    could you perhaps so the odd bit of bar work in the evening to replace the chinese take out or do pizza deliveries or something instead?

    so pee'd off, aquired about photographer last week and fell in love with her photos and she was free on our date, phoned her up yesterday, to arrange to pay the deposit and confirm booking but shes been booked.

    Then to top it off, thought better phone up and book the car I have fell in love with and guess what thats booked too. There's no other places with the car I want in my area. My h2b has said why dont we hire one for the weekend and get my dad's best mate to drive me to the Abbey and then we drive ourselves to the reception!!!! not sure about that, i think he just wants to get behind the wheel because he loves the car so much.

    Really could scream or cry!!

    dont scream, learn from it. Make sure that now if you see something you want, you get it booked. Thats what we did and the only think i have missed out on (my own fault as I left it only 18 months to the wedding) was that i cant have the royal suite to get ready. I learnt then to get everything booked in as soon as poss x

    i am the impulsive one, Dave is the thinker and the 'waiter' and because of him we nearly lost out on our honeymoon. When inquiring there were 4 rooms left. When we went in to put deposit down there was one room left. Very lucky. And that was a fast decision according to him, normally he'd take a good month or so lol. As long as you have come back and spent a day or two thinking it through and researching fully to the point theres nothing left to research, then go for it. x

    they said similar to me but my hairdresser said because they have sold me the matching veil, I need one to make sure that it can hold the weight of the veil so fingers crossed I can pull it off. Having very simple jewelry so that will help. Just a diamond necklace and bracelet

    tiara arrived and OMG its stunning. The pic in my profile does NOT do it justice..... it is ten times nicer in real life. I even took it to the bridal shop who can be a little, well, and originally told me that I had to have something simple and understated.... therefore I took it to them for the ultimate test. They said its gorgeous and put it against the dress and said it was 100% perfect and much nicer than anything they have. Spot on :) so made up, not too OTT which was what I was worried about. Just wish I could show you all properly. I will try and take a pic when I have time x
