wow stevie-dee how have u managed all that i don't even know were to start

Bex - When you get into it, it's amazing how it all falls into place. This time last month I was so unorganised and so far behind with everything!

i've looked at the same things a thousand, really need to start making some decisions, problem is the travel agents wont help me until may because im not getting married until next year so i don't feel like i can do much until i know i can have my chosen date etc, but once i get going i'll keep u all updated

me too May will be here before we know it, just seems like such a long wait xx

I agree the year is flying can't believe it's March on Thursday - Scary!!

It has been a breeze so far! We chose the wedding package through the travel company & then the holiday/hotel through the same travel company & checked it out on TripAdvisor then went into the travel agents and booked them both & while we were there our travel agent rang them with any questions we had... this was on the 16th feb - we booked up then we went back on the 21st feb to sign the wedding contract now we are waiting for wedding date confirmation then we will be put in contact with our wedding coordinator over there, we are 100% happy so far & had no stress :-) x

May 17th

because next years brochures dont come out till may so the travel agent wouldn't help me till then
not long now stevie-Dee, u will be married and on ur honey moon as im making my plans

Heidi and I will both be tying the knot in May! Wooo hoo


Actually I best re-phrase that as it sounds like we are marrying each other! lol
Heidi is getting married 8th May, and me on the 17th yeyyyyyyyy!

How long did you ladies wait for wedding date confirmation, I am getting impatient lol x

Things are really coming together now, ive been giving prices from the private wedding planner, just awaiting on hearing back from her now then im going to book my date ;)

Exciting times! Can't wait to hear :-)
x

Oh no way, why hun? x

I am so so sorry to hear this! Will it not be costly cancelling? x

Heidi these may sound like intrusive questions but I am just wondering if there is any way in which we can help or offer alternatives for you rather than postponing,
What do you have left to buy?
What do you have left to pay off?
Have you already paid for flights?
Can you move any part without losing deposits?

Lets see if we can help in any way or if there is anything you need that I might have.
We have a villa with private pool that could be available from 20th to 27th May, if you were able to move your flights. The villa was for a family member thats no longer able to attend. It cost £480 pw but we've already paid over half of it, and only have £200 left to pay if you were interested in it, just at the £200 for that week.
My uncle also has an apartment which he rents out for very little to friends and family, I can ask him what dates he has available on it, if that is of any use.

This woman is going to say "I do" if we have to take her there ourselves Anastasia! lol

Heidi you have 2 women on a mission to make you a Mrs.....we should come up with something if we put our heads together!

Will be warming up my wee brain ready for it. Unfortunately need to go bed now )-: as its my turn to take lil man to nursery but will be on here as soon as possible tomorrow waiting for all info to see what can be done.

See you both tomorrow if you are on. xxx

whats an affidavit? aaw huni i can see why your stressed!!! BUT would you not loose out more than that if you cancell now? xx

Going by your list I assume flights are booked, which is the main thing.

Not a huge difference but isnt the 282 for ceremony in Euros? Ours is the same in euro but about 238 in £'s, I suppose it is close to the £260 mark with the marriage licence.
I would seriously ask for a few quotes from different solicitors as our quote for affidavits was £35 each in total.
Rings can be quite reasonable Steve's was £44 from Argos, and my original ring was £34 (although I have now been given my grans) They start from as little as £14.99 and with most do free engraving. There are quite a few ladies that I have spoke to who have bought their rings from here, at the end of the day its the symbol of the ring that is important, not the price tag.
Wedding insurance - there is a specific overseas wedding insurance from E&L which starts from under £20, I imagine as you are having an intimate wedding just the two of you that level would be more than sufficient. link on wall
Travel insurance - did a rough quote for you on money supermarket and you can easily get travel insurance from £9.69 per couple which has a good level of cover, up to £5 million medical expenses and includes baggage and cancellation cover. link on wall

Will have a think of anything else. xxx




Gemma - depending on your hotel and whether they are a well established "wedding venue" chances are they will have chair sashes. It may be best to email your wedding co-ordinator to ask if they do supply this and table linen etc and if there is an extra charge for this. If there is, I personally would try and ask for some kind of discount, they are not going to want to lose a booking for the sake of 20-30% off table linen.

Oh I hope not. I know its something you really want so don't give up just yet, we will think of something. xx

I have replied to your inbox message hun. Not sure of there number give me a min and will send it to you. xx

Yeah I don't want anything elsee Dee :(

Thankyou your a star! I'll try getting a quote from them and see what H2B says.. Luckily he can afford to pay his half its just me struggling :(

I know what you mean hun, but you have the dress, flights, and nearly paid accomodation so the main things are done. Damn affidavits and fees. lol xx
