my parents have been absolutely amazing lately! my mum found my bridesmaids dresses, all six of them under £60, mum wants to buy my wedding dress and flowers and as if they couldn't help more, mum has found a caterer that has offered 20% off if he can use our wedding as his new brochure pictures AND my dad who is a retired baker has said he will make our cake, no cost! I have said I wil buy ingredients but I'm just so happy! My fiancée doesn't understand the little bits so we are both greatful for their help! I think she should be a wedding co-ordinator! :)
Now I can focus on finding the dress and paying for our church and venue, June 2015 I am ready for you!
I am one happy bride to be! Xx

that's brilliant, your parents sound amazing and so supportive too. Will make your planning that little bit less stressful now and means you can put the money spent on these things on to something else.

My mum just took me shopping for dresses... tried 5 on and there was this one i didnt think would suit me.. put it on it was amazing, mum was crying! The woman put a headpiece and a veil in my hair and just as everyone started blubbering more my parents wedding song came on the radio which made her cry more - taken that as a sign, that dress made me feel like i was beautiful and a princess! Even got a sicky excited feeling still in my belly! SO EXCITED! Xx

We also have been very lucky! We got a cheque at Xmas from OH Nanna that pretty much pays for our venue! My Mum is paying for my dress, my sisters bridesmaid dress and bridesmaid transport and has paid for my shoes (There was no saying no to my mum about my shoes!! I tried lol!) My Dad is making a contribution along with the OH's parents.
Lucky is not the word!! To say Thank you we are offering them complimentary accommodation for our wedding as well as buying them all a photo album of our Wedding each. Still doesn't seem enough though for what they have offered/done for us!
