I LOVE being on sites with other brides hehehe
Just brought this off a bride
Square bird cage.jpg

I'm the 3rd or 4th bride-to-be to own it hehehehe

Going to get some black lace, red roses and some pearls to jazz it up a bit and take the sign off as I have a poem for that and hay presto.
I have a round bird cage so will dress them similar and the round one will be used on the cake table so that will have one of those big thick candle in it! :-)

Ok the tiara I won is here and it looks NOTHING like the picture!
It's pretty but a bit too plastic for me sooooo I may let my oldest wear it as she is my CB or I may sell it but either way the hunt for mine is still on

Will take pictures later

Can you not swap it for one of the others? unless your eldest wants to wear it of course! :) Xx
- CommentAuthorx~Hails~x
Yeah the women said I could send it back and get the other one I like but Courtney loes it (she's 13 and been wearing it round the house taking pictures all morning lol) so I'm gonna let her wear it as she's CB so she stands out a little then I'm going to get this one instead that I found this morning ;-)

They just don't look the same to me and although nice just looks"cheap" and doesnt give the vintage feel that I was going for that I thought the first pic looked like :-(

Oh well cant complain was a freebie ;-)

Not sure if I have mentioned these in here yet but these are our songs fr the day!

WALKING DOWN THE ISLE - Think I want to marry you by bruno mars

WALKING OUT AGAIN -Chasing cars by snow patrol

SIGNING THE REG - Just the way you are by Bruno Mars,
Only girl (in the world) by Rihanna,
From yesterday by 30 seconds to mars,
To the moon and back by savage garden
and Playing with fire by N-Dubz.

FIRST DANCE - Amazed by Lonestar

All (except the first dance one) will be played by the trio we are having for the service and while photos are being taken!
Thinking of having our walking down the isle for the bridesmaids only then changing to Canon in D for me to walk down the isle to but not sure if that will be to much lol

All the above songs will be put onto CD's along with each guests 3 song choices they send us on the RSVP's and these will be used as part of our thank you's after the wedding

REALLY REALLY EXCITED about something I saw today ;-)
Not gonna say what just yet but lets just say I wanted something different for my guests and I think this will be PERFECT and in keeping with my theme!
I've not seen ANYONE have one or mention one yet so I'm gonna keep it as a surprise for now
If the price is right I will get them to do some as "Thank you" gifts for my suppliers as well. (venue dresser, photographer, videographer and cake lady/best friend)
Need to get h2b's approval but I love it so if he says no I may just have to go over his head hehehehehehe

Fingers crossed the quote comes back in budget!

Right I got the quote back and it's slightly more then I was hoping :-(
But I am as we speak seeing if I can find another person that does it so I can try and get a better deal if not I will cut back somewhere as I REALLY want it now lol

Ok this is the hair style I like
hair inspiration 5.jpg

and these are the two potential side tiaras
(the first I have and the second is on its way)
hair comb 2.jpg
tiara i like.jpg

Now because of the hair style I'm thinking I might need a clip/comb as I'm not having a veil
BUT after talking to them they do do a matching one of either :-(
so Ive been looking at this
hair comb 1.jpg

Do you think it will go with either of the above and in the style?

Ok our invites are VERY formal even tho they will be coming from our children rather then us!
H2b doesn't like this but TOUGH lol
So Ive said we can have some fun with the replys in instead so after scoring the net for days and rewording a few bits this is what our reply cards will have on them :-)

rsvp wording
Accept - We/I will be there...

___ Only if there's cake!
___ it's been in the diary since 2009 and it's about time!
___ I wouldn't miss it for the world!
___ PARTY...PARTY...PARTY!
___ 'Cause life is the best fairy tale of all!

Decline - We/I will NOT be there...

___ Kisses in public are overrated...even at a wedding!
___ Allergic to love!
___ I don't do weddings!
___ having pumpkin and mouse problems!
___ but will be thinking of you and wishing on a star on the day!

Then on the back we will have

Our song choices are not to every ones cup of tea so please let us know what rubbish/music you like to listen to
so we know just who to blame when the DJ put's it on!
Our top 3 rubbish list is
1__________
2__________
3__________

Totally stole the RSVP bit but it's SO my h2b that everyone will love it lol
