Venue booked (having all day there), Minister booked. Piper & live band booked, photographer will be booked in next few weeks. Have seen my dress and know the colour scheme so thats about all untill March time for us. We get table centre pieces, place cards, menus, table plan, chair cover & sahes included at our venue, so few less things to worry about. xx

Thansk Milstar one minute I do then I think a suprise will be nice....think we will though. Means we can decorate the spare bedroom when were off near the end of the year and be a bit more organised, so excitied. Got my scan a week on Thurs then I can tell the world our news :-) xx

dont worry hunni i started in January this year with exactly the same time to go as you. Get a good wedding planner and ustilise it is my biggest advice one of the girls is offering one on a thread on here then just start chipping away and before you know it you will have most of it done.
Loads of great advice on this forum and if you post ya pics up we will even give you honest opinions on the way enjoy the site i am xxxx

Milstar - if I were you I'd book the photographer and the car as you will probably only have to pay a deposit although I've known people to leave the photographer until much nearer the time and got discounts. If you have the nerve needed that is!
