Grr.

Did you do anything nice whilst having a break?
CommentAuthorNicsquared
No not really - been having a bad time at work and my pet died so wasnt really in a wedding-y mood :( Had a few "is this wedding really worth it?" moments :s

I haven't managed to lose any weight so dress still doesn't fit! I would love to elope but h2b is a home bod so what can you do hey? Glad your back now we can freek out together!:)
CommentAuthorKate4
100 days! 99 tomorrow!
My planning is all fine to be honest. Everything is sorted. But I still feel unsettled. And a bit nervy. And I can't see this feeling going away soon.
Ah we'll be fine!

Ah they're really nice. I have bought our names and painted them and I think after the wedding we'll just keep the initials and the & as the whole thing is quite big.

i know what you mean i didn't want that as everything for our wedding says Leanne & Jonathan and that would be too long for my mantlepiece

Yeah it fits and looks fab on the venue's mantelpiece but think it'd be a bit self obsessed to have CLARE & MARK staring at you in your own living room! C&M in our bedroom will look nice though.

Did they know you were having a BBQ? I had a salad, trying to be really good this week as going to be a bad weekend
Im happy we have sorted our menu.. We wanted a more expensive dessert and the venue wanted to charge us £2.50 more but they have agreed to knock it down by £1 :)

Ooh well done Nic on negotiating prices! And well done Mrs Mann for sticking to SW, even at a BBQ!
I went for a walk/run last night. Going to run more and more each time til I can properly call it a run!
I'm going out tonight, gift-shopping on sat and have to finish my assignment on Sun as it's in on Monday. The one I did 95% of over Easter and not looked at it since :-S
CommentAuthorKate4
What are your plans re confetti?
I'm not getting married in a church and our venue doesn't allow it, but, I've seen loads of wedding photos from my venue where they've gone outside the main doors and it makes a lovely picture.
But, it's so expensive. I'd want to provide it and i'd want the natural petals. two litres costs about £20 and is enough for 20 handfuls! I'd need 30 at least I reckon and then the cones, the basket etc. I don't think I can justify that. But I want it. Hmmm.
CommentAuthorNicsquared
I made my own, incl confetti and cones :)

CommentAuthorKate4
ooooh pics?!
Where did you get the petals from?
CommentAuthorOfficially Mrs M
our chuch don't allow it in the grounds but you can have it from outside the gates, don't think our venue allows it which is why i got bubbles instead. I've got some confetti that has a straw in one end and you blow it up and then pop it and it shoots it out, had loads of fun with them in the garden, for testing purposes of course.
Clare if you want it then have it hun :-)
I'm trying to stick to it as much as i can but it is proving hard some days like when people bring sweets and food into the office, nightmare!!!
need to get out and about with the dog but its too hot for him at the moment not to mention too warm for me so i'll just have to work out more when it cools down next week.
It was easy at the BBQ dont have the bread with the burger or sausage i have salad anyway so that was fine and the chicken i could have i just had to count the marinade and the corn of the cob was also free as OH didn't put butter on it

Nic just seen your cones and basket! Look great! I have a basket. I could make cones. Then just the confetti to source really.
Lea doesn't take a lot to convince me. I am trying to only buy the necessary to stop it getting out of hand but it's hard when I want everything!
Yeah guess not too difficult to find good things to eat at a BBQ.
I am trying hard but then h2b went to the shop and came back with Ben&Jerrys! I had a small bowl rather than the usual 50/50 share but still v bad :-(
CommentAuthorNicsquared
I luckily have lots of roses that I dried - worth asking parents my mum has dried loads for me and they are good colours and v pretty - I might try again overthe summer to get better colours :)

wow Nic well done. I've been the same weight for about a fortnight. not bad but could be better!
Hmm I don't think I or my mum have any roses in our gardens. My gran might! Seeing her next weekend. If not might have to take the hit. How many cones are you proving Nic?
CommentAuthorNicsquared
Not that many but you do get about 3 handfuls from a cone- I think there may have been about 10. Doesn't have to be roses, hydrangeas work well - experiment with what you have got
I think the sun definitely helps the mood and the diet jill :)

Ooh good luck Jill!
I have 2.5 weeks til fitting. I want to lose 6lb. It's not going to happen but I have to have a goal! I am going to walk to meet my friend at a pub tonight (it's 3 miles!) so that way I can at least say I tried to make up for the wine....
Oh ok. Will see what flowers my family have. I have a very green garden at the moment, no colour as yet :-(

Well done Nic- can I have some of that?!?
Smarties thanks, I'm desperate to get away from my current job and backshift, I can honestly say I hate my current job with a passion, the sooner I can leave the better. Good luck with the confetti x
