Thanks Linzi-Jo, she was sort of my baby and only 5 years old, I really miss her :(. We are going to Guardalavaca in Cuba to stay in the Paradisis Rio De Oro Royal Service for two weeks - yay!!!!! I am super-excited about it, Cuba is supposed to have fantastic diving and we are both real scuba enthusiasts! :) x

CommentAuthorKath2010
Had my hen do this weekend was really good. Not sure if you ladies have organised yours yet but would highly recommend the nights at the Holiday Inn near Norwich Airport. We saw Lee Vasey and they were really good.
Saturday we went to Go Ape, I was petrified but did it, yay!! Then we went on some Segways which were awesome!
My arms are feeling it today though! Plus a few random bruises from climbing.
CommentAuthorMrs brown - 19/08/12
Glad you enjoyed yourself, I have hurd loads of great things about the holiday inn :) I have been to there evening events when it was the hilton hotel many years ago (I used to work there) Ive already planned my hen do x
CommentAuthorKath2010
Where abouts are you off to for yours Mrs Brown to be?
CommentAuthorAndreaB82
i havent planned mine yet as wedding still quite far away but i have seen a silver jewellery making class in norwich where you mold silver clay and then bake it to make charms for a charm bracelet. Every lady makes one charm for her and one for me and then i would have it as a keep sake :-) I am also planning on doing something outdoorsy (paintballing, canooeing etc...love that sort of stuff) and then the obligatory night out that my maid of honour has INSISTED i have lol.
CommentAuthorMrs brown - 19/08/12
Me and h2b are having a joint hen/stag party were going to a cocktail bar in norwich and having a masterclass and a meal, 1 of my friends are coming so its going to be more like a stag party :(
CommentAuthorTotallyLovedUp
i am looking forward to myhen do whebever that may be. I plan a complete day of total relaxation and pampering!! my friends think im nuts for not wanting to go out and party, but i never et to chill out so thats the plan!!
CommentAuthorKath2010
At some point after the wedding I'm def gonna treat me and h2b to a spa day so we can just relax.
CommentAuthorMrs brown - 19/08/12
Me & my bridesmaid have booked a spa day today :) Never had one before! That would be a lovely thing to do with your h2b after the wedding Kath2010 x
CommentAuthorKath2010
I'm the same Mrs Brown never had one before, don't get me wrong I love my 2 little ones but a day of pure relaxtion does sound bliss :-).
I think trying to print onto those place cards is going to be a little stressful so better get started!
CommentAuthorMrs brown - 19/08/12
Nothing wrong with having a mummy day off :) Im a mum to (one little girl lola) myself and cant wait to have a spa day! Good luck with the place cards x
CommentAuthorKath2010
I've done them, hooray!
Got to meet the photographer at 10am with a list of must have photo's which h2b is sorting out, just glanced over and he is snoring in the chair!
Then off to Thetford for my little boys karate grading, would normally do at the UEA but since it's the day after the wedding don't think we will be sorted for that one!
My little boy is 6 (Toby) and my daughter is 22 months (Aimee).
CommentAuthorMrs brown - 19/08/12
Thats great :) I think im going to write on my, My h2b is asleep aswell Lol Id love to be!! x
CommentAuthorAndreaB82
I am definately going to have a pamper day, like you I am also a mum (7 kids including my step children) so the chance to relax doesnt come often. I am looking forward to a day when i can switch off for the day and just RELAX! lol :-)

im good thanx linzi-jo :) not really just been looking at different dresses etc... cant decide on a colour scheme either but my problem is i like dresses with colour in them lol so until i decide on a dress then the theme wont be decided. hows all your plans coming along?
CommentAuthorLinzi-jo
Oh I see, well that will make things a bit more difficult then! lol Is there a colour you are swaying towards?
And mine are still at a standstill, went to see a photographer last Sunday which we liked, so I think we may book him, but havent actually done it yet :) xxx

CommentAuthorSaraC1
i keep going towards dresses with black in so i think its gonna be black and something although i really do like navy at the mo
CommentAuthorAndreaB82
If you ladies are going around dress shops could I ask a HUGE favour??? I am trying to find a dress to try on. its Mori Lee 2509 but I am having trouble finding one. Would you mind asking the shops you go in if they have it in please :-S Many many Many thanks
Having 7 kids is not as hard as you would think lol, we only have 4 during the week and then when they are all here they mostly keep each other entertained as there is always someone to play with haha!
I am struggling with my colour scheme at the moment too. never realised it would be so hard haha! I have seen a bridesmaid dress I love in a dusky purple colour but i really like the light green colour scheme too.....not sure what to do yet but as I am going for an ivory dress I luckily can wait to decide :-)

Well I was originally having champagne and gold as my colour scheme and now I have also added coral into that as I thought it looked too dull for a summer wedding otherwise lol and have you tried ringing round shops Andrea or emailing them and asking if they have them in? xxx

CommentAuthorSaraC1

CommentAuthorTotallyLovedUp
my friend had black and orane. i was a bit dubious about it, bt it actually looked really nice!! we are having an olivey (called club green) with a pale pink and a vintage cream, (but not baby pink) i have got my bridesmaids dresses, but i think ive changed my mind about them :s
CommentAuthorSaraC1
i love the idea of black and orange its a nice autumn theme :)
CommentAuthorLinzi-jo

AndreaB82, there is a wedding shop in Blackborough End that stocks Mori Lee. The ladies that own it are lovely and so helpful, I have ordered my dress from them and best of all because I work for the NHS I got 10% off.
I can't post the link on here but will send you a friendship request and post the link on your wall
scrap that for some reason it wont let me friendship request you?
CommentAuthorTotallyLovedUp

Hi Sara! Planning still at a standstill atm! And I did my detailed plan a couple of weeks ago and nearly had a heart attack at the end of it! Hoping it will cost a bit less than what I have anticipated! lol xxx
